Inside the sprawling Midlothian mansion with games room and ornamental pond

A stunning B-listed family home in Dalkeith has been put on the market for offers over £1.235 million.

The Old Parsonage, on Lugton Brae in Dalkeith, is a seven bedroom home built over two floors. The property includes a games room, music room, and extensive gardens with an ornamental pond.

Within easy reach of Edinburgh, the home is set in almost an acre of garden grounds and has recently been restored.

Two of the bedrooms sit on the ground floor, alongside a music room and cloakroom. Upstairs, the principal bedroom has an ensuite bathroom attached - which sits on the same floor as five other bedrooms.

Two other shower rooms, as well as access to the attic, can be found on the first floor. Outside, a single timber garage and brick-built log store sits on the large garden.

The long driveway is matched with ‘well-established’ shrubbery and an ornamental pond with flower beds.

Describing the property, Rettie & Co said: "A bright, beautifully proportioned and entirely flexible accommodation extending 5868 square foot and retaining period features.

"Standing within approximately 0.9 of wonderful gardens grounds. Quietly tucked away in a charming semi-rural hamlet, adjoining a country park and surrounded by woodland and yet within easy commuting distance of Edinburgh city centre, with superb local amenities.

"Excellent storage as well as extensive off road parking.

"The house dates from the early 19th century, but was doubled in size in the mid-19th century to serve as the parsonage for St Mary's Episcopal Chapel."

The nearest train station is Eskbank, which sits 1.1 miles away. A variety of Lothian Buses run from Dalkeith into Edinburgh’s city centre.

The home was put on the market by Rettie & Co on August 25, and more information can be found here.
