About
Beautifully refurbished, extended, detached cottage with parking, sizeable rear garden with outside entertaining space and a detached garden room.
This traditional cottage has been sympathetically refurbished and extended by the seller to provide modern, stylish, open-plan, accommodation spaciously laid out over the ground floor.
It has been finished to a high standard and includes recessed ceiling lights, engineered oak floors, tiled floors, oak internal doors, UPVC double glazing, oil fired central heating and under floor heating in the bathrooms.
The roof has also been re-slated.
The property features a beautiful, light-filled, rear facing lounge with picture windows and bi-folding doors that provide direct access to the large outdoor decked area where views can be enjoyed across the garden towards the fields beyond, a well-appointed dining kitchen, a master bedroom with bi-fold doors to the decked area and an en-suite shower room, a further two double bedrooms and three modern, stylish bathrooms.
Outside, the extensive timber decking with glass balustrades and integrated lighting provides an excellent entertaining space, with a play area and lawn beyond.
The detached utility and garden rooms are located in the rear garden and parking is available at the side of the property.
The property is located within an established, residential area in the village of Gelston, adjacent to Gelston Burn and backing on to fields at the rear.
