"This beautifully presented eight-bedroomed property is in many ways a house of two sides: Currently utilised to provide both a spacious home with three private double bedrooms, including a master bedroom with large en-suite bathroom, Hermiston also comprises separate guest house accommodation offering five en-suite double/twin guest rooms served by a separate staircase.

"Finally entering a lobby area at the rear of the building with its own external access there is another ground floor double/twin bedroom with a large walk in ensuite, and the staircase up to the three further guest bedrooms - each immaculate and beautifully appointed featuring their own ensuite rainfall showers, usb charge points and mountain or garden views.

"Accessed from the first floor hallway is a large private terrace that overlooks the delightful garden, perfect for watching the birds, the occasional red squirrel and for alfresco dining."

"This fine property will therefore appeal to a wide range of potential purchasers, from those wishing to pursue the hospitality bed and breakfast trade or self catering rooms to those seeking a large family home, or needing accommodation for dependent relatives, or other business interests. The accommodation is superbly presented throughout, and benefits from oil-fired central heating, and UPVC double glazing."
