The property

This charming three bedroom, end terrace cottage with lovely garden, a garage and generous parking is situated in an idyllic countryside setting with stunning views under a mile from the town of Haddington. The approach to the cottage is approximately half a mile from the A6137, through a working farm and along a farm track which takes you to a row of original farm cottages. Number 6 is at the far end. Haddington is the County Town of East Lothian and is situated on the River Tyne and is on the main route from the south to Edinburgh. There are many historical buildings in this conservation area including St Mary's Church completed in the 1400's and the Town House with its dominant spire was built in 1742. Haddington enjoys excellent local shopping, banks, a variety of restaurants, a choice of clubs and evening classes and all levels of education are catered for. Recreational activities include an 18-hole golf course with many more in the surrounding area, bowling greens, squash, rugby and a sports centre with swimming pool. Many walks can be enjoyed, all within easy distance including the Lammermuir Hills, John Muir Country Park, the nature reserve at Aberlady and many more around East Lothian's stunning coastline. Situated just off the A1 on the A6137 means Haddington is only about 30 minutes from Edinburgh by road and there are regular bus services together with rail links from Drem, Longniddry and Dunbar. The generous accommodation is on one level and consists of a rear entrance porch, a modern fitted kitchen opening into an attractive lounge, with beautiful exposed beams, a multi fuel stove, an original stone feature wall and lovely views across the countryside. This leads through to a conservatory to the front of the cottage which has stunning, uninterrupted views across the countryside to Haddington and the Lammermuir Hills beyond. There is a spacious dining room leading from the lounge, an inner hall with two storage cupboards and access to the attic space, three bedrooms; one double with a built-in wardrobe and smart newly fitted en suite shower room, two single bedrooms and a modern family bathroom. There is also a cloakroom with w.c. Oil central heating and double glazing are installed. The garage has power, water and plumbing for a washing machine and the property benefits from parking to the rear, north of the property. There is a patio area to the front of the cottage which has stunning views to enjoy. The rear garden is a good size with an area of lawn, lovely mature borders and shrubs, a pergola draped in honeysuckle and a second seating area again with beautiful views. There is potential to extend this property subject to all the usual permissions. This is a fantastic opportunity to enjoy rural living yet benefiting from the best of both worlds being so close to the bustling town of Haddington which has an extremely good range of amenities.
