Mayfield Gardens, Kelso, Roxburghshire, TD5

This bright one-bedroom upper flat is located within a highly sought-after residential development, ideally positioned between the tranquil River Tweed and the vibrant Mayfield Garden Centre. The property enjoys an elevated outlook with wonderful views, and the former balcony has been thoughtfully converted into an additional room off the living area - perfect as a home office or reading nook, making the most of the flat's best aspect. Inside, the accommodation is well maintained and benefits from gas central heating, double glazing, and a modern shower room. The kitchen, while fully functional, is a little dated and would benefit from upgrading to suit contemporary tastes. The development itself is professionally managed by a local factor, with neatly kept communal areas and grounds which are maintained to a high standard. Viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the flat's attractive setting and the potential it offers.

LOCATION
Set on the gentle curve of the River Tweed and a short stroll from the popular Mayfield Garden Centre, this peaceful location combines the calm of riverside living with convenient everyday amenities. The immediate area is quietly residential and well kept, with level pavements and pleasant green spaces that make daily walks easy and enjoyable. For anyone considering retirement, the setting offers reassuring tranquillity without feeling isolated - neighbours, local shops and community spots are all within comfortable reach. Kelso town centre provides an excellent range of independent shops, cafes and essential services such as the post office and bank facilities, while the Garden Centre is a handy local hub for a relaxed coffee, a light lunch or a browse for plants and gifts. Regular bus links connect the town with neighbouring communities, so trips to larger centres or health appointments can be managed without relying on long car journeys - an important practical consideration in later life. Leisure and wellbeing are well catered for locally, with easy riverside paths and level parkland ideal for daily exercise, fresh air and scenic views. For gentler pursuits there are well-tended gardens, a welcoming golf course and a lively racecourse calendar which provide social occasions through the year. These options suit a relaxed retirement rhythm: plenty to join in with when you want company, and peaceful corners to retreat to on quieter days. Community and support services in and around Kelso make this a sensible choice for those planning ahead. There is a good mix of healthcare providers, local trades and community organisations, plus nearby options for social clubs and continuing activities which help new residents settle in and make links. All told, the location offers the best of both worlds for retirees - an easy, low-maintenance lifestyle with the reassurance of practical amenities and friendly local networks close at hand.
