A beautifully considered country cottage set amongst the rolling hills of the Scottish Borders, combining traditional character, contemporary interiors, private gardens and the rare addition of an outbuilding with Full Planning Consent for conversion to a separate dwelling.

The Property

Teinsideburn Cottage is a charming detached country home occupying a wonderfully peaceful and private position in the Scottish Borders countryside, yet conveniently situated around a 10-minute drive from Hawick.

Approximately 150 years old and extending to around 1582, the cottage combines substantial traditional stone construction and double glazed sash-and-case windows with sensitively updated interiors and modern comforts.

Considerable thought has been given to the interior design. The characterful sitting room is the heart of the home and features a wood-burning stove, bespoke built-in cabinetry and window shutters, while carefully selected finishes throughout the house include luxury LVT flooring and a bespoke Roger Oates stair runner.

A contemporary newly fitted dining kitchen with integrated appliances is a light and inviting room, complemented by a separate utility and boiler room.

Two generous double bedrooms are situated on the ground floor, one currently arranged as a quiet home office, alongside a beautifully appointed family bathroom featuring a freestanding bath and large walk-in shower.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom creates a wonderfully private suite, accompanied by an ensuite shower room and separate dressing room offering generous storage.

Considerable attention has also been given to the comfort and thermal performance of the cottage. Internal wall insulation has been installed throughout the property as part of the current owners' programme of improvements, complemented by a new Viessmann LPG-fired central heating system with Hive smart controls.

The result is a warm and inviting country home which retains the individuality and charm of a traditional cottage while being thoughtfully adapted for modern life.

Gardens and Grounds

The attractive private gardens have been thoughtfully developed to complement the cottage and its rural surroundings.

To the front, historic drystone walls and hard landscaping sit alongside an extensive area of meadow grass, deliberately left unmown through the growing season. Seasonal wildflowers create a natural habitat regularly visited by birds, butterflies and red squirrels.

To the rear, a neatly maintained lawn is complemented by established planting areas and an attractive patio enjoying the afternoon and early evening sun. With views across the rolling Borders hills, it provides an idyllic setting for summer dining and entertaining.

A private gravelled driveway provides ample parking, together with an EV charging point.

 

Garage and Planning Consent

Sitting separately within the grounds is a substantial detached garage, workshop and store with Full Planning Consent for conversion to a separate dwelling.

This offers an incoming purchaser an unusual degree of flexibility, with potential for independent or multi-generational accommodation, home working or the creation of a separate residential or holiday let property, subject to the terms of the existing consent.

The Full Planning Consent is formally recognised within the Home Report and has been reflected within the surveyor's valuation of the property.
