Description

Grieve Cottage is a charming two-bedroom traditional stone semi-detached house featuring a private garden and offering delightful views of the River Tweed, positioned in the heart of the picturesque Borders town of Peebles. Dating back to the late 1800’s, the property boasts a well-maintained interior with tasteful décor and charming features whilst offering 756 square feet of thoughtfully arranged accommodation spanning two comfortable levels. With an excellent array of local amenities, parks, and both woodland and riverside walks on the doorstep, Grieve Cottage perfectly combines scenic tranquillity with a convenient central location. Early viewing of this delightful property is highly recommended to fully appreciate its charm and appeal.

With its warm and inviting ambiance, the deceptively spacious interior begins with a welcoming entrance hallway, featuring a staircase to the upper floor featuring storage space cleverly tucked beneath.  Enjoying views over Tweed Green and the River Tweed, the sitting room offers a delightfully relaxing atmosphere featuring a wood-burning stove at its heart, which not only provides warmth but also serves as a charming focal point.  Situated at the rear, the kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to complement the cottage's tasteful interiors, and features a range of stylish wall and base units, seamlessly incorporating space and provisions for all essential appliances.  A rear-facing window fills the room with natural light, while a side door provides convenient access to the garden.  With ample space for a table and chairs, the kitchen is perfectly suited for relaxed dining.  Completing the ground floor accommodation is the extremely spacious modern shower room, which incorporates a WC, vanity wash hand basin, and a large walk-in shower.  On the first floor, a hallway landing leads to two generously sized double bedrooms.  The front bedroom enjoys idyllic views of the River Tweed, while the rear bedroom overlooks the enchanting private garden.  A ceiling hatch located in the rear bedroom provides access to a convenient loft storage space. 

Externally, the property boasts a charming private garden at the rear, accessible both through an external side gate, and internally directly from the kitchen.  This delightful outdoor space features a lush lawn bordered by mature plantings that provides bursts of colour year-round, whilst a lovely decked area offers the perfect setting for alfresco dining and relaxation during the warmer months.  Additionally, a timber garden shed provides practical outdoor storage, and the entire garden is beautifully enclosed by original stone walling and timber fencing, creating a sense of privacy and character.  On-street parking is available to the front of the property.
