Property Description

A beautiful three-bedroom apartment within the spectacular Whittingehame House, offering a tranquil setting with wonderful views over the surrounding countryside and within commuting distance to Edinburgh.

Whittingehame House, built in 1817, is one of Scotland’s most important neo-classical country houses, celebrated not only for its architectural grandeur but also for its deep
connections to British political history - being the home of Arthur Balfour who was Prime Minister between 1902 - 1905. After the war, the house then served as a boys independent boarding school until its closure in1980, afterwhich the house was then converted into seven luxury residential apartments.

Combining rural tranquility with accessibility, the house is ideally positioned for those seeking to enjoy the delights of the countryside but within commuting distance to Edinburgh. The apartment not only makes a fabulous primary residence, offering the grandeur of a stately home without the expense of acquiring one, but it would also make an ideal secondary home - perfectly positioned close to main line train stations with low maintenance ‘lock-up-and-leave’ facilities.

Flat 6, located on the second floor, boasts lovely views and beautiful period features to include an ornate ceiling rose, foliate cornicing and sash and case astragal glazed windows.
