2 Pier Maltings is an impressive and contemporary 3/4 bedroom townhouse within a Grade 2 listed building, occupying a prime waterfront position, with superb, southerly, dual-aspect views over the River Tweed estuary and Northumbrian coastline.

The beautifully presented accommodation is accessed via a private front door positioned off Pier Road. The ground floor comprises a comfortably sized ensuite double bedroom, a smaller room (bedroom/study/store) and a utility room. Stairs or a private lift give access to the first and second floors. On the first floor is the second of the ensuite double bedrooms, a third bedroom/study and a family bathroom. The second floor offers a wonderful open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room with a stunning vaulted ceiling.

Although much of your time will be given up to admiring the coastal views from the windows, there is also a glorious residents’ garden accessed directly via a communal staircase. Completing this generous property is a designated off-street parking space adjacent to the front door.

Area Insights

2 Pier Maltings lies beside the famous Elizabethan walls in Berwick-Upon-Tweed, within easy and direct access to the town centre. There is a short walk to the picturesque pier and beautiful beaches that surround the town. Pier Maltings gives you the feeling of openness but still has the benefit of being close to a wide range of amenities.

The historic market town of Berwick-upon-Tweed is famous for its stunning architecture and is well serviced with local and national shops, five national supermarkets and schooling for all ages including a private school at Longridge Towers. Berwick also has a selection of leisure and sports clubs, banks, public houses, cafes, restaurants and The Maltings theatre and cinema which offers daily shows and movies. There is a main line railway station which has regular trains to both Edinburgh, Newcastle and London, both Edinburgh and Newcastle are sub one hour travel time and London in circa 3 hours 45 minutes. There is also the A1 trunk road which bypasses the town and provides easy access both north and south respectively.

The local area has a wide range of popular attractions and activities including Northumberland and Berwickshire’s rugged coastline of unspoilt beaches and beautiful landscapes; Berwick walls and pier are only minutes away while Lindisfarne National Nature Reserve, Bamburgh Castle and the ancient Border towns of Coldstream, Kelso and Melrose are within easy reach. Country and sporting pursuits are also readily available, including hill walking, salmon and trout fishing, riding, hunting and shooting. Golf is available locally; within five minutes’ walk lies Berwick Golf Course and other courses can be found at Goswick, Eyemouth and the Hirsel. Swimming, gym, squash and indoor bowling facilities exist at the Swan Centre in Berwick-upon-Tweed.

Despite Berwick’s proximity to both Edinburgh and Newcastle, the area has a low population and can therefore offer a quality of life that is becoming increasingly rare.
