Summary - 30C, SIDEGATE, HADDINGTON EH41 4BU
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Affordable character flat near town amenities and countryside access.
Freehold one-bedroom first-floor flat in Georgian period building
Bright open-plan reception and kitchen with built-in storage
Double bedroom with cupboard storage
Delightful shared rear garden plus private external store
Unrestricted on-street parking; fast broadband and excellent mobile signal
Modest overall size (~474 sq ft); compact room layouts
Electric heating and accessed via shared vestibule/stairs
Area recorded as very deprived — factor for resale/rental potential
This bright first-floor flat sits within a handsome Georgian terrace in central Haddington, offering compact, well-arranged living for a single buyer or couple. The open-plan reception and kitchen create a social, light-filled main space, while the double bedroom includes built-in storage. A small private external store and a delightful shared rear garden add valuable outside space.
Practical strengths include freehold tenure, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, plus very low council tax and unrestricted on-street parking. The property is a short walk from local shops, cafes and community amenities, and the nearby countryside is easily reached — Edinburgh is about 40 minutes by car.
Notable negatives are the flat’s modest size (approx. 474 sq ft) and street-facing position, so it suits someone seeking a compact home rather than large-room living. Heating is electric, and access is via a shared vestibule and stair — important for anyone needing ground-floor entry. The surrounding area is recorded as having high deprivation, which may influence future resale or rental prospects.
Overall this is a straightforward, affordable entry into the Haddington market: low running costs, characterful period features and outside space are balanced against limited internal floor area and basic services. It’s best for a first-time buyer or downsizer prioritising location and value over generous room sizes.
