Property Description
A beautifully renovated Georgian 5/6 Bedroom family home dating from circa 1820, set within 1.4 acres of established gardens and grounds, together with a spacious detached gate lodge.
Briary House is situated within Mavisbank Conservation area – a scenic, semi-rural location between the small thriving towns of Lasswade and Loanhead - making it ideally positioned to enjoy the best of the country whilst still within commuting distance of Edinburgh.
Offering modern living within an historic Georgian home, the property boasts double glazing and retains some incredible period features such as elaborate egg-and-dart ceiling panels and cornicing, hardwood floors, large marble fireplaces, vast bay windows with working shutters and beautiful scroll corbels.
The detached one-bedroom gate lodge has been utilised as a successful short-term holiday let, with an approved council licence currently in place.
