Located in the heart of the picture postcard village of Swinton, this property is close to a local inn serving hearty meals in a cosy setting. Both the lovely towns of Duns and Coldstream are 6 miles away, where you can visit fantastic attractions such as an amazing museum dedicated to local motor racing legend Jim Clark. Manderston House, home to the only silver staircase in the world, and Paxton House with its wonderful gardens and tearoom, are nearby. Alternatively, visit the delightful village of Norham (4.5 miles), nestled by the banks of the River Tweed, with its quality butcher and friendly inns. Explore the Berwickshire coastline (15 miles) and visit the bustling seaside town of Eyemouth and coastal village of St Abbs with a dive centre and nature reserve, where you can take a sea-safari wildlife boat trip or a thrilling RIB ride.

Step inside this family and dog-friendly house into the hall, the perfect space to store your outdoor clothing before heading through to the light and bright spacious lounge. Relax on the comfortable sofas and watch a great movie on the Smart TV with the wood burner blazing or get competitive and play one of the board games on offer. Next is the well-equipped kitchen, which is ideal for cooking up a storm with a large dining area to enjoy family or romantic meals. The utility room has direct access to the enclosed garden. Completing the ground floor is the separate WC. Heading up the stairs to the first floor, you will find two lovely single bedrooms, a family bathroom with a shower over bath and WC and two king-size bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room with a large shower cubicle and WC. Heading up the stairs to the second floor, you are met with a twin bedroom that can be made into a super-king-size on request, with a family bathroom with a shower over the bath and WC located next door.

Venture outside to the beautifully landscaped rear garden with direct access from the utility room and at the side of the property. Enjoy al fresco dining or lazy evening stargazing with a spacious, quirky built-in wooden horseshoe seating area and a granite bench – perfect spot for a morning coffee. Off-road private driveway parking for two cars is provided directly in front of the house, with further on-street parking available.
