Langrig, Kirkton

A country classic with exceptional lifestyle appeal, Langrig enjoys a beautiful setting in the picturesque hamlet of Kirkton, surrounded by the rolling Borders countryside.

Originally a smallholding, this distinctive property now offers a stylish and generously proportioned home, complemented by outstanding gardens and grounds and potential filled outbuildings. Peaceful, private and wonderfully restorative, it is a place where country living comes naturally — yet with excellent access to nearby towns and everyday amenities.

Kirkton is an idyllic choice for those looking to embrace a quieter pace of life. Surrounded by open fields, mature greenery and beautiful Border scenery, the setting is particularly appealing to garden lovers. The grounds at Langrig include a productive vegetable garden and orchard, offering the opportunity to enjoy a little of the ‘good life’ at home, while the nearby village of Denholm and larger towns are just a short drive away.

Inside, the property combines traditional character with thoughtful modern design. Generous glazing and carefully considered positioning make the most of the beautiful outlooks, while the recent extension has transformed the home into a bright, welcoming and highly sociable space.

The kitchen and garden room is undoubtedly the heart of the home. Beautifully designed as a natural hub for everyday life and entertaining, the open flow between kitchen, dining and living areas creates an inviting sense of space. Glazing on all sides frames panoramic views across the colourful garden, bringing the outdoors firmly into the heart of the property.
A further cosy lounge retains a wonderful sense of history, featuring a nostalgic 1930s fireplace that provides a charming connection to the original house. The ground floor also offers a useful home study, double bedroom and shower room, providing excellent flexibility for family life, guests or those seeking single-level accommodation.

Upstairs, two further well-proportioned double bedrooms are complemented by a second shower room, providing comfortable and versatile accommodation for family and visitors alike.

Outside, the gardens are truly the jewel in the crown. Beautifully landscaped and expertly cultivated, they combine generous areas of lawn with colourful borders, established planting and mature trees, creating a wonderfully private and secluded environment. The garden is both attractive and productive, with an orchard and vegetable garden adding to its appeal.

A charming courtyard, accessed directly from the open plan kitchen, provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and relaxed summer evenings. A tranquil water feature and patio create an appealing space for entertaining or simply enjoying the peace and quiet.

The extensive grounds also include a workshop, garage and additional stores, providing practical space alongside the lifestyle opportunities offered by this exceptional country home. With the relevant permissions, this would make an excellent annexe accommodation or studio space and is highly desirable for those requiring work from home space.

Langrig is an opportunity to embrace a different way of living — surrounded by nature, space and privacy, while remaining conveniently connected to the wider Borders
