Description

The Paddock is a stunning detached family home built in 2012, set on an elevated position along the beautiful Berwickshire coastline. With sweeping views of the sea and the rugged landscape, this modern property near the village of Cockburnspath combines comfort with functionality, designed to meet a wide range of family needs.

Upon entering through the front door, you are welcomed into a bright and spacious hallway that sets the tone for the light-filled interior. Expansive windows throughout the property allow natural light to flood every corner, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere and framing the breathtaking coastal and countryside views.

To the left, the heart of the home awaits in the open-plan sitting and dining area, which leads to a generous kitchen featuring a stylish island—perfect for cooking, dining, and gathering with family and friends. The kitchen opens to a convenient utility room, which in turn leads to a WC.

To the right of the entrance hallway, you’ll find a cosy family sitting room, complete with a wood burner, ideal for relaxing on colder days. A versatile additional reception room, currently used as a gym and office, completes the ground floor, offering flexibility to suit your lifestyle.

A staircase leads to the first floor, where the accommodation continues to impress. The master bedroom provides a restful retreat with built-in wardrobes and an en suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms are ideal for family members or guests, served by a spacious family bathroom. A fourth double bedroom, also with an en suite shower room, completes the upstairs layout.

Externally, The Paddock is further enhanced by its private front and rear gardens. The rear garden offers a peaceful retreat with ample room for outdoor dining, play, or relaxation, while the front garden provides an inviting and sheltered setting. A private driveway provides convenient access and parking for numerous cars, leading to a double garage.

Adjacent to the home, a separate paddock of approximately 1.5 acres presents an exciting additional feature. This enclosed grassy area, surrounded by secure fencing, offers potential as additional garden space, ideal for those seeking extra land for recreational use, gardening, or small livestock. Alternatively, this land could present opportunities for development, subject to relevant permissions, making it a valuable asset with versatile potential.
