Enjoying a central location overlooking Cardrona Village Green, No.5 The Green is a spacious 5 bed home offering exceptionally flexible family accommodation. Constructed by Tweed Homes in 2000, the property was built to the highest specification throughout, with great attention to detail designed to enhance the overall character. Accommodation downstairs flows well from the welcoming entrance hallway into the sitting room, which overlooks Cardrona Village Green and beyond to the hills, through to the dining room. The fully fitted dining/kitchen benefits further from a separate utility room and conservatory to the rear. A large room which sits above the double garage would be well utilised as a home office but could easily be annexed to provide extended family accommodation. The fifth bedroom downstairs also offers potential guest accommodation with the adjoining shower room. Further opportunity for home working exists on the upper landing/study alongside four double bedrooms, two ensuite plus family bathroom.

The front garden is laid to lawn with a low hedge surround and central rockery containing a variety of shrubs. A tarmac driveway leads to the integral double garage. The rear garden was originally landscaped by Carolyn Spray of The Beechgrove Garden and has been tended with great care over the years. Lawn and areas of stone paved patio are enhanced by mature trees, shrubs and a plethora of annuals and perennials. The rear garden is fully secure and enclosed by timber fencing.
