General
DESCRIPTION
This former gamekeeper's residence is one of the most desirable houses on magnificent Glen Estate. Set within its own mature gardens and crafted to fine Victorian standards, the property stands above the estate's parks with views across to the Mansion loch, Fethan woods and the high moors beyond.
The sitting room, dining room/kitchen, utility room, 4 bedrooms, and bathroom have many period features such as fireplaces, extensive mouldings, and window shutters. The kennel building in the adjacent yard could have alternate uses such as pony stables, art studio, or home office. Pastureland for horses is available under separate arrangement.
Renowned for its secluded beauty, the 5000 acres of Glen Estate reach from the woods and parklands in its private valley to the moors above, forming an ideal backdrop for a comfortable country life. The unspoilt Tweed Valley - Borders setting is well known for its villages and outdoor pursuits. Local shops and services are available in Innerleithen (3 miles) with even more choice in the attractive town of Peebles (10 miles) whilst Edinburgh is only 30 miles away.
