A home to fall in love with – tucked to the edge of town with open countryside views and a secluded location, this stunning country mansion is divided into three private homes, with Upper Manorhill occupying ground and first floor. Benefitting a private original main door entrance, a wonderful blend of traditional features with modernist styling inside a large private garden and even a section of woodland.
A truly unique country home, embracing a maximalist interior which perfectly complements the grand proportions of this period apartment, Upper Manorhill offers a wonderful home for those in search of a balance between rural life and modern amenities. Surrounded by rolling countryside, this charming pocket of the Scottish Borders is still within easy reach of nearby facilities, transport links and even the Border Railway.
The main door apartment offers flexible accommodation with a choice of three entertaining public rooms, two luxuriously appointed bedrooms and the scope to utilise and further develop the hobby room on the second floor. With well-considered upgrades throughout, including sash and case double glazing and gas central heating, the property is immaculate in presentation and condition.
In addition, the property benefits plenty of parking by way of a gravelled drive, with a garage and a wonderful extensive private garden, largely laid to lawn, with a section of sheltering woodland to the far end.
This has proven an exceptionally desirable location in recent years with Upper Manorhill making an enviable home for any couple or indeed family - with plenty of socialising and entertaining space, the accommodation would easily adapt to host three bedrooms, with obvious enhancement value in the attic conversion.
Location
The property is ideally placed to the edge of Selkirk for all town amenities and with a good selection of small local shops providing for everyday requirements, as well as schools from nursery to secondary level all easily accessible. The property also benefits from easy access to Edinburgh via the A7 and A68 and is within easy reach of the new Borders rail connections with the opening of the Waverley Line and nearby stations at Galashiels and Tweedbank. The area also has good road and bus connections to all central Borders towns and is surrounded by beautiful countryside with rolling hills, scenic valleys and two golf courses all close to hand.
