Description

Boasting a stunning setting on the banks of the river Whiteadder, yet only a few miles from Duns, Braeside House is a distinctive barn conversion offering sizeable and highly adaptable accommodation

Braeside House - Set within a peaceful riverside setting, Braeside House is a truly distinctive barn conversion offering character, space, and privacy in equal measure. Occupying an elevated position with open views towards the river Whiteadder, the property enjoys a generous wraparound plot, where the gardens provide a wonderful sense of seclusion and the gentle sound of the river forms a tranquil backdrop.

Situated just a few miles from Duns, the home perfectly balances rural charm with convenient access to local amenities and schooling. The current owners have thoughtfully extended the property, adding valuable practical space including a well-appointed utility room and an exceptional garden room.

Inside, the spacious and versatile accommodation adapts effortlessly to modern family living. The flexible layout provides excellent options for home working, while also offering the potential for multi-generational living. If desired, a self-contained annex with its own private access could easily be created.
