Muirfield, Belhaven Road, Dunbar, EH42 1NH

Occupying a highly sought-after position in Dunbar, this handsome detached and rarely available five-bedroom home combines elegant period features with a versatile layout spanning 2889 sq.ft, well-appointed interiors, and delightful front and rear gardens. Tucked behind manicured hedges, a pathway bordered by a neat lawn and colourful planting leads to the front door and into a welcoming vestibule, beautifully finished with original mosaic floor tiling. The property will benefit from some upgrading, and modernisation.

From here, an inviting hallway introduces the home's impressive living spaces. The stunning bay-windowed sitting room enjoys tranquil south-east-facing garden views and showcases elegant period details, including intricate cornicing, a ceiling rose, and an open fireplace set within a marble surround, an ideal setting for stylish entertaining and relaxation. Across the hallway is a south-east-facing family room showcasing an original fireplace, handsome wooden flooring, and ornate cornicing and offering flexible use to suit modern family lifestyles. Peacefully positioned looking across the rear garden lies a formal dining room boasting a tasteful decor and carpeting.

A spacious kitchen with access to the large and well-appointed conservatory also lies to the rear and is fitted with rich chestnut cabinetry, stone-effect worktops, and a tiled splashback. High-spec integrated appliances include a wine fridge, eye-level grill, oven, and microwave, while the thoughtfully designed layout accommodates casual dining and an adjacent utility offers further storage. East-facing, a second family room offers a cosy and inviting space in which to unwind and escape the hustle and bustle. Completing the ground floor layout is a guest WC.

A carpeted staircase with an original oak banister sweeps past a striking stained-glass window, leading to the first floor. The principal double bedroom is a light, airy, and serene south-east-facing retreat, accompanied by four additional well-presented and generously proportioned double bedrooms. All share a classically styled bathroom with a WC, washbasin, and bath with wall-mounted shower.

Externally, the idyllic south-east-facing garden to the front has been meticulously kept and boasts a neat lawn with pretty borders. To the rear, a lawn and decking create a peaceful and private outdoor escape to be enjoyed by friends and family. There is a detached garage for off-street parking.
