Location
The property is situated just off the town centre. Although the building is situated in a built up residential area the property has a secluded feel due to its rear access not often used which is not regularly used other than for neighbouring residents. St John Street and the surrounding streets are popular for house hunters and specifically investors looking for buy-to-lets and or adding value to a property, families will also be drawn to a property of this size with the potential to turn the upstairs toilet to a 3rd single bedroom.

Galashiels is easily commutable to Edinburgh via the A7 or A68 trunk roads, and airports are located at Edinburgh and Newcastle.
