One of the most striking properties in the Scottish Borders. Shankend Farm lies some 700 feet above sea level, off the B6399 Hawick to Newcastleton Road, in the hills 7 1/2 miles South of Hawick.
Set in front of the stunning backdrop of the Shankend Viaduct, a magnificent 15 arched bridge on the disused Waverly line, is Shankend Lodge.

To the rear of the House are a number of outbuildings, including stabling for up to 6 horses and the original Farmhouse, built in 1794 and currently used as part of the steading.
The land belonging to the Farm is a combination of grazing and mixed woodland extending to in all about 95 Acres.
