New To The Market! Tweedside House, Greenside, Peebles EH45

Tweedside House is a fabulous 5 bedroom, stone built traditional detached property which offers amazing potential as a unique and characterful family home, occupying a conveniently central but peaceful position, overlooking the River Tweed, in the Scottish Borders town of Peebles. It benefits from a sizeable workshop/garage with commercial use, offering potential for a home-based business and in addition, the current owners have already had preliminary plans drawn up for the conversion of the workshop to create further accommodation which opens up the possibility for perhaps a small B&B/AirB&B set up and indeed, even as it presently stands, this spacious property already has that potential. It also goes without saying that for those who work from home, there is no shortage of space to create a Home Office. Tweedside House has been extensively upgraded over the years whilst retaining a host of delightful traditional features and its charming layout is genuinely quite captivating. For those with young children, “hide and seek” could be the game of choice in such a home. Upon entering the property, the beautiful traditional features are immediately apparent, including deep skirtings, tall ceilings, dado and picture rails, traditional pine doors and window panelling as well as fabulous ornate cornices and more. The flexible accommodation comprises mainly of the following:
Ground Floor:
The Entrance Vestibule leads into the welcoming entrance hall with useful under stair cloakroom. The hub of the home must surely be the very well-proportioned split-level kitchen/dining/living area which has an inviting wood burner as its focal point. The kitchen itself features a very good range of quality wall and base units with complementary work surfaces, attractive double belfast style sink, electric cooker and oven with extractor hood, space for several appliances, and accommodates the dining table and chairs with great ease. A door leads to the integral workshop. The bright L-shaped living area offers perfect scope for family gathering, with activity space for everyone, and complements the kitchen perfectly. The spacious utility room which is accessed from a door off the living area, offers very considerable scope for normal requirements and more. With a door directly leading to the front paved patio garden, it also allows for convenient unloading of the weekly shop.
The family lounge is situated to the front of the property and with its south facing aspect, enjoys a great deal of natural light as well as beautiful views over the Tweed and Greenside common ground. This impressive room boasts many traditional features and is both classic and classy, offering the perfect place for more formal gatherings for friends and family alike.
First Floor:
The vaulted skylights instantly project a reassuringly bright feel to the upper landing where access to four of the double bedrooms and family bathroom is gained. Two bedrooms have en-suite shower rooms, large fitted wardrobes and are very spacious, light and airy. The other two bedrooms are also well proportioned, light and airy, with built in wardrobes offering the ever important storage space. The family bathroom is very generous in size, easily accommodating a large bath, shower enclosure, pedestal wash hand basin and WC as well as a useful walk-in linen cupboard.
Second Floor:
A further set of stairs on the upper landing lead to the fifth bedroom. This room offers stunning views over the Tweed and surrounding countryside. On this level also, is a small door to the part boarded attic which affords considerable storage space.
Garden:
Externally the property has a paved patio front garden, with several flower beds, log store, and ideal space for table and chairs to sit and watch the world go by. The driveway provides plenty of off-road parking for two cars in addition to the garage. Directly opposite the home is Greenside common ground, which offers obvious potential as a “second” garden, so to speak and there is even a washing line or two to avail yourself of.
In summary, Tweedside House is an ideal family home, with the perfect mix of traditional features and contemporary living requirements, boasting very generously proportioned accommodation, with more than adequate storage facilities throughout, potential for business and home working set-up and perfectly positioned in a tranquil but central location in the sought-after town of Peebles. We strongly recommend viewing of this delightful property, so do not miss out.
