18 Lady Moss is a deceptively spacious two-bedroom detached bungalow located in Tweedbank, which lies halfway between the Borders towns of Melrose and Galashiels.
Requiring a degree of modernisation, the property offers great potential, with scope to extend the existing accommodation, subject to the necessary permissions, and enjoys an excellent position within a sought-after cul-de-sac.
The property is only a short distance from the Borders Railway, which runs from Tweedbank to Edinburgh, and is a particular feature of this desirable location, whilst also benefitting from views back towards the Eildon Hills.
Internally, the house lies across one level and comprises two bedrooms, a bathroom, a sitting room with dining space, a kitchen and a conservatory. With a useful front porch, there is good cupboard space and fitted wardrobes to both bedrooms plus a part floored attic offering additional storage.
Externally, the property has private driveway parking for two cars and an attached garage, with garden ground to the front and side. Sloping paths provide easy access and the surprisingly sized garden lies pre-dominantly to the rear; a particular feature of this property with access from the conservatory as well as the porch. With generous lawn, mature trees and deep well stocked borders it is a peaceful and private setting, and a patio area provides an excellent space for informal entertaining.
Edinburgh is easily accessible via the A68, or the A7 with most Borders towns readily available from this central location, as well as via the aforementioned Borders Railway.

Location:
18 Lady Moss is located in the popular village of Tweedbank which is the home for the terminus of the Borders Railway which runs from Tweedbank to Edinburgh.
Situated between Melrose and Galashiels, Tweedbank benefits from a popular restaurant, a shop, and a primary school, with secondary schooling at Galashiels Academy. With an approximate population of 1700 there is also sports centre, with running track, all weather hockey pitches, indoor bowling and a thriving industrial park.
The Borders General Hospital, the largest hospital in the Scottish Borders is only a mile or so away, on the fringes of Melrose.
The old mill town of Galashiels to the West - with a population of 12,000, offers a full range of shopping facilities, including Tesco, ASDA, Boots, Next, WH Smith and Marks & Spencer.
Local tourist attractions include Old Gala House and Abbotsford House, the former home of Sir Walter Scott, with its award winning visitor centre as well as many other attractions in nearby Melrose and other Border towns. Among the independent shops there is also a cinema, a health centre, a swimming pool, gym, dentists, orthodontist and a new Transport Interchange built primarily around the new train station in conjunction with the Borders Railway which is a particular bonus. Local sports teams include Gala RFC and Gala Fairydean FC, and local festivals include the historic Common Ridings held in the summer which is of particular note.
There are also a variety of outdoor pursuits in the area that include fishing on the River Tweed, fieldsports, horse riding, golf, lawn bowling, mountain biking, and a selection of walks including the Southern Upland Way.
Galashiels has six primary schools, and nearby Melrose is home to St Marys Preparatory School and secondary schooling is at Galashiels Academy. The Borders College and Heriot Watt University also have a campus in the town, and there are also a number of churches in the area.
Galashiels sits in an easily accessible area and can be reached by the A7 which runs through the town and provides the links to Edinburgh or the north of England. The area is also served by the Borders Railway which runs from Tweedbank to Edinburgh, with a station in the town. There is also a busy bus service which runs from the Interchange, beside the railway with links to Newcastle and Carlisle in the South, as well as Edinburgh and the other Border towns.
Edinburgh and Newcastle airports - both international, offer an excellent choice of destinations and are 43 miles and 66 miles away respectively.
