33 Kirklands, Innerleithen, EH44 6NA

Occupying a significant corner plot, this exclusive five-bedroom detached house is an executive residence that is beautifully presented throughout, boasting three reception rooms, a large dining kitchen, and two washrooms. It comes with extensive private parking and a family-friendly garden as well. The south-facing home also offers a picturesque semi-rural lifestyle on the idyllic rural fringes of Innerleithen, complete with inspiring views.

 

Inside, a vestibule and a reception hall (with storage and a WC) provide an impeccable introduction, hinting at the exceptional quality of the home. In the living room, generous dimensions are bathed in south-facing light from a trio of windows. The airy ambience is further enhanced by a neutral palette and the warm glow of the hardwood floor (found throughout most of the home). A modern fireplace, highlighted by a tasteful accent wall, adds the finishing touch. A formal dining room for lively dinner parties echoes the aesthetic of the living area, flowing through to a conservatory well-suited to unwinding and socialising. In the dining kitchen, a large footprint (laid with Amtico flooring) accommodates another table and chairs, alongside a generous selection of cabinets and sweeping worktop space. Undercabinet lighting and integrated appliances complete the look (five-burner gas hob, double oven, fridge/freezer, and dishwasher). A separate utility room supplements the kitchen. Two double bedrooms, a single bedroom, and a study also occupy the ground floor, all of which are usefully fitted with built-in storage. Conveniently nearby, a four-piece family bathroom includes a shower cubicle and a bath with a handheld shower. The two remaining double bedrooms are on the first floor off a naturally-lit landing with a cosy snug. Both rooms feature two built-in wardrobes, with the principal bedroom also enjoying the luxury of a quality en-suite shower room laid with LVT flooring. For year-round comfort, the property has double glazing and gas central heating, with wet underfloor heating in the living room.

 

Externally, there are easy-to-maintain gardens to the front and fully-enclosed rear. The rear garden is perfect for summer dining, with charming patio areas that capture lots of sun and a wonderful outlook over rolling hills and a mature forest. A large monoblock driveway and a detached double garage offer private parking for multiple vehicles.

 

Extras: all fitted floor and window coverings, light fittings, integrated kitchen appliances, a freestanding fridge, and a washing machine to be included in the sale.
