The property

Sold (Stc) Enjoying a quiet location within strolling distance of outstanding amenities and the seaside, this one-bedroom, ground floor flat offers its new owner spacious interiors, private residents’ parking, and a beautifully kept communal garden. Set in a peaceful cul-de-sac behind a neatly tended front garden, a walkway (with an accessibility ramp) leads to double glass doors, where a secure entry system gives access to the building. Conveniently located on the ground floor, the front door of the flat opens into a hallway with built-in storage. The generous living room comes with a large enough footprint to be used as both a living and dining room and further benefits from a large window overlooking the garden, plus neutral décor and easy to maintain laminate flooring. Leading directly from the living room is a spacious kitchen, fitted with a good range of wall and base units. The kitchen has been designed to allow for undercounter appliances, as well as an integrated electric oven, modern electric hob and an extractor hood. The double bedroom has been comfortably carpeted and benefits from a deep, built-in wardrobe with mirrored sliding doors. Completing the internal accommodation is an attractive modern shower room, fitted with a corner shower, a matching WC-suite and contemporary taps. The seaside home also benefits from separate electric heaters within each room, controlled individually by a timer and thermostat, creating a warm yet cost-effective living environment all year round. Externally, in addition to lovely communal gardens with lawned areas, seating areas and colourful planting, there is also residents’ parking available right in front of the flat. Approximately six miles east of Edinburgh city centre on the picturesque East Lothian coastline, Musselburgh, with its seafront promenade, quaint harbour and sandy beach, offers an idyllic small-town lifestyle within easy striking distance of the capital.

Other sport and leisure highlights include Musselburgh Racecourse, which hosts regular fixtures throughout the year, as well as The Brunton Theatre. The property falls within the catchment area for excellent state schools, with private schooling also available at prestigious Loretto School.
