About
Ormiston House is a charming late Georgian country house, sitting within a wonderfully secluded plot on the outskirts of the Scottish Borders town of Hawick.
Retaining a wealth of period features and charm throughout, the property offers exceptional reception space and an array of bedroom accommodation set over three principal floors.
The property boasts sash and case windows, parquet flooring, a striking turned circular staircase with cast-iron railings, bay windows-with shutters and ornate cornicing.
Sitting in circa 2.95 acres the property further has the added benefit of a generous detached garage with studio space above and a detached two-bedroom cottage forming what were the original Stables of Ormiston House – the cottage has previously been let out on a long-term basis providing supplemental income, the cottage comprises a large sitting room, dining kitchen, two bedrooms, bathroom and large attic spanning the length of the property.
Externally Ormiston House is surrounded by attractive mature gardens, much of which is laid to lawn with mature trees and perennial shrubs.
Within the grounds is the former tennis court and the remains of Cocklaw Castle which is a scheduled ancient monument of notable interest.
Additionally there is a generous double garage with power and fully floored attic - there is a supplementary studio attached to Stables Cottage again with floored attic which could offer further accommodation - subject to relevant planning - or could be encompassed into the current floorplan for Stables Cottage to offer a larger floorplan.
Offering incoming purchasers, a wonderful opportunity to obtain a substantial home with a variety of uses, Ormiston House is a rare and wonderful conserved country house set within a peaceful location with easy access to an array of local amenities.
