4 Bed Terraced House For Sale

Standing proud in an otherwise traditional countryside setting, this 1970s Brutalist-inspired house is a tribute to an era of bold architectural vision. Largely retaining its authentic form this home has design at its core. With its heavy use of concrete, sharp angular lines, and exposed raw materials, the building boldly asserts itself against the softness of the surrounding countryside.

The building is made up of three households with number 11 nestled in the middle.There is a sweeping driveway that serves each household and practically a carport to the front complete with charging point and a storage unit ideal for bikes and for gardening equipment. 

Inside, the retro aesthetic is instantly on show with rich slatted wooden screening rising with the stairwell showing glimpses of the space above. On the first floor the expansive living area sits at the heart of the home with large unadorned windows allowing natural light to flood the space. The impressive fireplace is a real focal point of the curved room and yet is instantly rivalled by the views of the manicured gardens and countryside beyond. 

There is a separate room accessed directly off the living room, ideal as a home office or separate tv room. It is currently used as a yoga studio, however in the evenings the hidden bar behind the panelling comes to life.

The house is spread over three floors with 4 double bedrooms including the principal suite with dressing room and en-suite. 

The kitchen is a nostalgic space that has stood the test of time and proudly displays the iconic 1970’s style, complete with dumbwaiter that runs to the utility room on the ground floor.  

The adjacent dining area is equally steeped in period props such as a built in heated hostess unit, ideal for dinner parties and fabulous dining table made specifically for the space.

This home is a masterpiece of individuality, designed by Henry Wylie & Partners, a true time capsule where every detail speaks to the originality of its era. It is not just a house, but an embodiment of a vision, a place that has remained steadfast in its roots, allowing you to experience the 1970s in its purest, most unaltered form. A rare find for lovers of history, architecture, and design, this house offers a one-of-a-kind opportunity to own a piece of the past while celebrating the enduring power of Brutalist architecture.

The garden area is defined within the deeds of each property; however a shared understanding and a deep sense of community has meant that the three owners live harmoniously allowing them to delight in the grounds that surround their homes. 

Lugton Brae sits on the outskirts of Dalkeith and is marked by rolling hills, expansive fields, and lush woodlands, offering a natural retreat. The area is perfect for nature lovers, with nearby parks, nature reserves, and walking trails that wind through scenic landscapes.
