This traditional two-storey cottage sits on the edge of Auchmithie with an elevated private decking area that captures uninterrupted sea and cliff views. The house has period charm—feature fireplace, Velux windows upstairs and compact, well-proportioned rooms—making it appealing for downsizers seeking a coastal base or investors aiming for a holiday let after refurbishment.
The layout comprises a front lounge, kitchen, ground-floor tiled shower room, two double bedrooms and a first-floor WC. Oil central heating and a large private outbuilding add practical value, while the freehold tenure and no recorded flood risk provide long-term security.
The property requires renovation and modernisation: expect improvements to internal finishes and possible roof and damp attention suggested by the age and description. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is average, which may affect remote working. The village is in a very deprived area classification, which can affect resale pricing and rental demand.
For buyers who prioritise location and views over turnkey condition, this cottage offers clear potential. With some investment it could become a comfortable seaside home for retirees or downsizers, or a sought-after short-let for visitors exploring the Seaton Cliffs and Arbroath coastline.
