The property

This impressive stone built, two bedroom house with garden and driveway is set in a corner plot in the sought after Hummel Road in the coastal village of Gullane. A short walk takes you to the beautiful Gullane beach and three of Gullane’s golf courses. On the south coast of the Firth of Forth, Gullane is an especially attractive conservation village some twenty miles from Edinburgh. From Gullane Hill there are magnificent views towards the Lammermuir Hills, the coast of Fife and Edinburgh and Gullane Bents is one of the best beaches in the area. Main Street has a selection of shops including a bakery, pharmacy and two small supermarkets. There is an excellent primary school, library and numerous attractive eating places and cafes to choose from. Gullane is primarily known for its golf which has been played here since 1854. The three courses of Gullane offer excellent golf while five minutes in the car will take you to the Open Championship Course of Muirfield. With a number of quality courses in the immediate area including The West and The Glen in North Berwick, Archerfield, Luffness and Craigielaw to name but a few, this is a golfer’s paradise. Five miles east, North Berwick offers excellent secondary schooling, additional shopping and recreational activities including the Sea Bird Centre and a sports centre with swimming pool. A regular rail service from North Berwick and Drem and a direct bus service from Gullane provide easy access to Edinburgh for the commuter and the proximity to the A1 means travelling by road to the city, the city bypass and the airport is easy. This property would benefit from general modernising and offers generous accommodation including an entrance porch with original double entrance doors, tiled floor and storage and a large hallway with under stair storage. The lounge sits to the front of the house with a bay window overlooking the garden and an original fireplace. The dining kitchen has a range of fitted units, a larder, press style cupboard, double windows overlooking the garden and a door leading out to the rear garden. Also on this floor there is a shower room with built-in storage cupboards. On the upper floor there is a large double bedroom to the front of the property with lovely views across the village to the Lammermuir Hills, a fitted wardrobe and an original fireplace, a double bedroom to the rear of the property with a fitted wardrobe, and a family bathroom. The landing has a large cupboard which houses the boiler and access to the attic. The property benefits from gas central heating and mains smoke detectors. The front garden benefits from being a corner plot with plenty of space to design a garden to your taste. Currently, there is an entrance gate and gated driveway with parking for several cars, an area of lawn and it is edged with mature shrubs. The rear garden is smaller and fully enclosed, mainly laid to lawn with a drying line, mature planting and a shed.
