A substantially improved and enhanced family home in Tweedbank – for sale with valuable extras included
House hunters looking for an upsized family home in a location that offers easy commuting should consider 18 Weavers Linn, a modern detached five bedroomed villa in Tweedbank, where benefits include an extensively upgraded and enhanced home and garden only a few minutes walk from the railway station. What’s more, this immaculately presented home offers outstanding value for money – and comes with most of the furniture, including the garden furniture, included in the price. Current owners Paul and Charlane Burns bought the property six years ago, around a year after it was built. “We were attracted by the layout, garden and location, which is an easy stroll to the railway station and only a five minute drive to Galashiels and Melrose,” he says.

Predominantly white with green accents, the dining kitchen is fitted with modern units, contrasting wooden worktops, integrated appliances and quality stone-effect Camaro flooring to make a fresh-looking contemporary setting.
A carpeted staircase in the hall leads up to the upper landing, off which is the main family bathroom, four sizeable double bedrooms – three fitted with built-in mirror-fronted wardrobes, while two also have en suite shower rooms – and a front-facing study/fifth bedroom (twosided corner desk included). This is an exceptional family home of a size and calibre rarely available. Ready to move into and start living without having to decorate or barely lift a finger. Viewing is a must.
