of unusual design featuring a circular turret to one end, ideal
for use as a country retreat and equally suitable for holiday letting,
having been operating in recent years as a highly successful letting
business. It is offered in very good order with bright, well planned
accommodation on two levels, with a private balcony and communal
garden grounds.
LOCATION
The town of Jedburgh is justifiably known as the 'Jewel of the Borders'
and has a variety of shops, restaurants, a swimming pool, fitness
centre, Community & Arts Centre, primary and secondary schools.
The historical Royal Burgh of Jedburgh lies ten miles north of the
border with England. The Red Stone Abbey on the banks of the Jed
Water was founded in 1138 and the Visitor Centre portrays the Abbey's
turbulent past. The town has connections with Mary Queen of Scots
who visited in 1556. Jedburgh is an attractive setting with riverside
walks and colourful renovated buildings in the Market Place and
Canongate. Well situated with swift road links to either major airport
at Edinburgh or Newcastle, and the main east coast railway line
is 35 miles distant at Berwick upon Tweed.
