Summary
Catch-a-Penny Cottage is a beautifully preserved example of 19th-century rural Scottish architecture, reflecting the historical character of the Yetholm area and its development over time. This charming Category C Listed building is believed to have once served as a toll house, hence the name and later as a blacksmith’s residence. Lovingly maintained and sensitively enhanced by its current owners using traditional methods, the cottage has been carefully preserved for future generations to enjoy. The ground floor comprises a spacious living room with a wood-burning stove, a shower room, a laundry cupboard, a dining kitchen, and a workshop/utility room. Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The property benefits from oil-fired central heating and is presented in good decorative order throughout.
