Description
As you step inside, the home’s character is immediately apparent. The bright and welcoming sunroom which is currently used as a dining room, enjoys views over the garden. From here, the home flows into a generous open-plan kitchen, dining, and family room—an inviting central hub for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features bespoke cabinetry, handcrafted worktops, and the iconic warmth of an AGA. Further kitchen storage is provided by a large walk-in pantry with fridge & freezer. Also on the ground floor is a versatile study, which could easily be used as a fifth bedroom, along with a shower room that includes handy cupboard space and a neatly tucked away laundry/utility room.
On the first floor, the expansive formal sitting room with partial sea views, offers wonderful proportions and period charm, with two large windows, ornate cornicing, high ceilings, and a striking cast-iron fireplace. It’s a superb room for entertaining or relaxing. Two bedrooms with made to measure shutters are also located on this level, along with a family bathroom, and a useful tea/coffee station with fridge.
The top floor hosts two further well-presented bedrooms, with bedroom 1 benefiting from a walk-in wardrobe space, and bedroom 2 enjoying beautiful sea views over to the Bass Rock and North Berwick Harbour. There is also a shower room on this floor with excellent eaves storage, again offering flexible accommodation for guests, teenagers, or working from home.
Externally, Red Roofs enjoys a beautifully maintained private courtyard garden, sunken and sheltered for privacy, providing a peaceful outdoor space to enjoy. A Monoblock driveway provides off-street parking for two cars, and a large detached garage offers further secure storage or workshop potential. Further unrestricted on-street parking is available right outside the property.
Red Roofs, 10 Abbey Road, is a unique opportunity to own a character-filled Victorian home in one of North Berwick’s most desirable locations. With generous and flexible living accommodation over three floors, period features throughout, and easy access to all the charm of the town, it offers an exceptional lifestyle by the sea.
