This luxurious home oozes quirkiness with period features and characterful decor. Set by the banks of the River Tweed, in the vibrant market town of Kelso near the Scottish borders, this fabulous home is ideal for friends and families seeking adventure.

Instantly noticeable from the street, with a unique turret jutting from the side, this historic home dates to 1678 and retains many original features including exposed stone walls, beamed ceilings, and a spiral staircase.

Step inside the hall and hang up your jackets before heading through to a cosy lounge which has an inglenook fireplace and several sumptuous sofas. A large TV is hung on the wall with a surround sound system, perfect for cosy movie nights together. A pleasant kitchen/diner allows you to cook up a storm, while a large dining table set in front of a feature fireplace is the perfect spot for tucking in together. Completing the ground floor is a beautifully decorated shower room.

Climb the stone spiral staircase to the first floor where there is another living space with ample seating, a wood burner-effect electric fire and traditional furniture. Get stuck into a good book or socialise together. Completing this level is a spacious double bedroom with an en-suite shower room.

Continue up to the second floor to uncover the two final bedrooms – a welcoming king-size and a cosy twin. Both rooms boast feature fireplaces and share use of the well-appointed family bathroom.

Head outside to the enclosed sun terrace, via the sitting room or the kitchen, and sip on a coffee in the morning sun as you listen to the trickle of the water feature. Parking is available on the roads surrounding the property, subject to availability.
