Property description
This spacious, two bedroom terraced house offers comfortable rural living within a short and scenic drive to Edinburgh. From Pencaitland, follow the signs to Glenkinchie Distillery, then follow the winding road past the distillery car park, up a small hill, and left into a quiet lane lined on one side with red-brick cottages. Private parking at the front of the well-maintained property overlooks open fields which stretch down to the Borders from a neatly presented front garden.
As you enter this traditional two-storey brick cottage - built circa 1920 - the family lounge is on the left of a small hallway, where it boasts a wood burning stove, ample living space, and easy access to the kitchen, a surprisingly spacious and bright room which features integrated wall and floor cupboards as well as a large, 5-hob cooker. Also included in the kitchen is a pantry, currently housing the dishwasher and fridge. Access to the rear is via another small hallway with a second pantry for further storage, a utility room with window to the back garden and space for a potential study. Adjacent to this is the family bathroom, remodeled in 2012 to include an
electric shower above the bath, a toilet, and a heated towel rail. A further internal door leads into the back porch and from there into the expansive, multi-level back garden.
Upstairs, the property has a large master bedroom with commanding views of the open field to the front of the house, several forests, and the Lammermuir Hills. This spacious room also features large, built-in double wardrobes, while the second bedroom at the
rear of the house looks out over the back garden and offer another large storage cupboard which could easily be altered into an en-suite shower room. There is also scope to extend the property to the rear, where the west-facing back garden enjoys fantastic sunsets.
Enviably large, this garden is stepped with different elements on each level, including a wooden decking area, several flower beds, a wild flower garden, and ample storage space in the shape of two sheds.
The property further benefits from double glazing throughout, a recently installed electric boiler, free on street parking, reduced council tax bills that are shared with the nearby distillery, and easy access to walking and hiking routes, such as the historic Pencaitland
railway walk. Early viewing is highly recommended.
