Stunning cottage home set privately with its own small roadside garden in the heart of 18th century Inveresk. The home is spacious & entered via its own private front door. Large living eating and dinning room & separate kitchen, the space is ample for 3 adults. 1 main bedroom with a supering bed & on upper floor there is single bed over looking sitting area. Edinburgh city centre easily reached. The internationally renowned garden at Shepherd House is accessible for guests.
