WITH a picturesque rural setting in the heart of the Borders, a farmhouse called Jeaniefield, near Lauder, feels as though it is far from anywhere. Yet Edinburgh is only 30 miles away.

On the books of agents Knight Frank at offers over £445,000 – around the same price as a conventional home within the Capital – as well as its setting, there are many other features which make this a haven.

The house sits in 4.5 acres with an enclosed garden and a paddock.

Another plus is the fact the attractive farmhouse has recently undergone refurbishment work that included the installation of a new kitchen and bathroom.

A great family home, accommodation takes in two reception rooms, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, kitchen, utility and a boot room.
