Gourlays Wynd, Duns, Berwickshire, TD11

An unassuming maisonette from the street, this cleverly designed home reveals a truly surprising interior. The property benefits from its own private entrance, opening into a spacious vaulted hallway with a galleried landing above. Velux rooflights flood this impressive space with natural light, creating an immediate sense of openness. The generous yet cosy living room flows seamlessly into the kitchen/dining area, where French doors open directly onto a patio. Beyond this, the garden is positioned at first-floor level, ingeniously creating the feel of a house rather than a maisonette. Also on this level is a well-proportioned double bedroom, a large shower room with a high ceiling and Velux rooflight, and a spacious understairs cupboard providing excellent storage. Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to a smaller bedroom with built-in wardrobes and an impressive principal bedroom. This in turn connects to a bright en-suite bathroom featuring a Velux rooflight and a distinctive porthole-style round window. The property further benefits from double glazing, gas central heating, and is presented in good, clean decorative order. While some of the decor is bold, it offers an excellent opportunity for a new owner to personalise and make their own mark.
