The property

This stunning five bedroom, detached house with landscaped garden, double garage and driveway is set within a lovely established development in the coastal village of Aberlady, a short walk to the primary school and the main street. From as early as 1149 Aberlady was an active harbour. The affluence that this beautiful conservation village enjoyed can be seen in its buildings and the Custom House still remains. With the arrival of larger ships during the 1800's Aberlady diminished as a port and the beautiful sandy shoreline is now a nature reserve. 1876 saw the arrival of Kilspindie Golf Course and there are many other courses in the immediate area that offer first class golf including Luffness, Gullane, Muirfield, The Renaissance, Craigielaw, Archerfield and The Glen and The West in North Berwick. This is a thriving village with a range of amenities including local shops, a post office and restaurants. There is an excellent primary school and secondary education is catered for in North Berwick around seven miles along the coast. Recreational activities include an active bowling club, a bird watching centre, the nature reserve and beautiful country walking. There is a regular bus service to North Berwick and Edinburgh with rail links available from Drem and Longniddry. The property is beautifully presented with generous living space which has been extended by the current owners. The accommodation consists of an entrance hallway with under stair storage, a beautifully extended kitchen/dining /family room with bi-fold doors to the garden. The contemporary kitchen has been cleverly designed with a range of fitted units and integrated appliances. The newly laid Woodpecker, oak parquet flooring finishes the room off perfectly. There is plenty of space for dining and for comfortable seating, and with the bi-fold doors open, the space extends out to the garden decking. There is a lounge with a gas stove, triple windows to the front of the property and a side window with a window seat, a good sized family room or fifth bedroom and a study. There is also a smart cloakroom and a utility room which has access to both the garage and the rear garden. The upper floor has a master bedroom with built-in wardrobes, a large ensuite wet room with rain shower and under floor heating, a guest double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a smart ensuite shower room again with under floor heating. There are two further double bedrooms both with built-in wardrobes and a contemporary family bathroom with under floor heating. All bathrooms have recently been replaced by the current owners to a very high standard. There is access to the attic from the landing and a large cupboard housing the boiler. Gas central heating and double glazing are installed. The front garden has been designed with attractive borders, a pathway and a very useful wooden ‘welly' store. There is side access to the rear garden. The rear garden has been beautifully landscaped with tiered raised beds with a lovely range of planting, a decked area and a patio to enjoy outside entertaining and an area of lawn. There is a double garage and a driveway. The property also benefits from a recently upgraded alarm system which includes CCTV.
