House For Sale £440,000
This late Victorian detached cottage is a charming three-bedroom residence, which benefits from the spacious rooms and high ceilings typical of its era, alongside stylish interior design finished to modern standards. The southeast-facing home further boasts a Shaker-inspired dining kitchen and two premium washrooms. Plus, it has private parking for multiple vehicles and a large corner plot, ensuring ample garden grounds to enjoy. Situated in the market town of Haddington, the property has a desirable location offering proximity to East Lothian’s picturesque countryside and nearby coastline. It is within easy reach of excellent amenities, schools, and transport links, including the A1 for a direct commute into Edinburgh (which takes roughly 35 minutes by car).
South Lodge has instant kerb appeal, with a stone-built façade and an ornate front garden. The front door opens into a vestibule and a central hall (with built-in storage and Karndean flooring), immediately establishing the quality of the home before flowing through to the living area.
Lightly decorated in a sumptuous hue and with white detailing, the living room has an elegant aesthetic that draws attention to the room’s attractive features and spacious dimensions. It is enhanced by a hardwood floor and enjoys a light and airy ambience thanks to dual-aspect windows (including a southeast-facing bay window). A handsome fireplace (inset with a gas stove) forms an eye-catching focal point, along with a charming in-built display area for added decoration. Homely and comfortable, it is the ideal setting for relaxing and socialising.
The dining kitchen has expansive proportions to accommodate a table and chairs, alongside a well-appointed range of cabinets and generous worksurface space. It has a modern Shaker-inspired design, arranged around a central island with a breakfast bar; plus, it features undercabinet lighting and chic splashback tiles. A gas hob, an electric fan oven/grill, and dishwasher come integrated, with space for additional freestanding appliances. Furthermore, the room boasts triple-aspect glazing, including French doors that flow out to the rear garden for summer entertaining.
The principal and second bedrooms are both large doubles with varnished wooden floorboards, whilst the third bedroom (currently organised as a nursery) is a versatile double that is laid with soft carpeting for maximum comfort. The principal bedroom also has a neat picture rail and the added luxury of an en-suite shower room. Meanwhile, bedroom two benefits from a built-in wardrobe and the third bedroom features dual-aspect windows.
The family bathroom and the principal bedroom’s en-suite shower room are both equipped with modern fixtures and fittings. The family bathroom features attractive tile work and a threepiece suite, incorporating a hiddencistern toilet, a washbasin, and a bath with an overhead shower. The three-piece en-suite is in white with a double walk-in shower cubicle. The property has ultra-fast broadband, and is insulated for efficiency, including under the floor and in the attic spaces.
South Lodge is enveloped by carefully landscaped gardens to the front and rear, featuring circular lawns fringed by established shrubs and easy-to-maintain stone bays. The mature rear garden further boasts a sizeable footprint and complete privacy, as well as a patio, two sheds (one with electricity and lighting), and a greenhouse (with power). It is an idyllic haven for summer dining. A multi-car driveway and detached garage provide private parking for several vehicles. The garage has power and is partly used as a gym by the current owner.
Extras: all fitted floor and window coverings, select light fittings, integrated kitchen appliances, a Bosch fridge/freezer, and a Bosch washing machine to be included in the sale. Additional furniture may be included/available by negotiation. Please note, no warranties or guarantees shall be provided in relation to any of the moveables and/or appliances included in the price, as these items are to be left in a sold as seen condition.
