Property Description
**** rare opportunity to purchase 'B' listed house with extensive walled garden and outbuildings offering potential development option ****
Nestled in the idyllic conservation village of Dirleton in scenic East Lothian, this 18th century b-listed house and adjoining former gallery represent a truly unique development opportunity with extensive walled grounds, substantial external storage/workshop areas and a double garage.
House
Occupying a prominent position next to Dirleton Kirk and overlooking the peaceful village green, which extends south to the walled gardens of Dirleton Castle, this b-listed house dates back to the late 18th century, and was extended with a single-storey eastern wing circa 1840. Positioned behind a delightful south-facing front garden bound by a white picket fence, the handsome front door opens into a generous tiled entrance hall. A second front door in the eastern wing also allows direct access to a separate entrance vestibule. Now in need of extensive renovation and modernisation, the main house comprises a wealth of flexible accommodation over two levels, and has retained a stunning array of original features that are ripe for restoration, including period fireplaces, panelled doors and traditional casement/sash-and-case windows with timber shutters. The accommodation comprises three versatile reception rooms; a central dining room with an oil-fired Aga, a pantry and a scullery; a second kitchen area; four double bedrooms; a single bedroom; a modern wet room and a traditional three-piece bathroom. To the rear is an enormous walled garden with a greenhouse and an external store; there is also ample off-street parking to the front.
Gallery
An early 20th century addition to the plot, this substantial two-storey industrial building most recently housed an art gallery, and comprises two large exhibition halls each supplemented with storage areas, as well as kitchen facilities, a double garage/workshop, a walled courtyard with a store, and four external WCs. The accommodation would lend itself to endless commercial uses, however also offers tremendous potential for possible conversion subject to requisite Planning Consent.
