Situation
The plot is located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the sought after exclusive development of Hislop Gardens, located on the periphery of the Scottish Borders town of Hawick.
The historic town of Hawick provides an excellent variety of leisure and shopping facilities, schooling, medical facilities and a range of cafes, pubs, hotels, banks and restaurants. Hawick is well placed for access to several of the principal towns within the region, whilst the A7, which runs through the town, brings major routes both North and South bound within comfortable striking distance. The new Borders Railway which opened in September 2015 provides regular services into Edinburgh from the nearby town of Galashiels. Buyers from far and wide are becoming increasingly attracted to the Borders region as a whole. It is a beautiful area renowned for its spectacular scenery, sense of history and tradition, quieter pace of life and low crime rates. There are numerous activities on offer for those with an interest in sporting and country pursuits, while the hustle and bustle of Edinburgh’s city life is readily accessible. The area is renowned for its Golf Courses and there are several within easy reach including the championship Roxburghe within twenty minutes drive.
The Scottish Borders offers a quality of life that is second to none and in an area of 1800 square miles there is certainly plenty of space to enjoy our beautiful unspoilt countryside and individual towns. Leave the congestion and overpricing behind and discover for yourself what a fantastic place the Borders is to live, work and play. Home to world class activities and attractions, it’s no wonder that the area is so popular with visitors who come here to enjoy mountain biking at Glentress, salmon fishing on the Tweed, walking in our hills and forests or diving off the Berwickshire coast. The area is also known for its’ spectacular Common Ridings, when whole communities come together to celebrate each town’s individual heritage and to cheer on hundreds of horses and riders every summer. The Borders is also a heartland of rugby in Scotland, with the names of our local towns being synonymous with the game and of course Melrose being the original home of rugby sevens. From our historic towns to rural villages, wherever you go you will be struck by the warmth of the welcome in our communities and the real pride people have in living in this wonderful part of the world. With good transport links, an excellent education system and stunning countryside, a move to the Scottish Borders really could be the best move of your life.
