The property is a unique mews style townhouse on four levels and was originally being part of the famous (and now former) Pettigrews Pickle factory. Conveniently located in Oven Wynd right in the centre of Kelso - just a few steps away from all the amenities offered by this picturesque market town and casting distance from the Tweed.A gated entrance off Oven Wynd opens to the entrance hall which includes hanging space and rod racks which cater for rods up to 15’ in length. Off the entrance hall is a spacious storage cupboard, a utility room with a washer/dryer and a separate bathroom with shower. Stairs lead up to the first floor hallway, off which is the spacious dining/living room , and leads to the fully equipped modern kitchen. A second staircase off the first floor hallway leads to the second floor hallway, off which are the three bedrooms; two can be made up with either twin or double beds and the third has a full size bunk bed . All bedrooms are fitted with vanity units and the house bathroom includes a bath, separate shower and feature stone walls. The decked roof terrace is accessed by a pull down ladder and is fully secure. The terrace is a wonderful place to relax
Kelso, with its cobbled streets, is arguably the most attractive Border town. Situated next to the Tweed the town is a Mecca for fishermen. Relax in the town and browse around the traditional and boutique shops. There are plenty of pubs, cafes and restaurants to enjoy. Attractions include the majestic Floors Castle and Kelso Racecourse. Springwood Park is the home of the Border Union Show and hosts many other events including dog shows, ram sales and fishing fair. All are within walking distance of our property.
