Description

Victoria Lodge is an impressive and distinguished period property occupying a prominent position in the heart of the historic Borders town of Coldstream. Formerly operating as a sixteen bedroom residential care home, the property is now offered with vacant possession, presenting a rare opportunity to transform a substantial character building into an exceptional residential development.
Rich in architectural heritage, Victoria Lodge retains an array of original period features, including ornate cornicing, an elegant original staircase, generous ceiling heights and beautifully proportioned accommodation. These features provide the perfect canvas for a sympathetic restoration, creating homes that successfully blend historic character with contemporary living.
The scale and configuration of the building offer considerable flexibility for redevelopment. Subject to the necessary planning permissions and statutory consents, the property is considered ideally suited to conversion into a collection of high quality apartments, elegant townhouse style residences, or a carefully designed mixed residential scheme.
At the rear, the property enjoys a generous enclosed garden which offers valuable outdoor amenity space, with potential for private gardens, communal landscaped areas or resident parking, subject to the appropriate consents.
Victoria Lodge benefits from immediate access to a wide range of local amenities including independent shops, cafés, restaurants, healthcare facilities and recreational amenities. The town enjoys excellent road connections to Kelso, Berwick-upon-Tweed, Edinburgh and Newcastle, making it an increasingly attractive location for commuters, retirees and those seeking a high quality of life within the Borders. With growing demand for distinctive residential properties throughout the region, Victoria Lodge offers developers and investors an outstanding opportunity.
