Rare chance to buy a perfect pair of cottages

Lilliestead Cottages offer the opportunity of purchasing a successful holiday let business close to the historic walled town of Berwick-upon-Tweed.

The properties comprise two well-presented cottages, recently refurbished, which could also be let on Assured Shorthold tenancies or, alternatively, subject to the necessary consents, be converted into a substantial single storey home.

For the leisure enthusiast, the beautiful coastline of north Northumberland and Berwickshire with sandy beaches and the hills and scenery of the Northumberland National Park, or the challenging Goswick Links and Hirsel Golf courses are all close by as is world class fishing on the Rivers Tweed, Whitadder and Till and National Hunt racing in Kelso.

The picturesque border market town of Berwick-upon-Tweed provides a wide range of shopping, banking and educational services, as well as the East Coast main line railway station with regular services to the cities of Edinburgh, Newcastle (circa 45 minutes) and London Kings Cross (circa 4 hours), whilst the A1(T) Berwick bypass allows easy access by car to the cities of Edinburgh (55 miles) and Newcastle upon Tyne (60 miles).

Barbara Pentecost, selling agent at Smiths Gore’s Berwick Office says:

“This is a fabulous opportunity to buy a pair of ready-made holiday cottages, taking advantage of one of the UK’s fastest growing tourism sectors, the self-catering holiday.”

“The cottages are in a lovely location yet easy to access from the station at Berwick or from the A1.”

Lilliestead Cottages are marketed with a Guide Price of £190,000 for the whole.
