Description
The subjects are located on Richmond Row, Jedburgh, adjacent to the Jed Water and in close proximity to Canongate Bridge.
We understand the property was originally constructed as purpose-built flats circa 1977 and was subsequently redeveloped by Scottish Borders Council around 1998 to provide sheltered housing before transferring to Scottish Borders Housing Association in 2003 and more recently used as amenity housing. The accommodation comprises a two-bedroom caretaker’s flat with its own dedicated entrance, together with a further ten units arranged within the main building.
Access to the principal accommodation is via a communal entrance, with both stair and lift access (eight-person capacity) serving the upper floors. The building benefits from a number of shared facilities, including a residents’ seating/lounge area with ancillary kitchen provision, as well as a large cleaning and laundry room.
The remaining residential units comprise a mix of studio apartments and one-bedroom flats, providing a flexible layout suited to a range of occupier requirements. The design and configuration of the building, together with the communal amenities, reflect its former use as sheltered accommodation; however, the subjects may offer potential for alternative residential or redevelopment opportunities, subject to the necessary planning consents.
Overall, the property represents a substantial residential block in a prominent riverside setting, with scope to enhance or reconfigure the existing accommodation depending on a purchaser’s requirements.
