This East Lothian converted barn is one of the most popular properties on the market right now

This superbly restored barn has spectacular views towards the coast and has managed to retain a load of original features.

On the market for £635,000, this former Tower House in the conservation village of Whitekirk is nothing short of picturesque.

Located in the East Lothian countryside, one lucky homeowner can enjoy the incredible views of the coast to the east from the master bedroom.

The building was originally built in the 16th century with red sandstone and sits proudly on an elevated position overlooking the village.

Large patio doors lead onto a terrace. The garden wraps all around the house, making it a perfect place to enjoy the views and even plant a vegetable patch and entertain in the summer months.

The open plan interior mixes contemporary living space with ample original features.

The house has the original stone fireplace, and a cosy guest bedroom is tucked under a stone arched ceiling.

If that is not enough, the property boasts five bedrooms and a private driveway.

The estate agent Savills says: "The surrounding East Lothian countryside offers beautiful views to the Lammermuir Hills.

"The John Muir Country Park, a haven for wildlife, is only a short distance away and there are some wonderful walks nearby."
