THE SCOTT APARTMENT - stylishly restored Grade II listed townhouse apartment | Apartment in Kelso

Experience the best of Kelso’s vibrant market town life and tranquil Tweed fishing beats from this slick bolthole.
Set on a deep meander of the river Tweed, where it collides with the river Teviot, the bustling market town of Kelso is as rich in history and architectural merit as it is in contemporary urban appeal. Home to the remains of what was once the mightiest monastery in the Scottish Borders, visitors to Kelso will also discover two stately homes, a graceful five-arched bridge that served as the model for London's Waterloo Bridge and Scotland’s largest market square.
The cobbled Kelso Square has a distinctly continental feel to it: thriving market stalls, with their brightly striped awnings, fill the square, which is overseen by the 19th-century ornamental town hall, topped by a striking octagonal clock tower, and flanked by grand, Italianate-style buildings. Amongst these is the Grade II listed former British Linen Bank building. Dating to the mid 19th-century, the impressive townhouse has been sensitively restored and redeveloped to create a pair of sought-after holiday homes, including the sumptuous one-bedroom Scott Apartment.
Stepping into the two-storey apartment, you’ll be instantly struck by the bold contemporary painting in the open-plan living space, which bathes the room in light and coordinates with the vivid Bumble Bee yellow of the sleek, newly fitted designer kitchen. The property’s thoroughly modern design is complemented by equally current technology with superfast fibre broadband and a Smart TV.
Set on the second floor, the spacious bedroom features a super king bed (which can be configured as a twin upon request) with a hotel-quality Sealy Posturepedic mattress and a palatial en suite bathroom with a slipper bathtub and walk-in shower with a rainfall showerhead.
Should you wish to share your stylish bolthole for two, one of the sofas in the sitting room converts to a double 5' pocket-sprung sofa bed. Furthermore, there’s the option of linking the Scott Apartment with the four-bedroom Linen House, by way of a connecting door through the sitting room.
