Description


Stevenson House is a beautifully restored 16th-century country residence, set within approximately 22 acres (8.84 hectares) of private grounds, including a tranquil stretch of the River Tyne. The estate offers a rare combination of seclusion and accessibility, with mature woodlands, newly planted trees, and peaceful riverside walks enhancing its serene ambiance. 

 

The main house, dating from circa 1560, has been meticulously refurbished to a high standard and is presented in move-in condition. Its unique 'grange plan' design features a square layout around a central courtyard, rising three storeys with staircases at each corner. The first-floor reception rooms, added in the 17th century, are notably spacious and filled with natural light. 

 

Additional estate features include two additional dwellings, with a third property off the main drive available by separate negotiation. Outbuildings comprise a traditional U-shaped stable block with three stalls and a tack room, a workshop, three double garages, and a gardener's store.

 

The estate is a haven for wildlife, with regular sightings of roe deer, brown hares, and a variety of bird species. The property's location on the south bank of the River Tyne provides both privacy and convenience, situated just a short drive from the A1 motorway and approximately 30 minutes from central Edinburgh. The nearby market town of Haddington offers a range of local amenities, and the area is well-served by reputable primary and secondary schools
