Situated in picturesque Gifford, some three miles south of the historic market town of Haddington and twenty-five miles east of the centre of Edinburgh and recognised as one of Scotland’s prettiest villages,1 Burnside Cottages is a delightful, contemporary two storey, four-bedroom, end terrace house with a traditional appearance.

Overlooking the village’s bowling green, the house has harled walls and sits under a pitched tile roof with slated verges and dormer windows that are similarly slated; it has an established garden and its own allocated parking space, along with two additional shared spaces for visitors.

Owner occupied and recently redecorated throughout; the front door opens into the hall that has two built-in store cupboards and oak flooring that extends through to the living room, kitchen, and dining area. The living room has French doors that open onto a patio that borders the bowling green. It is a wonderfully bright room with a log burning stove and has twin doors leading to the adjoining dining area. The immaculate country style kitchen features sage green shaker-style cabinets, including glass fronted upper versions, vertical tile splash backs, integrated appliances and an Everhot, cast iron, electric range cooker (which can be included via separate negotiations). The boiler is also housed in the kitchen. The dual aspect dining area adjoins both the kitchen and the sitting room and provides a generous, versatile space for dining and entertaining. The fourth bedroom is on the ground floor and, currently, is used as a study, its wainscoting and dado rail enhancing the feeling of privacy and seclusion. The traditionally styled w.c. has tongue-and-groove lower wall panelling paired with an art nouveau inspired wallpaper above and a tiled floor. Finishing this level is the converted utility cupboard housing the plumbed in washing machine and tumble dryer. There is also under stair storage.

The staircase with spindle banister leads to the first-floor landing that has a Velux window. The principal bedroom is dual aspect, with the twin windows looking towards Station Road and the dormer towards the bowling green. It has a partially tiled, naturally lit en-suite bathroom with a white three-piece suite, a shower over the bath and underfloor electric heating. There are a further two well-proportioned double bedrooms; one has a built-in wardrobe. The family bathroom, with a window set in the coomb, again, has a three-piece suite with a shower over the bath. Access to the roof voids is via ceiling hatches in the first-floor landing and front bedroom ceilings; the main roof void is floored.

The house is double glazed and has an oil-fired central heating system. The subterranean oil tank is in the garden. The sheltered, archetypal, south facing cottage garden is enclosed and sits to the front of the house. Now well – established, it includes a summer house and, consequently, enhances the house’s appearance.

Location:
Gifford is widely regarded as one of East Lothian's most attractive and desirable conservation villages, nestled at the foot of the Lammermuir Hills and surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside. The village enjoys a strong sense of community and offers an excellent range of local amenities including cafés, restaurants, a primary school, village hall, bowling club and active community groups.

The surrounding area provides exceptional opportunities for outdoor recreation, with woodland walks through Yester Estate, access to the Lammermuir Hills and East Lothian's renowned coastline all within easy reach. Golf enthusiasts are particularly well served by Gifford Golf Club and a number of internationally recognised courses across the county including Gullane, North Berwick and Muirfield.
