EPC Rating F = Savills Wemyss House 8 Wemyss Place Edinburgh EH3 6DH 0131 247 3700 [email protected] SITUATION Situated on the Golf Coast of East Lothian, North Berwick has been consistently voted one of the best places to live in both Scotland and the wider UK. It is a highly regarded coastal town, overlooking the Firth of Forth with spectacular views over to Fife and the Bass Rock. The town boasts magnificent sandy beaches, excellent golf courses and water sports facilities, all based around the vibrant town centre which has a good range of local shopping, restaurants, services and schools. West Bay Road is one of the most prominent and exclusive locations in North Berwick, due to its un- spoilt views over West Links’ 18th green, North Berwick Harbour and the Bass Rock. Within easy reach of the main A198 towards Edinburgh, the A1 and the railway station, the property is superbly located for commuters. The local secondary school, North Berwick High School, is a great draw to the town and there are good primary schools. All the fee paying schools in Edinburgh are within easy reach. DESCRIPTION The main door principal flat is set over the first and second floors of two adjacent buildings. 18 West Bay Road is a deceptively spacious and accommodating property. There are spectacular views of West Links, Bass Rock, North Berwick Harbour and Fife Coastline from the drawing room, breakfast room, two top floor bedrooms and master bedroom. The main door entrance opens up onto a flight of stairs that leads up to the large first floor landing; there is a stair lift currently fitted to the stairs. To the immediate left of the landing is a dining room which is lit by a large window overlooking the front garden. Adjacent to the dining room is a shower room with WC, basin and walk in shower. The kitchen with breakfast area is located in the north west corner of the property and features fitted base and wall units, gas hob and arch through to the breakfast area. There are two store cupboards, one of which currently houses the fridge/ freezer. A side door provides access to the rear garden. From the hall, there is a generously proportioned drawing room which features a large bay window, fireplace with coal effect gas fire and ornate cornicing. The first floor also comprises a study room with views over the front garden, a sitting room with an ornate wood mantle and marble hearth, and double bedroom with integrated wardrobe. There is a bathroom off the hall, and a staircase leading to the second floor where two further double bedrooms are located. One bedroom features built in wardrobes, an en suite with WC and basin, and a large dormer window overlooking the stunning Fife coastline. The second bedroom provides access to an attic room that could be converted into an en suite, subject to planning consent. OUTSIDE The property’s main entrance is approached from the street, through the private front garden which features a paved pathway and patio area, hedges to provide privacy and well maintained flowerbeds. The rear garden is accessed from a side door in the kitchen, with covered steps leading down to the paved patio area and garden bordered by potted plants and flowerbeds. There are two garden stores, one being a useful and secure lock up for golf clubs. There is a back gate that leads out onto Pointgarry Road, as well as a double garage with recently fitted electric doors. DIRECTIONS Approaching North Berwick from Edinburgh, eastbound on the A198, continue straight on through the first set of traffic lights, go past the Nether Abbey Hotel and take the second turning on the left onto Links Road. Continue towards the golf course and turn right onto West Bay Road.

  • Galloway's Pier
    Accessible Landings Galloway’s Pier, North Berwick, Reconfiguration Report This document is part of iTransfer, a North Sea Region Interreg programme project, which is funded by the European Regional Development Fund. iTransfer (Innovative Transport Solutions for Fjords, Estuaries and Rivers) aims to make ferry transport more freely accessible and sustainable, and encourage more people to travel by water. In areas in the North Sea Region (NSR) there are opportunities to replace existing vehicle routes with passenger ferries as a viable alternative. Travelling by ferry is more sustainable, easier and quicker. It can also provide lifeline services to remote communities.

The project will also improve access by reducing the gradient of the pier from the back of the harbour, widening the path and installing a handrail. The activity is led by iTransfer partner, SEStran, working with their project sub-partner, East Lothian Council. Galloway’s pier is small and the entrance into the harbour is narrow. The pier currently has a limited berthing capacity, consisting of steep concrete stairs which are exposed to the sea during high-tide and it is difficult to access.

    Abbey Church News September, 2017 Abbey Church, 116 High Street, (at Church Road) North Berwick Church Office: 01620 892800 [email protected] Minister: Rev. Dr David J Graham, BSc, BD Pastoral Assistant: Bob Kane All Sunday Morning Worship at 10.30am (Until 11.30) . Come along. All welcome . Dear Friends, Here is the letter I sent to Joyce Strachan last month: Dear Joyce, On behalf of the Kirk Sessions and congregations of Dirleton and Abbey, I’d like to thank you very sincerely for your sterling work in the Church Office over the past 18 years. You have been a stalwart and indispensable part of what we do as churches (and a very hard act for anyone to follow!). When I came as Minister there was a vacancy in the Office. It wasn’t difficult to fill it, because you came very well recommended. You quickly fitted into the work required, mastered the changing technology and machinery, and even a move from the manse ‘annex’ (a rather grand word for the cold and draughty out-house it really was!) to the Church premises. All your work for the church has been done unstintingly, going the ‘second mile’. At times that was because our equipment let you down! But you always made sure that the work was done, even last week when voluntary ‘overtime’ was given to make sure the newsletters and intimations were ready on time. In addition to your work for the church, you’ve given your time and skills to help and support local community groups and work overseas, both in the Office and outwith office hours.

  • North Berwick News
    THE NEWSLETTER OF NORTH BERWICK COMMUNITY COUNCIL ISSUE 56 JULY 2016 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ NORTH BERWICK NEWS SPRUCED UP FOR SUMMER The third ornamental tree seat commissioned by North Berwick in Bloom is now in place in Quality Street. The completion of the seat coincided with the Group’s decision to repaint the existing seats and planters in the area and to refurbish the lighthouse which has been given a makeover. The volunteers were delighted to win a gold medal again in the pallet garden section of Gardening Scotland and proud to have advised Law Primary School and North Berwick High School on their innovative entries, both of which were also awarded gold. See the pallets outside the Abbey Church. The High school pop up garden is being rebuilt at the school. The hanging baskets and containers have been planted ready to welcome our visitors for the season and we are hoping that this year we can persuade the local pigeons to make their homes other than in the hanging baskets. Judges from Beautiful Scotland will be visiting on Tuesday 9th August. If you would like to help to keep North Berwick looking beautiful, come and join our friendly work group at 9.00 am on Mondays in the Lodge grounds. Can’t garden but want to help, then enter our summer quiz celebrating 50 years of Beautiful Scotland on sale in the usual outlets, or ring Rosie Oberlander Group Chair. 895046 Ornamental tree seat outside old Council Offices Quality Street NEW COMMUNITY FUND North Berwick Golf Club (NBGC) has set up a new fund of up to £10k per annum to benefit projects contributing to the good of the local community.
