Curror Street, Selkirk, TD7

Description
This maisonette at 6 Curror Street represents a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious three-bedroom home set across two upper floors of a traditional stone-built block. With a gross internal area of approximately 84m², the layout is generous and practical for a variety of potential buyers, particularly first-time buyers, couples, or small families. The configuration allows for separation between living and sleeping quarters, with the top floor hosting two bedrooms and a shower room, while the main living space and a further bedroom and bathroom are located on the lower level.

The property’s original construction from circa 1890 is evident in its solid stone walls, pitched slate roof, and dormer windows, which combine to provide a classic façade with enduring architectural appeal. Internally, it benefits from more modern touches such as UPVC double glazing, a fitted kitchen with base and wall-mounted units, and gas central heating provided by a boiler located within the cupboard upstairs. The addition of two bathrooms – one on each level – offers flexibility and convenience, particularly for families or guests.

While there is no private garden or external outbuilding, this low-maintenance aspect could appeal to busy professionals or those who prefer less upkeep. The absence of communal areas enhances privacy, while on-street parking is readily available nearby. The open fireplaces in the living room and top floor bedrooms add further charm and could potentially be restored or enhanced to provide secondary heating or a focal feature.

The property is also in generally sound external condition, with recent visual inspections indicating the slate roofing, chimney stacks, and cast iron rainwater goods to be well-maintained. Internally, while some cosmetic upgrading might suit buyer preferences, the structure and layout offer an excellent canvas to modernise further or personalise. The secure access door, good storage, and spacious landings add further appeal to the home’s practicality and liveability.

Location
Curror Street lies in a quiet and established residential area within central Selkirk, a historic town nestled in the heart of the Scottish Borders. The street itself comprises a mix of traditional stone-built properties of varying ages and styles, contributing to the character of the neighbourhood. 6 Curror Street enjoys a slightly elevated position, offering open views across parts of the town while still being within walking distance to Selkirk’s High Street and essential services.

Regular bus services run between Selkirk and nearby towns, while the A7 provides a direct road route north towards Edinburgh and south into Carlisle.
