A rare opportunity to purchase a magnificent Edwardian Arts and Crafts house, which has stunning period features. The Arts and Crafts Movement promoted the appreciation for the handmade in retaliation to the mass production in the Victorian era, which is evident throughout this wonderful family home. Characteristics of the movement stand out from the onset which include features like the covered porch with timber frame, mock-Tudor timbers to gables, stained glass, bay windows and casement crafted timber windows with inset arches. Internally the period features include a fabulous inglenook fireplace with banquette seating to each side of the hearth, crafted design balusters, with the real Nouveau style organic designs coming through on the brass doorplates and the cast iron fireplaces. This stunning home has been sympathetically upgraded without losing any of its charm to include electric heating, multi-fuel stove in the cosy breakfast room overlooking the rear garden, fitted utility room, office space and has some double-glazed units to the rear. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate this distinctive property. LOCATION The property is set on the edge of the stunning coastal village of Coldingham on the glorious rural south-east coast of Scotland, which is known for its award-winning beach; Coldingham Bay which has stunning walks with the area being designated AONB (Area of Outstanding Beauty). A short walk along the coast lies the famous harbour village of St Abbs recently brought to the attention of the public again especially for Marvel fans, for its fictional twinning with New Asgard from the filming of The Avengers:Endgame. Beyond the harbour lies approx. 200 acres of St Abb's Head National Nature Reserve with its spectacular dramatic coastline. Within Coldingham's thriving community are excellent local amenities including a primary school, country pubs, post office/ cafe and shops. Eyemouth is approx. 6 miles away and offers further amenities as well as a modern high school. The A1 is approx. 3 miles away and this gives easy access north and south with Edinburgh only about 43 miles away. The train station at Reston opened on the East Coast Mainline in early 2022 and approx.3 miles away from Coldingham. Also, around 15 miles south takes you to Berwick-upon-Tweed which also has a Railway Station. Berwick offers a wide selection of restaurants, pubs, sporting activities, as well as a growing selection of shops with the new Meadow Loaning Retail Park which opened in September 2022. Coldingham village is popular with holiday makers which includes walkers, fishing enthusiasts and divers and would make an ideal location for a second home or family home.
