SITUATIONLocated south of the historic Borders town of Hawick, Orchard House is set in peaceful rolling countryside in an elevated position providing views across open fields.

Hawick is centrally located for all the Scottish Borders market towns, as well as being only 45 miles from Edinburgh. The town is well situated with good transport links: the terminus of the Scottish Borders Railway is 20 miles north, while both mainline train services and Newcastle Airport are 52 miles to the southeast.

The town, famous for its textile industry which dates back centuries, with its connection to cashmere production still very much alive today, offers a wide range of services including supermarkets, hotels, restaurants, professional services and a primary and secondary school. The town is an integral part of the Cashmere Trail and is the major remaining centre for that industry in the Borders. In addition the town hosts a number of spectacular events throughout the year, including the world famous Common Riding.

The Borders area is well known for its high quality field sports, including first class grouse shooting in the Lammermuir Hills and a number of extremely well run pheasant shoots. The River Tweed and its tributaries are internationally known for the quality of their salmon and sea trout fishing. Numerous local golf courses, including the recently renovated Roxburghe Championship Course near Kelso, cater for golf enthusiasts.

DESCRIPTION A fine example of a traditional Georgian country house, with Victorian additions such as bay windows, B Listed Orchard House has retained its period character and many original features.

Spacious accommodation is split over four floors, with the main entrance leading up stone stairs to the ground floor. The entrance hall frames the spectacular curved staircase through a pillared arch, and provides access to the formal dining room and kitchen to the left, and drawing room and study on the right. The dual aspect dining room with open fireplace can be opened up to the country style kitchen, or can be partitioned off by a pair of large doors. The kitchen features base and wall units with a cream electric AGA and LPG range cooker, and there is also space for a breakfast table. The light drawing room features one of the Victorian bay windows as well as an open fireplace and press cupboard. To the rear of the hall is a flexible room currently used as a snug but which would also make a useful study or family room.

Stairs lead down to the lower ground floor, where a utility room, cloakroom, larder, wine cellar and stores can be accessed. The main accommodation on the lower ground floor comprises of a spacious playroom/family room, office and boiler room which provides further storage space. A rear door provides access outside to the outbuildings.

From the main hall, the curved stone staircase leads up to the first floor where the master suite is located; this includes a generously sized double bedroom and en suite bathroom. There are three further bedrooms and a large family bathroom on this level. One of the guest bedrooms also features an en suite bathroom.

A further staircase, concealed by a door, leads up to the attic floor where an additional two spacious bedrooms are located, along with a shower room and play area on the landing. Skylights provide plenty of natural light, and one of the bedrooms, facing east, features a dormer window with fantastic views over the walled garden and paddock.

OUTSIDEThe property is approached by a long driveway, with lawn and mature trees and hedges providing a boundary wall. A flat lawn lies directly in front of the house, while the driveway wraps around the property leading to the multiple outbuildings to the rear. These properties include a stable block with three loose boxes, a garage with adjacent store/ games room and bin store, as well as a large shed with space for multiple parked cars and garden equipment.

On the east side of the property there is a stunning formal garden; this offers a peaceful sanctuary in its symmetrical design and pond with fountain. A number of fruit trees can be found within this garden including apple and plum. A paddock of around 3 acres extends around the formal garden.

DIRECTIONSFrom Edinburgh, take the A7 headed south to Hawick. Upon entering the town, head straight over the first roundabout, then taking the second exit on the second roundabout, head out of the town on the A698. Turn right off this road for the A6088, signposted for Bonchester Bridge. Take the fourth right turn, opposite a war memorial. Take the next right hand turn, headed up the hill. Once round a tight left bend, opposite the farmhouse on the right hand side is the entrance to the driveway leading to Orchard House.
