Real Estate Friday

Here's a cute little home for you to lust over. It is a small home with 14 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms located on about 500 acres. The cottage was built between 1699 and 1728.

Yester Estate lies in an outstandingly accessible location close to the East Lothian coast. The area is renowned for being one of the most highly sought after addresses in Scotland, with the edge of Edinburgh lying within 16 miles, and the city centre just over 20 miles away.

While Yester enjoys a rural location, its situation is excellent for the commuter. Edinburgh is less than 25 miles away, and offers all the cultural, shopping, leisure and educational opportunities expected of Scotland's capital, coupled with one of the most inspiring cityscapes in Western Europe. The A1 provides access into the city from Haddington, and there are railway stations at Drem and Longniddry with regular services into Edinburgh Waverley. Edinburgh Airport (30 miles) has an increasing choice of domestic, European and international flights.

The area provides an excellent quality of life and a variety of recreational activities. East Lothian is home to 18 golf courses, including the championship links at Muirfield. Gifford boasts two courses, Castle Park and Gifford Golf Club. The Lammermuir Hills have wonderful walking and cycling, whilst there is excellent sailing on the Firth of Forth.

Sorry, the asking price is not listed but if you are interested let us know and we will give you the contact information.

I so would not want to clean six bathrooms. It makes me tired just thinking about it. I don't think Sgt Steam could last too long with all of that work to do.

I think if you could afford to live there, you wouldn't have to worry about cleaning it; you would have a butler and an entire staff that would run the place. You would just sit and sip tea and say, "Charles, please bring the car."
