Dalveen
is a most attractive, substantial traditional house of considerable character,
believed to date from the mid Eighteen Hundreds. It occupies a convenient
central location within the town and is unusual in having the benefit
of an absolutely delightful, predominantly south facing walled garden
which is an absolute suntrap in the Summer months. Carefully and sympathetically
renovated and upgraded over the years, the house offers bright and spacious
accommodation, some windows with the benefit of double glazing and with
oil fired central heating, an original stone outbuildings towards the
rear having been fully upgraded and incorporated into the house with a
sun room to one side.
LOCATION
The picturesque village of Town Yetholm nestles at the foot of Yetholm
Law with views across the Bowmont Water to the Cheviot Hills. The village
is well accommodated with good bus connections, a church, primary school,
two pubs, local shops, visiting library and Doctor's surgery and is also
close to the amenities of the town of Kelso, seven miles distant, which
has good educational and sporting facilities and quality shops. Yetholm
is situated at the end of the historic Pennine Way and has much to offer
those interested in country pursuits with Tweed fishing, National Hunt
racing and walking in the Cheviot Hills. Both Edinburgh and Newcastle,
with their International airports, are easily commutable in around one
hour's drive, with Berwick upon Tweed and its Intercity rail connection
23 miles distant.
