Valley
View is an attractive traditional detached property set well back from
the road in a conservation area within the popular Village of Kirk Yetholm.
Situated immediately opposite the kirk, it enjoys pleasant open outlooks,
backing onto open countryside, and offers versatile accommodation which
has been well maintained, but would now benefit from some redecoration.
LOCATION
Yetholm is a thriving rural community situated at the end of the Pennine
Way, with an excellent range of services available locally including primary
education, Doctor's surgery, filling station, post office, licensed bar,
public hall and playing fields. Kelso, some seven miles distant, offers
a wide range of educational and sporting facilities and a good selection
of quality shops. The local area 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 within approximately one hour's drive,
with intercity rail connection available at Berwick upon Tweed some 23
miles distant.
