About this property
Nestled within the prestigious Kingsmeadows House development in the picturesque Borders town of Peebles, a two-bedroom lower ground floor apartment with breathtaking views of the River Tweed. Apartment 4 is one of twelve distinctive residences within the former late 1700’s Georgian country mansion house, tastefully converted preserving many original features. Rich in charm and character both inside and out, the apartment offers a comfortable and well-considered layout extending to approximately 1218 square feet. Occupying a peaceful and secluded setting within around 17 acres of mature grounds, yet just a short stroll from the vibrant town centre, with its excellent array of coffee shops, bars, restaurants, and independent shops, this property is sure to appeal to a wide range of buyers. Early viewing is highly recommended.
Approached via a picturesque tree-lined driveway, the impressive building provides a fabulous first impression. Apartment 4 is accessed through the main entrance, leading into an inviting circular hallway with a turning staircase descending to the lower ground level. Beautifully presented with stylish interiors, the layout opens into a bright and airy hallway, providing access to all accommodation, along with the added benefit of an essential storage cupboard. Bathed in natural light from dual-aspect windows to the side and rear of the building, the magnificent open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area is generously proportioned, providing an exceptionally sociable yet cosy setting to entertain or unwind, all while enjoying riverside views and beautiful surroundings. The sitting area boasts a traditional fireplace, and though for decorative purposes only, offers a true focal point. The dining area is filled with natural light, thanks to the addition of external French doors that offer both picturesque views and direct access to the riverside gardens. The stylish, contemporary fitted kitchen is seamlessly integrated with quality Siemens appliances, including an electric hob with extractor above, electric oven, dishwasher, and fridge freezer. An adjacent utility cupboard conveniently houses the washing machine. There are two exceptionally spacious and comfortable bedrooms, each offering ample room for a variety of free-standing furniture and enjoying uninterrupted views over the River Tweed. Completing he accommodation is the modern family bathroom comprising a sleek fitted vanity unit incorporating a WC and wash hand basin, and an adjacent p-shaped bath with mains rain-fall shower over. Located within the lower ground hallway is an extremely useful lockable store providing secure practical storage space.
Externally; the property is set within approximately 17 acres of mature, garden grounds, shared exclusively by the twelve residences. The immediate gardens surrounding the house are beautifully maintained, ideal for enjoying alfresco moments during the warmer months, perhaps with a picnic and refreshing aperitif on the banks of the River Tweed. Beyond these manicured spaces, the wider grounds transition into enchanting woodlands filled with mature trees and lush shrubbery, offering perfectly peaceful walks for exploration. Ample resident and visitor parking is available at the front of the property.
