Welcome to 6a Montgomery Place, Peebles

Set against a scenic backdrop with lovely views, this two-bedroom upper villa lies within an enchanting stone-built period property and offers an exciting development opportunity in the heart of desirable Peebles. Now in need of modernisation, the interiors present a purchaser with the chance to create a fully personalised home, attractively accompanied by an enclosed garden and driveway.

Take a Look Around

A ground-floor vestibule and naturally lit staircase lead up to a central hall with useful storage and practical wood-style flooring. This airy entrance area offers access to all rooms.

Head On Up

Benefiting from afternoon sun via a dormer window, the reception room provides a flexible space for comfortable seating and a dining zone, enhanced by a classic cornice and a tiled ornamental fire surround. Nestled beneath the eaves, the room enjoys a warm and welcoming feel.

Located to the rear, the kitchen takes in lush green views through twin picture windows. Though requiring upgrading, it is currently fitted with a range of units, a workspace, and the same wood-style flooring continued from the hall. The layout allows space for a selection of freestanding appliances.

The main bedroom is a dormer-fronted double, open to the eaves and framed by a cornice. It comes complete with a large fitted wardrobe.

As with the kitchen, the second bedroom enjoys picture windows framing a tranquil, scenic outlook. It is a good-sized single with wood-style flooring and a large walk-in cupboard with fitted shelving and natural light, which could also serve as a quiet study nook for working remotely.

Completing the home is a bright three-piece bathroom with a WC suite and a bath.

Tour the Grounds

Outside, the villa enjoys exclusive use of a generous side section of the grounds, enclosed and directly accessible from the front entrance. This outdoor space is gravelled and paved for easy upkeep and includes a rear drying area, a shed, and a gated driveway for convenient parking.
