DESCRIPTION
Druminane House comprises an outstanding single storey country property with split levels extending to circa 250 sqm, which originally comprised two Edwardian cottages which were linked together and later extended circa 2012 with extensions to the south and north.

The various upgrades of the house have been designed to maximise the connection of the living accommodation to the various south facing terraces which enjoy the most outstanding views over unspoilt countryside with the River Forth and the Lothian hills visible on a clear day.

Internally the house is full of charm and character and it is in excellent decorative condition and well maintained. The house is approached from the rear gravel sweep by a feature arched door, which leads through to a large vestibule and into a reception hall with hardwood flooring. Steps lead down to the kitchen/dining room and a door leads off to a lovely sitting room with wood panelled walls to dado height, a log burning stove, fitted bookshelves and part glazed double doors leading out to a garden terrace. A door leads from the sitting room through to a large study/reception room, which has windows on two sides, recessed bookshelves, hardwood flooring and log burning stove and part glazed double doors leading out to an elevated garden terrace. Doors lead off the study /reception room to a bedroom, shower room, side entrance porch (with laundry room off) and a principal bedroom with dressing area and en suite bathroom.

The kitchen/dining room is situated on the east side of the house, at a slightly lower level, and is a bright and spacious room, which benefits from an Aga, central island and corner open fireplace.
