Rose Cottage, High Street, Aberlady, East Lothian, EH32 0RE

Rose Cottage has an attractive and characterful façade, with squared and coursed sandstone and a unique piended M-shaped roof. Stepping inside, you are greeted by a central hall with two storage cupboards and a rear porch for muddy boots, which extends out into the back garden.

The living room is to the front of the home, providing a spacious reception area for everyday use. It is enhanced by crisp white decor and a fitted carpet, creating a neutral aesthetic that is easy to style. The room further benefits from a shelved recess for display items and it has a lovely feature fireplace, which provides this reception area with a wonderful focal point for arranging furniture.

Next door to the living area, the dining kitchen has generous dimensions to accommodate a table and chairs. It is fitted with cabinets and workspace, as well as additional built-in storage. It has a bright, south-facing aspect, and is finished with a timber-panelled ceiling and chic splashbacks. A Rayburn Royal range cooker is included (although not currently connected), along with all freestanding white goods. Furthermore, there is a useful serving hatch to the living room; plus, there is a neighbouring utility room, which has access to a handy store as well.

The four main double bedrooms are on the first floor, connected to a naturally-lit landing with storage. Overlooking the south-facing rear garden, the principal bedroom boasts an expansive footprint and a light-filled ambience. It enjoys light decor and painted wooden floorboards, as well as a handsome feature fireplace. It also offers homeowners the flexibility to be used as an additional reception space, if preferred. Meanwhile, the three remaining bedrooms on this floor are all carpeted and equipped with built-in wardrobes, with bedroom three also enjoying a feature fireplace for added decoration. A fifth double bedroom is on the ground floor, providing a built-in wardrobe and the versatility to be used as a study or home office, if required.

The bathroom is on the ground floor, enjoying bright and spacious proportions. It is fitted with a three-piece suite and an overhead shower. In addition, there is a convenient WC located on the first floor as well.

Extras: all fitted floor and window coverings, light fittings, the range cooker, a freestanding electric cooker, a fridge/freezer, a freezer, a dishwasher, and a washing machine to be included in the sale. 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.

In addition to an easy-to-maintain front garden, the property features a substantial rear garden, which is fully enclosed and with a suntrap, south-facing aspect. Laid with a sprawling lawn and a patio area, the rear garden certainly offers an abundance of space – all framed by mature planting. It comes with a greenhouse, and is perfect for all family members too, including pets. In addition, the home has an attached workshop and The Stables: a former stable now used as a separate workshop outbuilding with two large stores. Both are ideal for creative use, providing a wealth of possibilities and the potential for conversion (subject to consent).
