Location

Castle Street enjoys a convenient and attractive setting within the historic market town of Duns, the traditional county town of Berwickshire. The property lies within the designated conservation area and is within comfortable walking distance of the town centre, where a range of independent shops, cafés, local services and everyday amenities can be found, along with primary and secondary schooling and leisure facilities.

A particular highlight of the location is the proximity to the beautiful Duns Castle Estate, a picturesque private estate surrounding the impressive historic castle and its tranquil lake. The estate offers wonderful woodland walks, parkland scenery and abundant wildlife, providing excellent opportunities for walking, running and enjoying the outdoors almost on the doorstep. The wider surrounding countryside of Berwickshire is equally appealing, with rolling farmland, quiet country lanes and numerous walking and cycling routes to explore.

Duns sits within the heart of the Berwickshire countryside, an area renowned for its fertile landscapes, attractive villages and easy access to the dramatic Berwickshire coastline. Coastal towns and villages such as St Abbs and Eyemouth are within easy reach and offer beautiful cliff-top walks, beaches and excellent opportunities for watersports and wildlife watching.

Despite its peaceful rural setting, the town is well connected for commuting and travel.

Excellent rail connections are available nearby. Berwick-upon-Tweed railway station lies approximately 16 miles to the east and sits on the East Coast Main Line, offering fast and regular services to Edinburgh, Newcastle upon Tyne and London. In addition, Reston railway station provides further convenient rail access, making the area increasingly attractive for commuters.

With its combination of historic charm, beautiful surrounding countryside and excellent transport links, Duns and the wider Berwickshire area offer an appealing balance of rural lifestyle and accessibility to major centres across the region.
