This
house occupies a unique position on the very edge of a popular,
attractive and quiet residential development, sitting at a southerly
point within the town, with the result that it enjoys absolutely
spectacular views to the front, side and rear and a very good degree
of privacy. It has recently been completely redecorated in popular,
neutral, contemporary tones, and is immaculately presented, offering
particularly spacious accommodation, with the advantage of both
front and rear gardens, and a large open area of ground nearby ideal
for children.
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.
DIRECTIONS
Travelling into Jedburgh on the A68 south from Edinburgh, take the
last left hand turn into Oxnam Road at the Swimming Pool. Continue
for approx half a mile, turning right into Blair Avenue. Continue
along this road which bears left towards the end. 80 Howden Drive
is on the right hand side.

the parking area to the front gate, and steps to the covered entrance.
