This 8 bedroom, 3 bathroom coastal mansion is presented in immaculate condition and sits within pristinely manicured, private grounds. AVAILABLE NOW, FURNISHED/UNFURNISED
This outstanding home seamlessly entwines timeless traditional elegance with contemporary, modern living, offering fine architectural detail both inside and out. The accommodation is arranged over three floors, with all principal rooms enjoying garden and coastal views. The grand entrance hallway immediately sets the tone, a welcoming space with timber panelling and a wood-burning stove. From here, two light-filled reception rooms with square bay windows provide the perfect space to both entertain and relax with panoramic views over the town and Firth of Forth.
A secondary hallway leads to a cosy family room with French doors opening onto the south-facing garden. At the heart of the home lies an open-plan kitchen and dining area, thoughtfully redesigned for modern family life. The kitchen features a large cook’s island with breakfast bar, generous workspace and casual dining area, with direct access to the side of the house and driveway. The first floor offers six beautifully presented bedrooms, including a principal suite with a square bay window, dressing room and private bathroom. Two additional bedrooms enjoy sea views, one linking to a nursery or dressing room. A family bathroom and separate WC complete this floor.
The top floor provides an excellent guest or teenage retreat, with two further bedrooms, a bathroom and ample storage. One of the bedrooms also includes a generous sitting area for added privacy and flexibility. A third room, which would make an excellent home office, study or library completes this floor.

Surrounded by mature, landscaped gardens, Windygates offers both privacy and space to enjoy its exceptional coastal outlook. To the front, a large driveway is framed by a well-stocked garden, while to the rear, a south-facing lawn and terrace provide the perfect spot for family relaxation or summer entertaining. Perfectly positioned within walking distance of North Berwick’s town centre and train station, Windygates enjoys both convenience and tranquillity. North Berwick has consistently been voted one of the best places to live in Scotland and the UK, offering a vibrant coastal lifestyle with sandy beaches, boutique shopping, acclaimed restaurants and top-rated schools. For leisure, the town is home to North Berwick West Links and The Glen, with Muirfield, The Renaissance Club, Archerfield and Gullane just a short drive away, placing this remarkable home at the heart of East Lothian’s famous “Golf Coast.” Additionally, the property is perfectly positioned for commuters and Edinburgh Waverley can be reached in just 30 minutes by train from North Berwick. The full striking elegance of Windygates can truly only be appreciated in person, it would be our pleasure to show you around.
