Tantallon House is one of the \‘landmark\‘ houses within the popular commuter village of Muirhead and a locally admired \‘Victorian\‘ family home.
Set on a prominent corner site within the original part of Muirhead, Tantallon House has been transformed by then addition of a large rear extension and the imaginative development of its attic into a guest suite, on partial open plan to a substantial recreation room.
The renovation of this handsome, classically styled family home has been carried out with considerable care retaining the original and defining architectural features including: stained glass windows, ornate ceiling cornice plasterwork (with corbels and celling roses), picture rails, balustrades and patterned quarry tiled floors.
Providing impressive and versatile accommodation the property comprises: entrance porch, broad, welcoming reception hall, bay windowed lounge, sitting room, family room/study (used as a library), truly exceptional 28\‘ x 19\‘ (maximum) family sized dining kitchen with integral utility room, pantry and French doors to the rear garden and 13\‘ x 12\‘ shower room with Doulton suite completes the ground floor. The first floor offers a bay windowed master bedroom with cleverly installed en-suite shower room, 3 further double bedrooms and quality tiled family bathroom with rolled top bath. Considerable imagination has been used in adapting the attic floor into a recreation room and semi open plan guest suite with bedroom and \‘state of the art\‘ en-suite bathroom (incorporating a shower enclosure and WC compartment - with curved wall).
Tantallon House boasts an attached (dry lined) gymnasium - originally the garage of the property and a purpose built garden studio / recreation room with French doors and low voltage down lighting. Extensive double glazing. Gas fired central heating system.
The beautifully landscaped garden offers exceptional privacy and features split - level patios, garden pond with fountain, \‘Victorian\‘ lamp standard and is perfectly suited to the rigours of modern family life.
