Linton Burnfoot Farm comprises a traditional stone-built farmhouse with a range of farm outbuildings, approximately 12.95 ha (31.99 acres) of land, a tennis court, a former outdoor arena, and private pond.
The Farmhouse was built circa 1750s and boasts well-proportioned rooms with many original features and enjoys a south facing aspect with enviable views to the Cheviot Hills.
The house is accessed from a private tree lined driveway and offers ample parking. Leading from the front door there is an entrance porch which opens to the main hallway from which the ground floor accommodation is accessible. There are three reception rooms with individual wood burning stoves and a library room located to the rear of the house with fitted bookshelves, perfect for the avid reader. The heart of the house is the spacious breakfasting kitchen with oil-fired AGA and a pleasing place for a kitchen table. The sunroom, overlooking the garden, is the perfect spot to sit and relax in the evening, with French doors leading to the garden patio area. The rear door leads to a boot room, WC, and drying room, perfect place for muddy boots.
An impressive timber staircase leads to the first floor, providing access to four bedrooms with master en-suite bathroom and dressing room. A relaxing sitting room/nursery adjoins the master bedroom with study, box room and shower room completing the first floor. A further staircase leads to the second-floor landing offering, two generous size bedrooms. The accommodation is laid out in more detail in the floorplans contained within this brochure.
SITUATION
With the Cheviot Hills to the south, the central
Scottish Borders offer some of the most beautiful and varied countryside in the south of Scotland. Linton Burnfoot sits at the foot of Linton Hill in a valley spanning the Kale water. Providing a peaceful, private setting, yet accessible.
The Scottish Borders which is also referred to simply as the Borders, stretches from the Pentland, Moorfoot and Lammermuir Hills that mark the boundary with the Lothians in the north, to the Cheviot Hills which, along with the River Tweed, mark the border with England in the south. This is also wonderful riding country, with pony clubs and equestrian events. The Cheviot Hills to the south offer an expansive and idyllic landscape for those keen to explore the countryside on foot.
The charming village of Morebattle is just 1.5 miles south of the farm and is at the heart of the local community with a traditional inn and a well-supported community run shop and post office. There is also a local primary school in the village served by a free school bus which passes the farm. Secondary state schooling is available at Kelso High School which boasts excellent modern facilities. There is also a good choice of private schools including St Mary’s and Mowden Hall (preparatory only) and there are many private schools near Edinburgh.
Kelso, arguably the most attractive of the Borders towns is set in an area of great scenic beauty and is noted particularly for its fine Market Square and for the remains of one of the great Border Abbeys. The town sits at the confluence of the River Tweed and the River Teviot. Kelso provides a good shopping centre together with an excellent range of social and sporting facilities including golf, bowls, tennis, swimming, curling and fishing. Kelso racecourse is within 1 mile of the town centre and the local golf course The Roxburghe, the championship golf course at Sunlaws, lies 8.5 miles from Linton Burnfoot.
