About
Quintessential countryside living awaits in this beautiful chocolate-box cottage, enjoying fantastic access to both open countryside and modern amenities.
9 Clintmains Cottage is a wonderful home set in a peaceful position within Clintmains. With a generous wraparound garden and spacious accommodation, the property is ideally suited to family living.
The main entrance opens into a generous living room, featuring a charming chimney breast and dual-aspect windows overlooking the gardens.
Beyond this is a well-appointed dining kitchen, offering all the makings of a classic country kitchen.
Also on the ground floor is a versatile bedroom or second public room, with the family bathroom conveniently located across the hall, together with a useful walk-in storage space.
Upstairs, there are two large double bedrooms, both enjoying lovely views across the surrounding countryside. Externally, the garden is a real highlight.
It has been extended to create a generous, fully enclosed cottage garden, offering plenty of space and scope for the new owner to landscape, cultivate and make their own.
The garden also includes a useful timber shed, while there is ample parking to the side of the property.
There is also an opportunity to acquire the adjoining garden by separate negotiation with the Estate.
Location Clintmains is a charming village set just past St Boswells over the Mertoun Bridge – surrounded by truly glorious local countryside and landmarks including elevated views over the River Tweed, nearby Scott’s View, Dryburgh Abbey and Wallace Monument.
A great spot for those requiring a blend between country living and modern requirement.
The village of St Boswells is a desirable location and benefits from independent shops such as an award-winning butchers, bookshop with deli & café, art gallery - as well as a post office service, hotel with restaurant and coffee shop, and a small supermarket.
Local schooling is available with the excellent village primary and nursery, and within the nearby and highly regarded Earlston high school catchment.
An abundance of leisure facilities are close to hand with a golf course, tennis court, rugby and football fields and of course the river Tweed.
St Boswells is a popular choice with the commuter being just off the A68, offering swift transport links and a local train station at Tweedbank.
