SITUATION
Holy Trinity Rectory is located at the east end of High Cross Avenue, one of the most sought after residential locations in Melrose. The house is within comfortable walking distance of the town centre and local amenities.
Melrose is a thriving small market town which has a wide variety of independent shops, restaurants and hotels, a health centre and professional services plus local and independent primary level schools. The Borders General Hospital, which provides comprehensive medical facilities for the whole region, is about half a mile away on foot.
The Scottish Borders Railway with a station in nearby Tweedbank provides excellent access by rail to Edinburgh. Both the A68 and A7 trunk roads are within easy reach and provide good road links to the north and south.
DESCRIPTION
Holy Trinity Rectory is a handsome substantial, semi-detached house built in the 1800s. Holy Trinity Rectory was originally part of a larger property and subsequently subdivided to form the current configuration. The rooms are bright and airy with elegant ceiling heights and large, sash and case windows throughout. Most of the windows also benefit from shutters (not tested). The accommodation is laid out on two floors and benefits from a partially floored attic which provides scope for developing further with the appropriate permissions.
The property offers flexible accommodation on the ground floor where the rooms are adaptable. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a good range of floor and wall based units and the utility room next doors offers a great space for laundry and outdoor clothing. The pretty drawing room is dual aspect and there is also a useful family room/study. A very fine stair case, possibly the original, leads to the first floor where there are 5 bedrooms and the family bathroom.
