Spectacular, fully renovated and extended coastal cottage.
The spectacular White Cottage, whilst unassuming from the front, has recently undergone a remarkable and thoughtful renovation and extension programme. The current owners have transformed the cottage into an exceptional coastal home, with a high specification of finish throughout, and an internal area of about 1,386 sq.ft.
Renovation works included a full renewal of the electrics and plumbing, including a new boiler and underfloor heating throughout. The roof has also been replaced, with energy-efficient and long-lasting NorDan windows installed. The layout has been extended and reconfigured to create a superb open-plan kitchen / dining / sitting / family area at the heart of the house.
The kitchen by German company Häcker, features a large central island with an integrated Cople induction hob. The worktops are silestone by Cosentino, and there is a breakfast bar set at the window looking down the beach. Other appliances include Hotpoint oven and combi oven, and Bosch dishwasher. The sink is fitted with an a Blanco boiling tap and waste disposal unit, and a door leads out to the garden. The adjacent family area also benefits from stunning views and a sliding patio door leading outside. The dining space is generous, and sits between the family area and the sitting room with its new fireplace.
The principal bedroom has a large window looking down the beach towards Elie, and a further window with views over the front garden and across the Firth of Forth. It has an en suite bathroom and a dressing area with fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom sits off a small corridor beyond the dining / sitting room. It has an adjacent shower room. Both bath / shower rooms feature Duravit fittings and Grohe shower and tap fittings. From the corridor there is a hatch with Ramsay ladder to access the loft space above. Immediately beside the front door is a utility room with excellent storage and plumbing for appliances.
The garden overlooks the beach and offers incredible panoramic views. Stone steps from the cottage lead down to a paved terrace at the top of the garden. There is a small storage shed here. The garden is fully enclosed by stone walls and flanked on either side by stocked flower beds. There is external lighting, and power supply socket. A further paved terrace immediately overlooking the beach. Next to this terrace, a hatch opens up to stone steps leading down to a cellar / garden store.
