Historic two-bedroom seaside cottage — perfect project or holiday let close to the beach.
- Stone's throw from the beach and harbour
- Characterful Category C listed cottage, circa 1800
- Compact layout: lounge, kitchen/diner, bathroom, two double bedrooms
- Needs renovation; likely requires specialist listed-building consent
- Energy Rating G and slow broadband; budget for upgrades
- Mains services present; gas central heating currently disconnected
- Excellent mobile signal and low council tax (Band B)
- Small size; best as holiday let, second home, or pied-à-terre
Ella’s Cottage is a compact, historic two-bedroom cottage situated on Chapel Street, a stone’s throw from Eyemouth beach and harbour. Its waterside position and period charm suit buyers seeking a true coastal lifestyle or investors targeting holiday lets. The property’s size is small and best suited to buyers wanting a lock-and-leave second home or a modest permanent residence.
The cottage retains character features and offers a straightforward layout: ground-floor lounge, fitted kitchen with dining space and a bathroom, plus two double bedrooms upstairs with some built-in storage. Mobile signal is excellent for connectivity; mains services are present and the property previously had a mains gas central heating system (currently disconnected).
Important practical points: the building is Category C listed and dates to circa 1800, which will restrict alterations and could complicate works. The property needs renovation, has an Energy Rating G, and broadband speeds are slow — all factors to budget for. There is no flooding risk and council tax is modest (Band B).
This cottage will appeal to buyers who prize location and character over move-in-ready condition: renovators, holiday-let investors, or those seeking a small seaside home. With sympathetic upgrading and listed-building guidance, it could become a charming coastal bolt-hole or a short-term rental with strong seasonal demand.
