Inside bargain Scottish garden cottage for sale cheaper than Edinburgh flat
A charming traditional Scottish cottage in a stunning rural setting has just gone up for sale for a bargain price.
Wester Gauldwell Cottage is a two-bedroom home near the idyllic village of Craigellachie, offering spectacular views out over the Moray countryside. It is currently available to buy for offers over £260,000.
The cost of the cottage is lower than many Edinburgh flats according to Rightmove. Looking at the property site, recent homes to come up for sale in the Scottish capital include a two-bedroom apartment in the West End for £800,000 and a two-bedroom Morningside flat for £450,000.
Stepping inside Wester Gauldwell Cottage, the home opens with a light and bright conservatory. This leads through into a delightful sitting room that could easily be converted into a third bedroom.
Elsewhere, the dual-aspect dining kitchen also has doors through to the conservatory. Whether entertaining or sitting with a good book, it is the perfect spot to relax and take in the wonderful views to the east over Speyside.
Completing the ground-floor accommodation is the family bathroom with a Jacuzzi-style bath. Moving upstairs, the two scenic bedrooms and an additional box room can be found.
Outside, there is a private and well-maintained garden with plenty of space to lie out on and soak in some summer sun. There is also a patio, as well as two useful timbersheds.
Additional information and photos can be found on the Galbraith website.
