Situated in the picturesque village of Roxburgh, this former church presents an exceptional opportunity for renovation enthusiasts and investors alike. With full planning approval secured for its transformation into a modern family home, Roxburgh Church is a rare find in the scenic Scottish Borders. The historic structure, dating back to 1752, has been meticulously prepared for redevelopment, ensuring both the preservation of original features such as stained glass windows and timber paneling, and incorporation of modern energy-efficient technologies like air source heating and secondary glazing.
The proposed layout optimally utilizes the space: the ground floor will feature a spacious reception area within the main body of the kirk, complemented by an open-plan kitchen and living room. Additional spaces include a cozy TV room and a snug sitting area, as well as accessible bedroom accommodation with en-suite facilities on this level. The upper floor will host a generously sized master suite with a mezzanine balcony and two further en-suite bedrooms.
Roxburgh benefits from tranquil country living while being only four miles from Kelso, providing easy access to various amenities including shops, educational institutions, and leisure facilities. The area is also rich in recreational opportunities like walking in the Cheviot Hills and enjoying local fishing or racing events.
This project is ideal for those looking to dive into a renovation journey that not only revitalizes a historical landmark but also creates a unique family residence tailored to contemporary lifestyles.
