A generous C‑listed stone farmhouse set on a large private plot, this four‑bedroom home suits a family seeking space and character close to Dalkeith and good commuting links to Edinburgh. Period features — sash windows, fireplaces and high ceilings — combine with contemporary living areas, three ensuite bathrooms and flexible ground‑floor accommodation including a study or family room.
The rear garden is a key asset: predominantly lawn, established herbaceous borders, patio sun trap and two useful garden stores. A gated, shared driveway leads to private off‑street parking. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make the house practical for modern family life and working from home.
There are important practical considerations. The property is C‑listed which will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance or extension plans. The EPC is Band D, so heating and insulation improvements are likely to be needed to reduce running costs. The immediate wider area is recorded as very deprived, which may affect local services and resale perceptions despite the comfortable suburbia and rural traits.
Overall this is a spacious, characterful family home with strong potential for sympathetic upgrading. Buyers should be prepared for listed‑building responsibilities and likely works to improve energy performance, but will benefit from the property’s scale, garden and proximity to parks, schools and leisure facilities.
