1 bedroom cottage

This traditional mid-terrace cottage is a charming stone-built residence, which offers a picturesque rural lifestyle in the conservation village of Cockburnspath, surrounded by open countryside and rolling hills. With a fishing harbour and stunning beaches very close by, it has a truly idyllic location with impressive views. It is also just under one hour by car from Edinburgh city centre. The property features an open-plan reception area with a fitted kitchen, one double bedroom, and a shower room, as well as a private garden with a summerhouse. Inside the home, you are greeted by an entrance hall that provides a warm welcome. On the right is the open-plan kitchen, living and dining room. Here, neutral décor is paired with a hardwood floor and floor tiles (for the kitchen area), creating an airy and inviting ambience. It has light streaming in from front windows and Velux rooflights; plus, it enjoys charming exposed ceiling beams and stonework. Completing the space is a large fireplace enclosing an original cast iron stove, which forms a characterful focal point. Meanwhile, the kitchen is discreetly arranged along a single wall, fitted with white cabinets and a complementary worktop. It includes an integrated ceramic hob, oven, and microwave, as well as a freestanding washing machine and a compact fridge/freezer.

On the opposite side of the hall is the double bedroom, which continues the aesthetic of the living area, including exposed ceiling beams and rustic stonework. In addition, it is framed by a feature fireplace for added decoration. A shower room is adjacent. It is fitted with a three-piece suite, comprising a toilet, a washbasin, a quadrant shower, and a towel radiator. Finally, there is a mezzanine area (accessed from the hall via a drop-down wooden Ramsay ladder) that provides additional storage. The property has electric heating and double-glazed windows. Outside, there is a private driveway for one or two cars, leading to an archway to access the rear garden. The garden itself has a low-maintenance design that is arranged for relaxing and dining in the sun. It also has a charming summerhouse which enjoys picturesque views and the versatility to be used as a studio, an office, or a workshop.

Extras: all fitted floor coverings, window blinds, light fittings, integrated appliances, a fridge/freezer, and a washing machine to be included in the sale.
