  • Converted station house cottage with its own train put up for sale | ITV NewsWouldn't it be great if you could buy a house complete with its very own train and track? Well, that's exactly what is on offer in the property sale of a former station house in the Scottish borders. This unique six-bedroom home is perfect for railway enthusiasts and their families. Our Scotland correspondent, Peter Smith, has the story.Located in Newcastleton, just a few miles from Scotland's border with England, this spacious property has something special to offer. As you explore the garden, you come across a train station. And yes, that train actually belongs to the house. The good news for potential buyers is that it is not just a model display, it actually works.The current owner, Geoff, explains how he found himself the owner of a train. He initially purchased the abandoned station in 1990, but then realized that it wouldn't be complete without a railway track. So, he added a train and built his own tracks. The train doesn't run very far, just a few hundred yards to the end of the garden and back, but it is a functioning train nonetheless.Maintaining the track is part of the responsibility that comes with owning this unique property. However, Geoff reassures potential buyers that it's not as burdensome as it may seem. He confesses that he hasn't touched the track for 20 years, apart from occasionally tightening a few nuts. So, if you decide to purchase this house, you won't have to worry too much about track maintenance.Geoff's reasons for selling the property are personal. Unfortunately, his wife is no longer with him, and he feels there isn't much more for him to do. However, he hopes to find the right buyer who will appreciate and preserve his wife's legacy - the train. The property is now on the market for just over £500,000, and Geoff is looking for someone who will keep his dream running.If you're a fan of trains and have always dreamt of owning your very own railway, this property might be the perfect fit. With its unique combination of a charming station house and a functioning train, it offers a one-of-a-kind experience that you won't find anywhere else. So, why not consider making this extraordinary property your new home? Contact the real estate agent to arrange a viewing and see for yourself the magic of having your very own train in your backyard.Peter Smith, reporting for ITV News in the Scottish Borders.

  • And finally tonight, with railfares rocketing, why not buy a house complete with its own train and track?
  • That is the unusual offering in a property sale in the Scottish borders.
  • A former station house has been converted into a six-bedroom home suitable for real-life railway children and their parents.
  • As our Scotland correspondent Peter Smith found out.
  • House for sale.
  • It’s in Newcastleton, just a few miles from Scotland’s border with England, and it’s spacious.
  • But there’s something different about this place.
  • This is the garden and this is my train.
  • Your train station?
  • Yeah, my train station and my train.
  • I see.
  • Okay.
  • The good news for any prospective buyer is this is no model.
  • It works.
  • Had you always wanted to own your very own train?
  • Not really.
  • I bought the station and I thought, well, what’s the point of having a station if you don’t have a railway track?
  • Geoff and his wife bought the abandoned station in 1990, then added a train and built their own tracks.
  • It doesn’t go very fast or far, a few hundred yards to the end of the garden one way, then back again.
  • Give it a bit more...
  • Give it a bit of whirly.
  • It’s an old lady, 71 years old.
  • Someone that buys this place will have to maintain the track.
  • What does that mean?
  • No, you don’t.
  • I haven’t touched the track for 20 years.
  • Really?
  • No.
  • You have to tighten a few nuts if you feel like it.
  • You’ve put so much into this.
  • Why move?
  • Well, my wife’s not here anymore.
  • There isn’t much more to do.
  • You’ve left your wife’s legacy here, the train.
  • Absolutely.
  • Yeah, well, there’s lots...
  • Meg of Sawtree.
  • Meg of Sawtree.
  • Yeah, that’s it.
  • All of this is on the market now for just over £500,000.
  • But for Geoff, it’s more about finding the right buyer who will keep his dream running.
