Description

Situated in prestigious North Berwick, East Garth is a charming property located on the ground floor of a substantial and traditional residence. This delightful home, belonging to the same family for more than 60 years, presents a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional lower villa with a private, south facing and beautifully established garden.

Requiring some cosmetic upgrades, the new owner will have the opportunity to stamp their own style on their home and create an outstanding family residence.

External steps to the front left of the building lead you around the side of the house, through the gate and into the tranquil and well stocked rear garden. Entering via the welcoming vestibule and light, airy hallway, the stunning drawing room is a spectacular space in which to entertain and relax. Generously proportioned with high ceilings and flooded with natural light from the box bay window, it features parquet flooring, and an open fireplace nestled in a stylish tiled hearth. Distant views to Craigleith Island and the Firth of Forth can be seen from this side of the property. Across the hallway, you enter a versatile family/dining room with south-facing triple sash and case windows and an open fireplace overlooking the peaceful garden.

Returning to the hallway, three bright and spacious double bedrooms await, each adorned with tasteful décor. Two of the bedrooms showcase original fireplaces, one has parquet flooring, and they all have classic eight-pane window frames. They share access to a large traditional bathroom equipped with a WC, bath, washbasin, and towel radiator.

The east-facing kitchen, featuring white wall and floor units, a tiled splash-back, breakfast bar and walk-in pantry, is accessed through the family/dining room. Ample space allows for freestanding appliances. Beyond the kitchen lies a modern shower room/WC leading onto a peaceful study with garden views. Finally, a comfortable single bedroom with a delightful aspect is adjacent to a large walk-in cupboard and back door. Within the garden and adjoining this part of the property are three sizeable stores, each with the potential to convert subject to planning consent.

Externally, the south facing garden boasts a suntrap patio area, large lawn with established trees and colourful borders, all of which create an idyllic retreat.
