Cottage for sale in Lauder TD2, 4 Bedroom

Huntsmans Cottage is a unique property which has been upgraded to a high standard as part of the Green Initiative, therefore offering many eco features including solar panels and ground source Geothermal heating. Enjoying a lovely rural but not isolated setting with breathtaking views, this is an ideal prospect for those with a yearn for 'the good life' as there is a separate section of ground perfect for chickens, vegetables or even a few sheep, whilst to the front there is a cabin which has traded as a cattery. For the commuter wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle, this is an ideal location as the A68 is closeby, bringing Edinburgh city centre into comfortable travelling distance. Entered to the rear by a spacious porch, the interior has an unusual quirky layout and a contemporary feel, with the large ground floor hall spacious enough to accommodate a little desk and accessing a family room, utility room, spacious well appointed bathroom (with double shower enclosure) and the three bedrooms, one of which includes an internal shower room. An attractive staircase leads up to the fantastic open plan living space, which is bathed in light from several velux windows offering views to both front and rear and large enough to accommodate a dining area; opening through to the stylish kitchen. In order to fully grasp the location and potential of this traditional yet thoroughly modern cottage, viewing is considered a must

Outside

Bounded to the front by a drystane dyke, the entrance provides generous off road parking and accesses the cabin formerly a cattery. The garden to the rear is designed to be easily kept and includes a couple of decked sitting areas. The separate section of land has great scope; whilst not quite large enough to be suitable as a paddock, it could certainly be of appeal to those who would like to have a small number of livestock, or wish lots of play space for children and pets.
