The property

Closing date set for Wednesday 31st March at 12 noon This exceptional, three-bedroom apartment offers a sophisticated and contemporary home, set within a magnificent Victorian building. Situated on the first floor (with lift access) of Gullane’s iconic and beautifully refurbished former Marine Hotel, it offers the perfect, sought after combination of period charm and contemporary design, combined with a wonderful, southerly outlook. Nestled in Gullane, one of East Lothian’s most sought-after villages, it represents a superb, exclusive residence for those seeking a tranquil setting, yet within striking distance of Edinburgh. Perfectly designed for modern living with sympathetically preserved period features, every inch of the property is completed to an exacting specification that is synonymous with CALA, its award-winning developer. This impressive building is entered via an imposing, communal front door, with a video and tag security system, leading to a communal lobby. The grand yet welcoming atmosphere is enhanced by an impressive fireplace and a magnificent, oak staircase, which curves upwards to the first-floor private entrance, with the alternative of an accessible modern lift. Once inside, the central reception hallway (which boasts two convenient storage cupboards) invites you through into the superb, open-plan kitchen, living and dining room with direct access to the sunny private balcony. Filled with natural light, it boasts exceptionally generous dimensions, with space for a range of seating and dining furniture, set around a deep bay window, which frames the sunny, southerly outlook. Accessed from here is a balcony, offering a perfect, elevated alfresco space from where to enjoy the rooftop views over the East Lothian countryside. The stylish, open-plan kitchen enjoys a generous sweep of sleek, handless units, with contrasting worktops, softly lit by LED under-unit lighting, and discretely incorporating a superb range of integrated appliances: an induction hob, cooker hood, double oven, fridge/freezer and dishwasher, [TBC]. A central island, incorporating a breakfast bar, is perfectly designed for informal dining and socialising while cooking. There is a useful store cupboard, and a conveniently adjacent, separate utility room, which offers a discreet laundry space, and extra hidden storage. The master bedroom is quietly situated to one side of the apartment. It shares the open southerly outlook, and balcony access, and offers a wonderfully tranquil retreat, enhanced by the airy decor and plush carpeting. It boasts a generous floorplan, incorporating a spacious walk-in, fitted dressing room, and a luxuriously appointed en-suite shower room. Accessed from the hallway are two further bedrooms, each enjoying the beneficial, southerly aspects, featuring neutral décor, and offering built-in wardrobes. Double bedroom two comes with a deep bay window, whilst smaller double bedroom three enjoys good storage and could also be used as an ideal home office. The pristine, main bathroom, styled to match to the master en-suite, comes complete with a bath with shower over, a contemporary WC-suite with vanity storage, and stylish, white-tiled décor. A walk-in cupboard provides further useful storage. Finally, an efficient gas central heating system and double glazing ensure efficient warmth and comfort throughout this exceptional apartment. Externally, Marine House sits within beautifully landscaped and well-maintained grounds, offering peaceful green spaces for outdoor enjoyment.
