Description
Parkfoot has a fantastic riverside setting as well as recently modernised accommodation over two floors. The house was originally constructed in the early 1990s and now has comfortable living spaces throughout, with an open plan kitchen / living / dining room on the first floor and the bedroom accommodation on the ground floor.
The living space on the upper level is open plan and has an abundance of light with windows on all sides and a wood burning stove set centrally in the room. The kitchen has a central island with integrated breakfast bar and a range of traditionally styled units with a white silestone worktop. Appliances are from Smeg and include an integrated oven, microwave, induction hob, dishwasher and extractor. Adjacent to the kitchen is a generous dining area and window seat. To the other end of the room is a sitting area and study with a door to the balcony which overlooks the River Tweed.
On the ground floor is a large hallway with spiral staircase to the upper floor. The principal bedroom is also located on this level and has an en suite shower room and walk in wardrobe. There are a further two double bedrooms and a luxurious bathroom. A back door gives access to a covered terrace which is ideal for outdoor dining whatever the weather.
The grounds around Parkfoot are private and mature with a variety of specimen trees. Bounded to the north by the river, the east by the golf course and west by fields, lawns surround the house and there is a large flat expanse by the river. There are multiple areas near the house where picnics can be enjoyed by the river and overlooking the fields with the hills behind. As well as formal gardens there is also an area of woodland to the south of the house. The tree-lined entrance driveway is private and leads to a large gravel driveway with plenty of space for parking.
Fishing rights on the river Tweed along the length of the boundary is included within the sale.
Location
Parkfoot is situated on the south side of the river Tweed in beautiful countryside, approximately 3.5 miles to the east of Peebles. Peeblesshire is one of the most scenic and accessible parts of the Borders, combining hills, farmland and woodlands. The attractive town of Peebles offers excellent local services with shops, professional services and supermarkets. It also has a secondary school.
While Parkfoot enjoys a wonderful rural position, it is not in the least remote. Edinburgh is only 26.5 miles to the north and Glasgow 56 miles to the northwest. Edinburgh Airport has a wide range of domestic and international flights and is 31 miles away.
*Disclaimer all distances are approximate.*
The area is renowned for its outdoor activities. There are golf courses at Innerleithen, Peebles and Cardrona. The Peebles Hydro, Cardrona Hotel and Stobo Castle all offer good leisure facilities and Glentress Forest is a fabulous facility for mountain bikers. The river Tweed also offers many beautiful walks and, of course, superb salmon fishing.
