Murieston Cottage is a grade b listed building/offered to the mkt for the first time in 15 years. The present owners have restored, modernised & extended, to provide a comfortable mod fam home, sympathetic to its surroundings & heritage. The single storey cottage was once part of the Murieston House Country Estate & comprised a dwelling as well as a former coach house. The cott, with its high ceilings, is unique.
