***UNEXPECTEDLY BACK ON THE MARKET AS OF 2ND OCTOBER 2026***

Set within beautifully generous gardens and enjoying a peaceful semi-rural position with sweeping countryside views, this charming extended detached cottage effortlessly combines timeless period character with the space and flexibility required for modern family living. Approached via ample private parking, the property occupies an enviable edge-of-village setting, offering a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity while remaining exceptionally well connected to both Edinburgh and Glasgow via nearby road networks and rail links within easy walking distance.

Internally, the home offers bright, spacious, and highly versatile accommodation arranged over two floors. Thoughtfully extended and beautifully proportioned throughout, the property features three generous double bedrooms (one on the ground floor) together with a fourth single bedroom or ideal home office/study, perfectly suited to growing families or those working from home. Two inviting reception rooms enjoy an abundance of natural light and provide superb spaces for both relaxed everyday living and formal entertaining, while the contemporary breakfasting kitchen serves as the heart of the home, combining practicality with style. A well-appointed four-piece family bathroom, additional WC, and excellent storage further enhance the home's practicality.

A particularly outstanding feature of the property is the substantial garden grounds extending to approximately one-third of an acre. Predominantly laid to lawn with ample space for outdoor dining, entertaining, and family enjoyment, the gardens offer enormous potential for further landscaping and development. Subject to the appropriate planning permissions, there is exciting scope for extensions, garden rooms, workshops, or additional outbuildings, making this an exceptional opportunity to create a truly bespoke lifestyle property in a sought-after countryside setting.
