Description
Capple Cottage is an attractive two-bedroom cottage in the picturesque village of Garvald, offering a delightful blend of traditional charm and surprisingly spacious accommodation. While its charming exterior hints at a cosy cottage interior, the property reveals generous living spaces and a number of distinctive features within.
On entering, the former garage has been cleverly transformed into a stylish entrance hall with dedicated office space. A mezzanine level provides a versatile spot for guests or a peaceful reading nook, while a handy pantry cupboard adds valuable storage. The spacious sitting room enjoys dual-aspect windows, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere, with a wood-burning stove providing a cosy focal point. Useful built-in cupboard storage adds to the practicality of this appealing living space. Next door, the generous kitchen and dining room features country-style Shaker cabinetry, a good range of cupboards and a combination of freestanding and integrated appliances. The dining area has its own wood-burning stove, while French doors open directly onto the rear patio garden, making this a welcoming space for everyday living and entertaining. A convenient WC and a beautifully bright family bathroom, complete with shower over the bath and an integrated storage cupboard, complete the ground-floor accommodation.
Upstairs, there are two good-sized double bedrooms and an additional storage cupboard on the landing.
Outside, the low-maintenance courtyard garden features a patio bordered by mature plants and shrubs, including a lovely fig plant. Ample on-street parking is available, while an energy-efficient air-source heat pump provides heating.
Capple Cottage is a characterful home offering an appealing combination of charm, space, and modern practicality in a friendly East Lothian village.
