Finished to an exceptional standard and ready to move straight into.
Summary 161 Roxburgh Street is an exceptional example of a complete property transformation, having been stripped back to the brick and thoughtfully renovated to create a beautifully bright, airy and contemporary three-bedroom home.
Situated in the heart of Kelso, this impressive property combines characterful features with stylish modern finishes and has been presented in immaculate, turn-key condition throughout.
The welcoming entrance hallway leads into a beautifully appointed lounge, where a focal point stove creates a cosy and inviting atmosphere.
The accommodation then flows seamlessly into the impressive open-plan kitchen and dining space, which is flooded with natural light from a large skylight.
French doors open directly onto the private courtyard, creating a wonderful setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. A contemporary WC completes the ground floor.
Upstairs, the generous master bedroom benefits from excellent built-in storage and access to a stunning Jack and Jill bathroom, finished with a walk-in shower and freestanding bath.
The second floor provides a further double bedroom, featuring the charming rediscovered turret detail, alongside a well-proportioned single bedroom.
The extensive renovation continues externally, with the roof fully replaced and the exterior repainted, giving the property a fresh and modern appearance.
The communal garden has also been thoughtfully improved, with the lawn replanted to provide a useful drying area.
No detail has been overlooked in this impressive transformation, which includes a new boiler and complete rewiring, creating a considerably more energy-efficient home.
Offering stylish accommodation with little or nothing left to do, 161 Roxburgh Street would make an excellent family home, lock-up-and-leave property or investment opportunity, all within the heart of Kelso.
