The property

Enjoying an idyllic location in the heart of the East Lothian countryside, this two-bedroom end-terraced cottage boasts a wealth of original features, bright and spacious rooms, a bespoke, handmade kitchen, desirable open-plan living, a versatile conservatory, a delightful garden and two detached garages. The front door opens into a welcoming hallway housing two useful storage cupboards. The hall is fitted with handsome original wood flooring which flows through all of the accommodation. Leading off the hall is the wonderfully bright and spacious south-facing open-plan kitchen, living and dining area. Arranged around a cosy multi-fuel stove, the living and dining area offers excellent scope for a variety of furniture layouts, and a charming box window creates the perfect space for a table and chairs for seated dining. The bespoke, handmade kitchen is fitted with an excellent range of solid-wood cabinets framed by matching worktops lit by integrated downlighting. It has been designed to incorporate an integrated eye-level double oven, a sleek hob and an extractor hood, as well an under counter dishwasher and a tall fridge. This delightful cottage houses two generously-proportioned double bedrooms. Both bedrooms benefit from tasteful, neutral décor, charming, recessed sash-and-case windows with working shutters and excellent fitted storage, whilst the larger bedroom (accessed from the reception area or the hall) enjoys a sunny south-facing aspect. Completing the internal accommodation is a bright bathroom, comprising a shower-over-bath with a glazed screen, a pedestal basin and a back-to-wall WC. Electric heating, a multi-fuel stove and double glazing throughout ensure a warm and economically-run home all year round. Externally, a conservatory, attached to the garage, is currently being utilised as a formal dining room with a sitting area and features a homely multi-fuel stove. This wonderfully-versatile space bathes in southerly sunshine and opens onto the garden – perfect for alfresco entertaining during the warmer months! The beautifully-maintained, sun-trap rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and incorporates a large vegetable plot, a drying green and a patio; all bordered by mature trees and shrubs. Excellent private parking is provided by a double garage and a further single garage/workshop, as well as a large parking area with space for several vehicles.
