Irvine House is an enchanting, compact, residential fishing estate, situated in an attractive wooded setting on the Border Esk. The combination of An attractive country house, a lodge cottage (and outbuildings), parkland and grazing, adjacent to attractive and productive sea trout and salmon fishing, is most unusual. This is particularly so in south west Scotland, where much of the land is owned by large long term landowners, and hidden gems such as Irvine House therefore rarely become available.

Irvine House is at the centre of the property and was, until recent times, the factors house for the Duke of Buccleuchs Eskdale & Liddesdale Estate. The house has a lovely south facing façade with later additions. The accommodation flows well and has an excellent balance of reception rooms for entertaining and bedroom accommodation. The house requires some modification but there is plenty of scope to adapt parts of the house to create a secondary accommodation/annexes and/or office accommodation.

At the back of the house is a range of outbuildings which are in need of restoration. Irvine House has a Lodge Cottage, which itself has a good range of outbuildings, and is currently let under a short assured tenancy.

There are approximately 12.85 acres of good grazing land in three fields and which are let seasonally producing useful income. At the north end of the estate is the walled garden. Irvine House has an agricultural holding number.
