1 bed bungalow for sale

Bennecourt Drive, Coldstream TD12

An immaculately presented detached bungalow forming part of the popular Stephen Homes development, this impressive property has been exceptionally well maintained and lovingly cared for by its owners for over 20 years. Originally designed as a three-bedroom home, the property was thoughtfully reconfigured by its previous owner, who purchased it off-plan, to create a luxurious principal bedroom suite. This impressive room features two windows, a fitted wardrobe and a stylish en-suite shower room. The property could readily be converted back to its original three-bedroom layout, subject to any necessary consents. The spacious living/dining room benefits from a large front-facing window, while patio doors provide direct access to the private rear garden. A well-appointed kitchen is complemented by a useful utility room with boiler cupboard. There is a further generous double bedroom and a family bathroom, while excellent storage is provided throughout. The property also benefits from double glazing and gas central heating, making it a comfortable and highly appealing home set within a desirable residential development.
Location

The property is ideally situated in the heart of a popular residential area, bordered by attractive woodland belonging to the Hirsel Estate in Coldstream. Coldstream, known as the first Border town in Scotland, is steeped in history as the original home of the Earl of Home. The Hirsel Estate provides beautiful countryside walks, abundant wildlife, as well as a charming cafe and craft shops. Positioned just north of the Cheviot Hills and set along the banks of the River Tweed, renowned for its excellent salmon fishing, Coldstream offers a peaceful yet well-connected lifestyle. The town itself benefits from a wide range of local amenities, including pubs, shops, cafes, a community centre, as well as medical and dental services. With a strong sense of community, Coldstream is twinned with Bennecourt in France, adding to its unique character. The town is conveniently located approximately 15 miles from the East Coast mainline railway station at Berwick-upon-Tweed, and around 9 miles from Kelso, both of which provide a broader selection of amenities and services.
