Offers Over £430,000

1 Kirkpark is a substantial 4/5 bedroomed detached family home, offering very spacious well-planned accommodation with a great layout. Built in 2004, this property is perfect for those with a blended/extended family and it includes a large highly adaptable room built over the garage, ideal as a fifth/guest bedroom, a teens rumpus room or a spacious home office enjoying a slight sense of separation from the hustle and bustle of the house. Whilst already spacious, the position of the property and size of the plot upon which it sits (approx. just under 1/3rd acre) gives possibilities for extension if required, subject to all necessary planning applications and consents.

Kirkpark is a small cul-de-sac development of individually designed quality homes within the small village of Westruther. The semi rural yet readily accessible location will appeal to those seeking a quieter lifestyle and sense of community, yet need to be in easy reach of the city and major road links. Edinburgh is readily commutable either via the A697 or by train from Stow or Tweedbank whilst the increasingly sought after town of Lauder is just a few minutes drive away.

The accommodation comprises: five double bedrooms (two of which have modern en-suites, with the principal including a spa bath and separate shower cubicle), a recently updated family shower room, a sitting room opening to the garden, a dining room, a study, an open plan family room/kitchen with French Doors to the garden, a utility room with WC and an additional WC in the hall. There is oil fired heating, the windows are double glazed and there is good storage throughout, including a useful partly floored attic.

Externally parking is well catered for by a gravelled driveway, along with a large garage entered by new electric doors, providing secure parking as well as access into the utility room. There are sections of grass to front and side, whilst to the rear the garden is an excellent size for entertaining and family life, currently laid mainly to grass for ease of upkeep but offering lots of potential for the gardening enthusiast. The perimeter has recently been planted with beech hedging and there is also a new shed and fencing.
