Park View House, Buccleuch Road, Hawick, Roxburghshire TD9

Beautiful C listed Victorian villa situated in stunning gardens and grounds

Description
Dating from 1892, Parkview House is a fine example of the work of James Pearson Alison, Hawick’s most distinguished architect. This impressive Category C listed Victorian villa, constructed in stone beneath pitched slate roofs, offers exceptionally spacious and well proportioned accommodation arranged over four floors.

The house sits within extensive, beautifully maintained gardens featuring a summerhouse. There is generous off street parking, complemented by a garage. Internally, Parkview House showcases a wealth of original Arts and Crafts details, including natural woodwork, ornate plasterwork, striking fireplaces and a stunning stained and leaded glass window illuminating the main staircase.

The property is entered via a solid timber front door into a tiled vestibule. Immediately to the left is a WC, while to the right lies the hallway, from which the three reception rooms and the kitchen are accessed.

The drawing room and dining room feature elegant bay windows overlooking the gardens and are connected by an archway. Both rooms boast ornate cornicing, wooden flooring, and open fireplaces with wooden mantelpieces. The sitting room / study also enjoys garden views and includes fitted bookshelves flanking an open fireplace with a tiled surround and wooden mantelpiece.

The kitchen, accessible from both the hallway and dining room, is beautifully appointed with wooden base and wall units topped with solid granite surfaces. Fitted with a ceramic Belfast sink, and a gas range cooker with double oven and extractor fan. Adjacent is a utility room with a sink, dishwasher and boot room facilities, and a door leading to the side garden.

From the central hallway, a staircase rises past a stunning Arts and Crafts stained-glass window, complemented by a bespoke bookshelf below. On the first floor, there are four bedrooms, two of which share an en suite bathroom with a bath and separate shower. The family bathroom, located near the stairs to the attic, offers a bath, WC, and washbasin. The attic level provides a further double bedroom/playroom and a single bedroom/office.

The lower ground floor, accessed via stairs from the kitchen, comprises a laundry room with original sinks, housing the hot water tank and boiler. This level also includes a TV room, bathroom, small boot room, and store, with direct garden access offering potential as a self-contained flat.

Outside
The property is approached from Buccleuch Road via a chipped in and out driveway, allowing easy entry and exit and ample parking. The enclosed grounds feature mature broadleaf and conifer trees, manicured lawns, herbaceous borders, and vibrant flower beds. There is a landscaped kitchen garden with outdoor eating area, patio and raised beds. Paved and chipped paths surround the house, and a large lawn extends to the summer house, beyond which is an orchard of fruit trees and additional space for vegetable planting.

Location
Hawick is centrally located for all the Scottish Borders market towns, as well as being only 45 miles from Edinburgh. The town is well situated with good transport links: The terminus of the Scottish Borders Railway is 20 miles north, while both mainline train services and Newcastle Airport are 52 miles to the southeast.

The town, famous for its textile industry which dates back centuries, with its connection to cashmere production still very much alive today, offers a wide range of services including supermarkets, hotels, restaurants, professional services and a primary and secondary school. The town is an integral part of the Cashmere Trail and is the major remaining centre for that industry in the Borders. In addition the town hosts a number of spectacular events throughout the year, including the world famous Common Riding.

The Borders area is well known for its high quality field sports, including first class grouse shooting in the Lammermuir Hills and a number of extremely well run pheasant shoots. The River Tweed and its tributaries are internationally known for the quality of their salmon and sea trout fishing. Numerous local golf courses, including the Roxburghe Championship Course near Kelso, cater for golf enthusiasts. The area also has plenty of walking trails and cycling routes for those wanting to keep fit.
