The property is situated on South Street just off the village green in a desirable residential location. The surrounding streets are popular with homeowners and families looking to be within a close distance to the nearby primary and secondary schools.
Gavinton is a relatively new settlement, having been established as a planned estate village in 1759 when David Gavin, the local landowner, decided to demolish the village and the church of Langton, which were situated on his estate, and rebuild them outwith the walls on Crimson Hill.
Nearby Duns is the County Town of Berwickshire. The Town provides a good range of local facilities and services including primary and secondary schools, a variety of independent shops, banking services, public houses, restaurant, vets surgery, police station, garages, garden centre, library, council and housing association offices.
The area boasts a range of attractions including Duns Castle, a number of stately homes, the annual Common Riding and the Jim Clark Museum. The surrounding countryside including the Lammermuir Hills provide some spectacular scenery with some excellent terrain for a range of outdoor pursuits. Other recreational facilities in the local area include a swimming pool, gym and children’s play centre, golf driving range, an 18-hole golf course, squash courts, all weather astro-pitches and a range of sports clubs.

Both Edinburgh and Newcastle-Upon-Tyne benefit from an International Airport. Access is readily available to the Main Line East Coast Rail Services with a station at the nearby Towns of Reston and Berwick-Upon-Tweed.
