Description

Harrow House is a newly converted two bedroomed, impressive and stylish semi-detached house. Originally part of the historic Harrow Inn, an iconic building standing proudly and alone in Tweedmouth, the property has spectacular views over the river tweed to the ancient walled town of Berwick upon Tweed, across to the lighthouse and out to sea. Berwick upon Tweed is one of the most beautiful, historically and architecturally interesting towns in the uk.

The house is on a lovely and convenient street, next door to a unique art gallery, there is also a convenience store, hairdressers, florists, café. Walk 200 m along the street and over the 400 year old bridge to Bridge street with its renowned restaurants, cafes, antique shops, a book shop, galleries and independent shops. Berwick is a vibrant walled town with many cultural and historical events and festivals throughout the year.

There is an easy walk to the railway station on the East Coast railway line. 3.5 hours to London and 45 mins to Edinburgh and Newcastle. To either side of the property there are spectacular town, river, beach and woodland walks.

Entering through the front door into a wide, spacious, light and airy hall with column radiator, period style flooring, coat hooks, hall lanterns and views through the glass back door to the courtyard garden.

Up the newly built staircase into a characterful sitting room/dining/kitchen with amazing panoramic views across harbour to the river Tweed to the Berwick old walls and out to sea. Pods of Dolphins and flocks of swans are a regular sight.

The showstopper feature is an antique chimney breast with exposed bricks and a highly efficient wood burner. The room features high ceilings enhancing the spacious feeling.

The kitchen is understated and stylish with tall integrated fridge freezer, built in oven, hob, dishwasher and microwave an extractor fan and extensive range of storage cupboards and drawers. The new gas central heating boiler is within a kitchen cupboard.

There is a large lantern central ceiling light and zoned spotlights on dimmers to create task and atmospheric lighting. Wooden laminate flooring completes the stylish look of the room.

Downstairs are two double bedrooms each with large windows making them very light. The windows are fitted with acoustic glass to minimise any external noise. The main bedroom is large with a wardrobe alcove and easily accommodates a super king size bed.

The second bedroom accommodates a king size bed and has built in storage cupboards.

The modern shower room has a high spec shower with rainfall head and enclosure, a period style vanity unit, wc and storage cupboard. A huge antique mirror completes the modern with vintage vibe.

There is a utility/storage area with bench top and plumbing for a washing machine under the stairs.

The gravelled courtyard has expensive and realistic faux shrubs in pots and two seating areas. A sun trap in summer; a peaceful area to enjoy a meal all fresco.

To the side of the property (not owned) is a very large, 10m wide x 35m long, grassed area giving a very green and exclusive feel to the property.

There is on street parking directly in front of the property.

Harrow House is currently being let out as a successful holiday let. This can either be continued or discontinued according to the purchasers wishes. The projected income for the coming year is £32,200 - £33,680 gross for this financial year and rising next year. Harrow House is only being sold as the owner has become unwell.
