56 Springfield Terrace is well positioned in an established residential area close to all village amenities including St Boswells primary school.

St Boswells is located on the A68 between giving easy access north to Edinburgh and south to Newcastle, and is a delightful traditional Scottish Borders village with a traditional village green, set at the foot of the Eildon Hills. Day-to-day amenities include local shops, small supermarket, restaurants, hotel, post office, and Primary School within walking distance, and is set within the Earlston High School catchment area. More extensive amenities are to be found in nearby Melrose and Galashiels, and the Borders Railway terminus at Tweedbank is approximately 6 miles away, making commuting to Edinburgh within an hour a viable option, and also has good public transport links locally. Surrounded by beautiful Borders countryside the area has much to offer for a quality lifestyle, and there is a vibrant community locally with lots of local clubs and societies and a good range of outdoor activities such as golf, fishing, cycling, tennis, walking (St Cuthbert?s Way), and horse riding, to name a few.

On a broader note, the Scottish Borders offers a quality of life that is second to none and in an area of 1800 square miles there is certainly plenty of space to enjoy our beautiful unspoilt countryside and individual towns. Leave the congestion and overpricing behind and discover for yourself what a fantastic place the Borders is to live, work and play. Home to world class activities and attractions, it?s no wonder that the area is so popular with visitors who come here to enjoy mountain biking at Glentress, salmon fishing on the Tweed, walking in our hills and forests or diving off the Berwickshire coast. The area is also known for its? spectacular Common Ridings, when whole communities come together to celebrate each town?s individual heritage and to cheer on hundreds of horses and riders every summer. The Borders is also a heartland of rugby in Scotland, with the names of our local towns being synonymous with the game and of course Melrose being the original home of rugby sevens. From our historic towns to rural villages, wherever you go you will be struck by the warmth of the welcome in our communities and the real pride people have in living in this wonderful part of the world. With good transport links, an excellent education system and stunning countryside, a move to the Scottish Borders really could be the best move of your life.
