The property

Closing date set 12 noon Tuesday 4th May Promising a substantial detached family home with an enviable seaside town address, The Lodge is centrally located in Gullane, within walking distance of its breath-taking sandy beach. Behind its handsome Tudor-style exterior, the immaculate house boasts a wealth of versatile accommodation, incorporating three/four bedrooms, three bathrooms and ‘upside-down living' designed to maximise privacy and natural light into the home's multiple living areas. Elegant, understated interiors, excellent private parking, including an integral garage, and a low-maintenance wraparound garden complete this highly appealing proposition. Welcoming you into the home is a practical vestibule leading into an airy reception hall with built-in storage. From here, stairs lead up to the first-floor living accommodation, reached via a galleried landing with further built-in storage. Benefiting from all day sun via dual-aspect windows, the living room is arranged around a homely living-flame fire and flows openly into an equally sunny, triple-aspect sunroom also accessible from the landing. Both areas are plushly carpeted and enhanced by characterful exposed ceiling beams. Across the landing, the kitchen is adjoined by a large dual-aspect dining area and heightened by further exposed ceiling beams – a perfect sociable space for gathering as a family or with guests! The kitchen comes well-appointed with modern cream cabinetry, including a central island, paired with plentiful workspace. Neatly integrated goods comprise an eye-level oven and a microwave, a ceramic hob with a feature hood, a dishwasher, and a larder fridge. A freestanding freezer and a washer dryer are housed in a ground-floor utility room with handy garden access. Completing the upper level of accommodation is one of the four double bedrooms on offer and a three-piece family bathroom. The bedroom is supplemented by incorporated storage and currently utilised as a formal dining room. Returning to the ground floor and leading off the hall are three further double bedrooms, including the sumptuous master suite which features a sunny dual-aspect bedroom with outstanding fitted storage and an en-suite shower room with a WC, dual basins, and a large shower enclosure. The remaining bedrooms comprise a dual-aspect bedroom with incorporated storage and another with an en-suite shower room. The property benefits from efficient gas central heating and triple glazing throughout. Externally, the house is hugged by wraparound gardens, paved and gravelled for easy upkeep. The gardens are attractively bordered by plant beds and include a dining terrace with a favourably south-facing position. Private parking for multiple vehicles is provided with a private driveway and an integral single garage.
