The property

Occupying a generous plot within an established residential area of Penicuik, this four-bedroom two-bathroom semi-detached house would be perfect for families seeking a quiet retreat yet still within easy reach of local amenities, the rest of the county and the capital. The front door opens into a welcoming hall, which is also accessible from the garage. On your left, you step into a south-facing living room. Here, the tone for the accommodation is set with pastel-hued décor accompanied by feature wallpaper, classic coving, a handsome wood floor and warmly-toned wood accents. A striking fireplace with a living-flame fire inset creates a warm atmosphere and a cosy focal point around which a selection of lounge furniture can be arranged. The kitchen is conveniently accessed from the living room and is well-appointed with a selection of stylish cabinets and a wealth of workspace, as well as integrated appliances including an electric oven and grill, a combination microwave, a gas hob with a splashback panel and a statement extractor hood, a fridge/freezer, and a dishwasher. A utility room within the garage houses further fitted cabinetry and offers space for laundry appliances. A breakfast bar creates the ideal space for morning coffee. From the kitchen, a door leads into a versatile conservatory, which is currently set up as a dining room and features French doors opening onto the rear garden. Completing the ground-floor accommodation is a shower room, comprising a corner shower enclosure, a basin set into storage, a toilet, and a chrome towel radiator. On the first floor, a landing with storage and loft access leads to four double bedrooms and a bathroom. The two front-facing rooms, including the master, boast a south-facing aspect, whilst the rear-facing rooms enjoy wonderful far-reaching views encompassing the rugged Pentland Hills. All but one of the bedrooms also incorporate built-in storage. Finally, the stylish, contemporary bathroom comes complete with a bathtub with an overhead shower and a glazed screen, a WC-suite set into storage, a chrome towel warmer, and an illuminated mirror.
