The property, 65 High Street, is a B-listed townhouse originally built for the Earl Of Haddington back in the early 1800s, and has plenty of charm and character throughout.

With accommodation extending over four floors, including a converted basement and conservatory extension to the rear, the layout and arrangement of the interior is such that it could lend itself to many different uses – utilised by the current vendor as a two-bedroom property, clearly the accommodation could be used differently to provide up to four bedrooms if required.
