Description

McEwan Fraser Legal is delighted to present this impressive eight-bedroom country home at Loanstone House, Loanstone, EH26, set within approximately 1.5 acres of beautifully maintained mature gardens. The property offers substantial internal accommodation, charming period character, and a peaceful semi-rural setting while remaining within easy reach of Edinburgh and surrounding Midlothian amenities. The home is presented in excellent condition and enjoys wonderful outlooks across its private grounds, creating a tranquil lifestyle property that balances space, character, and practicality for modern family living.

Inside, the property comprises a large drawing room with a marble open fireplace, creating a warm and inviting main reception space. The spacious kitchen features an AGA, integrated dishwasher, fridge, fan oven, and generous preparation space, making it ideal for family life and entertaining. The home features a laundry room and plenty of practical storage spaces throughout, along with a convenient ground-floor WC. There is a further dining room with a press cupboard, and a cosy sitting room with a multi-fuel log burner and secondary glazing, which would be perfect as an additional living area or relaxing retreat. The dedicated office, ideal for home working or study, leads to the bright conservatory overlooking the gardens, offering a peaceful spot to enjoy the surrounding greenery year-round.

The two upper floors of the house feature eight spacious, well-proportioned bedrooms, including a notably large master bedroom, offering great versatility for big families, guests, or multi-generational living. There are also two bathrooms, one being a four-piece family suite. Further benefits include secondary glazing in key areas, a biomass boiler heating system, and charming traditional features that complement the character of the property.

Externally, the home truly excels. The grounds extend to approximately 1.5 acres of mature landscaped gardens, offering a mixture of lawns, established trees, and private outdoor spaces. These grounds provide a fantastic setting for outdoor entertaining, gardening enthusiasts, or simply enjoying the peaceful countryside surroundings.

The property also benefits from the use of solar panels, making electricity costs for a property of this size particularly affordable.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial country home with extensive grounds in a highly desirable location, combining rural charm with convenient access to local amenities, schools, and transport links to Edinburgh.
