Yetholmlaw House is a modern architect designed country house set just outside the popular Borders village of Town Yetholm, near Kelso. The house sits in a secluded, private setting and has stunning views overlooking open farmland and the Cheviot hills.  The property is south facing and benefits from all day sunshine.  Building of this remarkable property was completed in 2006 by the current owners and it is an exceptional spacious family home extending to around 5823 Sq ft / 541 Sq m. 

Within a short walk of the village, Yetholmlaw House is accessed up a shared private drive to a large parking area in front of the property. A welcoming double height reception hall area sets the tone at Yetholmlaw House. The polished slate floor tiles, the stunning oak staircase which leads to the gallery landing above and the amount of light this space offers is a rarity in any house. Off the reception hall is a sunken family sitting room / home office and a formal drawing room which features an open sandstone fireplace, a vaulted ceiling and gives access to the two patio terraces either side of this room. There is also a W.C. off the hall area. The large open plan kitchen is the hub of the home. The country style kitchen offers plentiful wall and base units centred around a large granite breakfasting island. The kitchen offers space for all modern day appliances and includes a four door AGA. Within the kitchen area there is plenty of room for a large dining table and an informal TV / seating area.  There are also French doors out to one of the many patio terraces. Beyond the kitchen a set of stairs leads down to the boot room, an ideal space for muddy dogs. This area also offers access to the large utility room and the extensive games room. The games room is a significant space which is currently set up as a snooker / ping pong / gym and kids TV room. Off the TV area is a shower room with WC. This space could easily be sub-divided into a granny annex subject to requirements.

Yetholmlaw House has two staircases which lead to the bedroom accommodation on the first floor - the main oak stair off the reception hallway and a rear stair off the games room. The main staircase leads to a stunning gallery landing which in turn provides access to a south facing roof terrace which overlooks the main formal garden and tennis court. There are two double bedrooms, both with fitted wardrobes and supported by a family bathroom at the front of the house and a further two double bedrooms at the rear of the house. These two bedrooms are supported by a second family bathroom. The principal bedroom sits in the middle. It is a generous room which offers its own en-suite bathroom and fitted wardrobes.
 

The whole house benefits from CAT 5 cabling and an in-house music system with ceiling mounted speakers. There are plenty of storage areas on both the ground and first floor.

Outbuildings and Grounds
Yetholmlaw House is set in beautiful gardens and grounds of about 2.2 acres. The grounds surround the property on all sides and provide an attractive and mature setting for the house. To the south are formal gardens which are mainly laid to lawn, interspersed with mature beds, fruit trees and shrubs. There is a large raised rockery area which provides shelter from the prevailing winds and has a seating area which benefits from the evening sunshine.  On the rear of this rockery area are 16 ground mounted solar panels. The grounds also provide four raised fruit and vegetable beds and an all weather tennis court. There is a double garage attached to the house.  To the rear of Yetholmlaw House is a lawn that runs down to a wildlife pond which is surrounded by a belt of amenity woodland to the west and a managed woodland area to the east of about 1.1 acres.
