Property Description
An attractive period 5/6-bedroom family home situated within the delightful village of Pencaitland - only 8 miles from the Edinburgh City By Pass.
As its name suggests, The Old Farmhouse is the former farmhouse to Wester Pencaitland Farm – the site likely dating back to the era when East Lothian was a leader in Scottish farming, with many steadings dating from the 17th and 18th centuries.
The original part of the house, of pretty sandstone construction, showcases elements of this history with attractive period features to include ornate cornicing, moulded ceiling roses, astragal glazed windows and slightly lower door frames that add an element of charm.
The house has subsequently been extended in later years and now offers a fantastic family home with flexible accommodation across two floors, as well as a beautiful rear garden that incorporates a large garden studio that could easily be adapted into a spacious home office.
