Redscaur, Nether Kidston Farm, Peebles, EH45 8PJ

A modern, five bedroom detached house, well set in a highly desirable rural valley location, but close to full town amenities

House - Peebles

Redscaur is a well-proportioned, one and a half storey detached house, constructed in 2001 with rendered external walls under a slate roof and timber frame, double glazed windows throughout. The house is well designed with good sized principal rooms taking advantage of the south facing views and providing accommodation ideally suited for family occupation.

Outside, there is a wrap-around garden of mainly lawns, but with paved and gravel seating areas, all enclosed by mature high hedges and shrubs and providing a high level of seclusion and amenity. the outside space also includes a good-sized parking area to the front. Beyond the garden to the north (rear), east and west are adjoining detached houses, creating a small “hamlet”, but with open fields beyond, maintaining an overall rural feel.

Close by to the east is the new Eddleston Water Multi-Use Path, linking Peebles to the south with Eddleston to the north and providing a safe access route to Peebles for walking or cycling. Additional paths close by allow excellent additional walking or cycling options, directly from the property.

LOCATION

Redscaur is situated approximately two miles north of Peebles within the Eddleston Water valley and is accessed off a private road to Nether Kidston Farm from the A703 Edinburgh Road or directly from the new Eddleston Water Multi-Use path from Peebles to Eddleston. Peebles is a thriving market town set on the River Tweed and surrounded by magnificent countryside. It lies approximately 25 miles south of Edinburgh which makes it popular with commuters and families. Local buses travel on a regular basis into Edinburgh city centre, in addition to Galashiels to the east. It retains a full range of shops and services as well as primary and secondary schooling. The wider area retains an abundance of outdoor pursuit opportunities, including fishing, hillwalking, trail running and mountain biking, with the famous mountain biking location of Glentress Forest situated 2 miles to the east of the town.

DIRECTIONS

From Edinburgh, take the A703 south from the Hillend junction, through Penicuik and continue straight on at the Leadburn junction (signposted “Peebles A703”). Continue through the village of Eddleston and beyond the “30” limit for approximately two miles. Pass the entrance to Cringletie House Hotel and continue for another quarter of a mile.  Turn right onto the tarmac farm road just after the house known as “Moy Hall” (Nether Kidston Farm), and Redscaur is the second house on the right.
