LOCATION Bowden is one of the prettiest villages in the Scottish Borders, a delightful conservation village nestling on the southern slopes of the Hills. The village has a central location within the Borders and is within easy reach of Melrose, the Borders General Hospital, Galashiels, and Scottish Borders Council’s headquarters. The Waverley rail link between Galashiels and Edinburgh is due to be re-opened in 2015.

Bowden has a village hall and a delightful church. There are shops in Newtown St Boswells and Melrose and secondary schooling is at the well regarded High School. Viewfield lies within Bowden’s conservation area and is the fourth house on the left on entering Bowden from the east/Newtown St Boswells.

DESCRIPTION Viewfield is a superb modern detached family home which enjoys magnificent southerly outlooks towards Peniel Heugh and the Cheviots.

The house has been finished to a particularly high standard and benefits from propane gas fired central heating, a propane gas fired Aga cooker, double glazing, high quality fittings, an attractive fireplace in the drawing room, imaginatively curved walls and a good deal of mahogany. The staircase is a particularly pleasing feature. Each of the five main bedrooms has an en suite shower room.

There is a part floored attic with loft ladder access, light and shelved storage.

Viewfield sits within attractive and imaginatively landscaped garden grounds which include ample off road car parking, a large patio with lighting, lawn, borders, fruit garden and a small artificial stream with running water. The garden enjoys a good degree of privacy and also benefits from fine outlooks.

Outbuiildings include a large double garage, workshop, sub-divided timber garden shed and greenhouse.

COUNCIL TAX Viewfield falls into Band E for Council Tax purposes. However, this dates from April 1993 and as the house has been significantly extended and improved since then it should be anticipated that the Council Tax Band will change.

VIEWING Strictly by appointment with the selling agents.
