Helen ChristieThe Catesby showhome at Cruden Homes’ Meadowside development is a superb four-bedroom home that’s been carefully designed for its picturesque location in the pretty East Lothian village of Aberlady.
Finished with an interior specification commensurate with the top-end appeal of the development, this new home is crafted to accommodate the needs and desires of modern family living.
Hazel Davies, sales and marketing director of Cruden Homes, says: “Meadowside offers families a range of beautiful homes at an affordable price in one of the most attractive locations in East Lothian. There is a real community feel in the village making it a really lovely place to raise a family. And with plenty of activities on offer including golf, beach walks and country cycle lanes, there’s lots on offer to keep families entertained.”
She adds: “Homes are also within easy walking distance of the primary school and other village amenities, and the development also offers an easy commute via the A1 to Edinburgh, or by train from nearby North Berwick or Longniddry stations.”
Styled by top interior design specialists, blocc interiors, Suzanne Thomas, the firm’s creative sales director, says: ‘We designed the new Catesby show home at Meadowside with professional couples and young families in mind.
“The soft nordic and scandi look of the show home delivers a light and airy feel. This has been achieved by using an eclectic mix of different furniture styles and finishes, such natural and painted woods, combined with metals, different textured and patterned wallpapers and fabrics. Feature wall coverings help create interest throughout the property.”
Living room: “Geometrics feature in the living room combined with natural tones through the furniture and artwork. The upholstered corner sofa adds a homely feel to the room where families can relax together.”
Dining/Kitchen: “The bright and spacious dining kitchen is well equipped, offering a large space for informal entertaining. Pops of warm coral are brought in through the use of coloured metal chairs and on the walls of the dining area. Direct access to the garden extends the available space for entertaining.”
Study: “The study positioned to the front of the house and is versatile enough to be used either as a work space or as a separate formal dining room. The light and natural scandi feel is continued in this room with soft colours creating a calming space."
Master bedroom: “The master bedroom enjoys a luxurious and rich feel through the boutique hotel style décor, featuring low hanging pendant light and a richer warm coral colour throughout.”
Second bedroom: “The second bedroom features a natural and relaxed feel through the teal and white colour scheme, capturing the essence of the local setting through the use of the soft colour palette and natural materials, including the shutter style headboard and rattan bedside tables.”
Third bedroom: “The third bedroom again features geometrics through the soft furnishings with the addition of a bicycle theme through the use of feature wallpaper and fun wall hung metal bicycles. The mix of tones and finishes make it a perfect teenage bedroom.”
Fourth bedroom: “The fourth bedroom is playful with circus theme wallpaper and bedding used within a beautifully designed white canopy tent-style bed frame. The coral theme continues in this room along with other pops of colour in the bright jam jar style pendant ceiling lights.”
All properties at Meadowside have been designed exclusively for their picturesque location, each with an interior specification commensurate with the top-end appeal of the development. The spec includes designer German kitchens by Leicht featuring quality integrated appliances by Siemens.
