* Country Cottage In A Stunning Riverside Location. *
Dogcraig Cottage is a charming, unique property, set in an elevated position on the banks of the iconic River Tweed. The property forms what was originally the outbuildings of a 200+ year old corn mill built for the nearby Kailzie Estate. Scotsmill is now a semi-rural collection of four houses approximately 1 mile distant to the bustling county town of Peebles.
The front door opens into a wide entrance hall, there is a large sitting room with central fireplace and triple aspect windows, coat cupboard and a WC. The well-equipped kitchen boasts AGA cooker. Off the bright hallway, are two good sized double bedrooms, a smaller bedroom currently utilised as a dining room, a main bathroom and a deep storage cupboard. From the kitchen, there is a large timber decked balcony from which the river views and garden are best appreciated.
Externally the house sits in a generous plot with a laid lawn, mature trees, planted flower beds and stone and timber shed with ample storage for bikes. To the top of the driveway there is an area which has the potential to make a productive garden, hardstanding or, dependent upon planning permission, a detached garage.
Subject to the relevant planning being obtained, Dogcraig offers great potential to extend, either from the gable end or out from the decked balcony adding further living space.
The River Tweed can be accessed from the property. However, permission for salmon and trout fishing may be able to be obtained via Kailzie Estate who own several miles of single bank fishing.
Accommodation comprises:
Ground Floor:
Entrance hallway, sitting room, kitchen, WC, bathroom, two double bedrooms & single bedroom.
Externally the property benefits from a large driveway, private garden and storage shed.
Situation:
Peebles is a hugely popular market town with a population of around 9000. Amenities within Peebles include the Eastgate Theatre and Arts Centre, a swimming pool, the Gytes Leisure Centre, independent retailers, popular restaurants as well as national supermarkets and shops. The town also benefits from a health centre, dentists, banks and vets as well as well-regarded primary and secondary schools.
Peebles is well placed for those looking to live in a semi-rural location whilst being within a commutable distance of Edinburgh city centre, which is just a 24-mile drive away, and a frequent bus service provides access to the Capital as well as other local towns. The A703 provides easy access to the Edinburgh City Bypass.
