General Description
The historic seaside and fishing town of Dunbar has an
excellent shopping centre, schooling for all ages and a
wide range of leisure and recreational facilities. These
include a modern leisure pool, sports complex, two
fine links golf courses and numerous sports and social
clubs.The town is surrounded by typically beautiful East
Lothian countryside and there are many interesting
coastal walks including those in the John Muir Country
Park. The town is within comfortable commuting
distance of Edinburgh by car or train from the local
station. The city bypass also provides rapid access to
the airport and motorway network leading north and
west. Colvin Street enjoys a quite private position very
close to the shore and harbour and within walking
distance of most local amenities.
This traditional semi detached house while requiring
full modernisation, retains many of its original features
such as plain and decorative corniced ceilings, panelled
doors, working shutters and original oak and tiled
fireplaces and has the potential for conversion into two
separate homes (with the usual planning permissions
of course) or be transformed into a sizeable and
comfortable family home.
In brief the accommodation comprises on the ground
floor entrance hall, sitting room, dining room,
bedroom1 and kitchen/living room, while upstairs there
are two further bedrooms, living room/bedroom 4,
small kitchen with “scullery” off, and bathroom. It also
includes gas central heating and there is a small
enclosed south facing garden to the back of the
property.
As mentioned above, the scope of improvement
extends to both the exterior and interior of the house
and includes such major work as a completely new
roof, work to the chimneys, re-pointing, plastering,
rewiring and plumbing, damp proofing, timber
treatment and all new windows, so this would not be
suitable for those seeking cosmetic or minor repairs.
This is a sizeable property - with great potential - set
at a realistic fixed price which is reflective of the work
required. In addition, the ground to the rear may be
purchased through separate negotiation with East
Lothian Council.
