On the lower level, there are two wine cellars, one of which is accessible from outside. A sauna, a gym and a home study as well as a study/library.
There is a detached lodge cottage near the beginning of the drive. This charming property is in need of renovation and consists of an open plan living/dining room, kitchen, two double bedrooms and a bathroom.
Craigesk House is approached via electric gates and a private drive, via the lodge cottage. A gravelled area leads to parking to the front and side of the house. The garden and grounds extend to approximately 1.8 acres and provide a wonderful setting for the house. The river and the railway viaduct are the focal points of the garden and create a unique and dramatic backdrop. In addition to the tennis court, there are extensive lawn areas, mature shrubs and trees. To the side and rear of the house, there are terraces with tranquil settings over the river.
Craigesk House is situated in a magnificent position above the River South Esk in Midlothian, 1.4 miles south of Eskbank and 2.3 miles south of Lasswade. Central Edinburgh is approximately 8 miles to the north.
Both Eskbank and Lasswade have a good selection of everyday amenities, while more extensive services and shops can be found in Dalkeith or at Straiton Retail Park with stores including M&S, Sainsbury's, and Ikea. There is a large Tesco at Eskbank, just off the A7.
Edinburgh provides further shopping and entertainment opportunities, as well as several excellent private schools. The property is in the catchment for Newtongrange Primary School and Newbattle High School.
Regular train services run into Edinburgh from Eskbank and Newtongrange. Both stations are 1 mile from the house. Edinburgh airport is accessible via the by-pass and has an expanding network to many UK and international destinations, including North America and The Middle East.

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
