LOCAL INFORMATION
EXTERNALLY
Newhouse Cottage is located a short distance from the small hamlet of Camptown,
which lies on the course of the Jed Water, and a short drive from the popular market
town of Jedburgh where there is a good range of amenities including a wide range
of shops including an award-winning butcher, professional services, good primary
and secondary schools, a health centre, supermarket, a number of restaurants and
cafés, and a wide range of leisure amenities. Jedburgh is home to one of the most
famous and oldest Rugby Clubs in Scotland, Jed-Forest; other sports activities
include football, swimming, badminton, tennis, athletics and skiing on the only dry
ski slope in the Borders. Jedburgh is one of the most historic towns in the Scottish
Borders, with many fine buildings including the beautiful 12th century Augustinian
Abbey, Mary Queen of Scots fortified house, and the Victorian County Jail.
The property is accessed through double timber gates to a spacious gravelled parking area. To the rear
of the cottage there is a private sun terrace and lawned garden with a range of fruit trees, including apple
and pear, and several blackberry bushes. To the front there is further garden area with lawn and large
pond/lake with a natural water source. A detached single garage is located to the side of the cottage.
A double timber gate leads from the parking area into the field and an access track leads to the American
Barn style equestrian unit, which benefits from water and electric supply. There are eight 12’ x 12’ stables,
together with a feed room and tack room arranged on either side of a central passage with sliding doors
at either end.
The land, which surrounds the property, amounts to a total of 6.3 acres.
The main A68 runs through Camptown which makes many of the surrounding
Borders towns and villages within easy commuting distance. Good communication
links to the north and south via the A68, A7 and A696 trunk roads provide access to
Edinburgh, Carlisle and Newcastle. The nearest mainline railway station is at Berwickupon-Tweed which provides mainline services north and south to major UK cities.
Both Edinburgh and Newcastle have international airports and are easily accessible.
THE PROPERTY
Newhouse Cottage is an excellent equestrian property in the heart of the Borders
hunting country. The detached two bedroom property which is in need of renovation
and modernisation, offers tremendous potential with the benefit of a modern
stable block and land amounting to approximately 6.3 acres. The property enjoys a
stunning, rural yet very accessible location, situated near the A68 trunk road through
the Scottish Borders. The surrounding area provides beautiful countryside walks and
rides. Kelso has a first class race course and there are numerous golf courses in the
Borders.
This is an increasingly rare opportunity to purchase a small equestrian property
with development potential. The cottage currently provides an entrance porch, hall,
large sitting room with multi-fuel stove which provides central heating, kitchen and
conservatory off the sitting room, together with two bedrooms and bathroom. The
cottage has exposed beams and offers enormous potential to create a fabulous
country cottage with vaulted ceilings, occupying a delightful location with stunning
rural views, all set within 6.3 acres of land.
SERVICES
Mains electricity, private water and drainage.

From the A68 going north take the right turn
