Off the kitchen on the ground floor an excellent conservatory provides an ideal additional living space. The dual aspect sitting room features a wood burning stove and can easily be adapted for a variety of configurations. On the first floor all 4 bedrooms have nice views over the surrounding area. There is excellent built in storage throughout.
The former integrated garage can be accessed from the kitchen and has been converted into a useful utility and storage room.
ACCOMMODATION
Ground Floor:
kitchen, sitting room, conservatory, shower room
First Floor:

GARDEN AND GROUNDS
The garden and grounds at 213 Galashiels Road are particularly generous. There are mature trees and shrubs around the grounds but particularly at the bottom of the front garden. The house is approached by a shared driveway leading to a parking area and turning circle. The front garden is mostly laid to lawn. The grounds continue to the side and rear of the house. The owner currently has a decked terrace, raised beds and decorative borders in the sheltered area at the side of the house. Further up the garden slopes areas to encourage diverse wildlife have been created.
There are several outbuildings within the grounds including a partially lined workshop, 2 timber storage sheds and a greenhouse. There is an opportunity to create a home office or hobby room within the grounds.
