An absolute must to step inside to appreciate everything this charming character cottage has to offer. Oozing with country charm throughout, combining modern family living with a wealth of charm and character, this lovely 3-bedroom, 2 public room home provides a super option either as a family home, second home or continuing as it has done in recent times as a successful Airbnb. Nicely positioned to enjoy the beautiful surrounding countryside whilst being commutable to Edinburgh and Glasgow, the property sits within c.5 minutes’ drive of the M74.

The traditional entrance porch provides a useful spot for coats, boots and storing logs and gives a peek to the character of the property. Through to the open plan lounge / dining room, this really is a striking room with an exposed stone wall with a fireplace and cosy stove and rustic beams separating the sitting and dining areas. The second sitting room is another good-sized room which also has a stove and has a pretty window seat offering a lovely outlook across to the church, this room could work equally well as a fourth bedroom if wished. 

Off the hallway to the rear, where there is more storage, is the country style kitchen / diner which is another charming room and provides an additional option for dining whilst working well with the stable door to the rear garden for al fresco options.  The flagstone floor and block worktop are in keeping with the styling of the rest of the house and there is space for an electric range cooker, washing machine, dishwasher and fridge freezer.

A stripped and painted staircase leads to the first floor where there are two double bedrooms and a single bedroom and the family bathroom which has a four-piece suite consisting of a double shower enclosure with mains shower, a bath, w.c. and a wash hand basin set on a vanity unit.

Externally there is allocated parking as you enter the lane for 2 vehicles with a small area of enclosed garden to the rear adjacent to the kitchen and another area of garden just opposite which offers more space for the keen gardener.
