Features and description
Kinkell is a charming stone-built three/four-bedroom family home set in a peaceful, private plot in the charming Border town of Galashiels. Originally a Coach House this lovely property has been owned by the same family for many years. Kinkell boasts spacious accommodation over two principal floors. The ground floor offers a generous drawing room, dining kitchen, principal bedroom with walk-in wardrobe, bedroom two and an additional sitting room which could easily work-well as a fourth bedroom. Completing the ground floor is a good-sized bathroom with shower, wash basin and WC.
The first floor comprises a spacious bedroom and study which could act as a comfortable home office, nursery or play-room. Through the study is a large and capacious floored attic space providing fantastic storage for larger items and again boasting excellent potential for further renovation and extending of the original house – subject to planning consents being obtained.
Whilst in need of a degree of modernisation, Kinkell is an attractive family home offering flexible living spaces and a wonderful opportunity for an incoming purchaser to create a stunning family home in a central Scottish Borders location.
Kinkell sits in a private and enviable position set far back from Parsonage Road – a charming no through road on the edge of Galashiels. Access to the property from Parsonage Road is gained via shared driveway.
The property has a large front lawn and private driveway with ample parking for several cars. The rear garden is mostly laid to patio flag stones with a sweeping grass bank. The rear garden also benefits from two large garage/outhouses which – once renovated – would make an excellent workshop, garage or external home office.
Accommodation comprises:
Ground Floor:
Porch, Hallway, Drawing Room, Sitting Room/Bedroom 4, Kitchen/Diner, Bedroom 1 with walk-in wardrobe, Bedroom 2, Shower Room.
First Floor:
Bedroom 3, Study/Home office, Large Floored Attic.
Externally the property benefits from a private driveway with ample parking for several cars, mature front and rear gardens, rear patio and two good sized outbuildings - whilst in need of renovation they would be suitable for use as a garage/workshop.
