A distinctive B‑listed former post office set on Main Street in Tyninghame, this detached stone cottage combines period character with bright, minimalist interiors. Ground-floor reception rooms span the depth of the house, with a cosy living room featuring a log burner and a social country-style kitchen/dining area that suit everyday family life and informal entertaining.
Upstairs offers three double bedrooms, including a notably generous principal suite with built-in storage and an en‑suite shower room, plus a separate modern shower room for family use. The house benefits from good natural light, traditional timber sash‑style windows and high ceilings that accentuate the internal space of c.123 sq m (approx. 1,326 sq ft).
Outside there is a neat side garden and a small external store/lean‑to; parking is unrestricted on-street. Practical strengths include freehold title, excellent mobile reception and fast broadband, while flood risk is low and council tax is moderate.
Important practical considerations: the property is B‑listed, so alterations or extensions will be restricted and require listed‑building consent; this can add cost and limit refurbishment options. The garden and plot are small-to-average and may not suit buyers seeking extensive outdoor space or off‑street parking.
This home will suit buyers who value period charm, generous principal accommodation and a village‑centre location — families or professionals seeking character with modern comforts, and buyers prepared to work within listed‑building constraints.
