PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

A rare opportunity to purchase a stone lodge within the former Stobs Castle Estate, Black Lodge is a uniquely charming property located at Stobs, just outside Hawick in the Scottish Borders. The property enjoys all the beauty and tranquillity of the Borders countryside while being just a short drive from extensive amenities, shops, cafes and restaurants of the largest town in the Borders.
Originally a castle gate lodge, the property has been lovingly extended and refurbished into a family home and offers a wonderful glimpse into late 1800's architecture with exposed stonework and deep bracketed eaves sitting in private and secluded gardens.

Downstairs there is an immaculate kitchen dining extension with sliding glass patio doors overlooking magnificent gardens, a sitting room with inglenook fireplace and multifuel stove for cosy evenings, lounge/study, front vestibule, wood panelled rear hall and a downstairs WC. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, plus a third bedroom/nursery or study room, and a recently renovated family bathroom.

The grounds of Black Lodge are unique in both the location, sitting near the banks of Cogsmill Burn feeding into the Slitrig Water, and the array of historical landscaping and modern but tired out-buildings.

Planning permission was recently granted to replace both out-buildings with similar, more up to date structures (details available upon request).
