Set within one of Melrose’s most impressive addresses, this beautiful Victorian property occupies a leafy and highly sought-after location just a short distance from the popular town centre.

With an attractive traditional stone frontage, the property is entered via a bright stairwell, with Abbeymount occupying the first floor. The apartment enjoys wonderful outlooks towards the Eildon Hills from the main reception room, a generously proportioned space featuring a beautiful fireplace and a wealth of original period features, including working shutters and ornate cornicing.
A second reception or dining room is positioned at the far end of the hallway and provides access to the fitted kitchen, along with an adjoining rear hall and convenient cloakroom. The accommodation further comprises three comfortable bedrooms, offering flexibility to suit a range of buyers. There is also excellent scope to personalise the apartment and reconfigure the layout to suit individual requirements, if desired.
Externally, the property benefits from a particularly lovely and private section of garden to the rear, providing a peaceful outdoor space. The garden is accessed directly from the rear hall, with a right of way around the side of the property. Enjoying a good degree of sunshine, the garden features a level lawn, patio area and a new timber shed, while a further timber store is located at the front entrance.
Combining attractive period features, generous accommodation and a peaceful garden setting, this is a charming Victorian apartment with considerable potential, situated in a highly desirable Melrose location.
