Property Description

On the southern shore of the Firth of Forth, North Berwick is an attractive and popular harbour town approximately 25 miles East of Edinburgh. From its picturesque 12th century harbour the East and West bays are both beautiful sandy beaches with stunning views to the Bass Rock, Craigleith, Lamb, Fidra and beyond to the Fife coast.
This town has much to offer with a wide range of recreational activities including the award winning Seabird Centre, the Yacht Club, boat trips to the Bass Rock and its famous gannet colony, tennis courts and a sports centre with swimming pool, to name but a few.
For the golf enthusiast the Glen and the West Links are close at hand with many others in the surrounding area including Gullane, Archerfield, Craigielaw and The Open Championship Course at Muirfield. There is a great range of gift shops, coffee shops and restaurants on the High Street and excellent schooling from nursery to secondary levels.
Convenient for the commuter, North Berwick has regular rail links and bus services to Edinburgh and the A1 provides easy access by car to the city (40 minutes), the by-pass, the M8 and M9 motorway networks and the airport.
Property
This unique property was built in the mid 1800’s and offers generous accommodation with plenty of character. The entrance to the property is through a wrought iron gate and leads to attractive double doors and a small porch. The dining room has a window overlooking the walled garden and leads through to the kitchen which has fitted units and a door leading out to the garden. There is a cloakroom with a w.C and also houses the washing machine. The good sized lounge sits at the front of the house and has an attractive fireplace with gas flame fire and double windows looking on to Forth Street. The landing has a sky light which fills the space with natural light. There is a master bedroom with an attractive bay window, a press style cupboard, and also benefiting from a separate dressing room, two further double bedrooms and a family shower room are all on this level. Gas central heating is installed and there is secondary glazing in the lounge. There is a good sized attic with a Ramsay ladder for access. This property would benefit from modernising which would give buyers the opportunity to put their own stamp on it.
The walled garden to the rear of the property is fully enclosed and has side access to the front of the house. This south facing garden is a sun trap and is fully paved allowing plenty of room to entertain and to take advantage of the sun throughout the day. There is some mature planting, including an apple tree and a shed.
Early viewing is highly recommended.
Parking permits are available on application for residents living on this street.
