The property
This handsome, traditional mid-terraced house in the sought-after Blackhall area of the city perfectly blends period charm with modern décor, fixtures and fittings and boasts far-reaching views encompassing Edinburgh Castle and Arthur’s Seat. The home enjoys three bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen/dining room, a bathroom, and a WC, plus gardens and unrestricted on-street parking. The front door opens into a vestibule, where a door with a stained-glass detail leads to a hall with built-in storage and a WC. To the left of the hall lies a living room, fronted by a bay window and occupying a generous footprint which allows for various configurations of furniture. The room is decorated in pared-back tones enhanced by cornicing, a carpet, and a fireplace flanked by an Edinburgh press. An additional feature of the room is a large fitted bookcase. The neighbouring open-plan kitchen and dining room offers a fabulous space for everyday family life and entertaining, with a large area designated for seated dining, providing plenty of room for a large table and chairs and additional furniture, as well as garden access. The room also features a fireplace and a clothes pulley. In the adjoining kitchen, you will find timber Neptune cabinets, solid worktops, a double Belfast sink, and metro-tiled splashbacks. A range-style cooker is neatly housed within the cabinets, a washing machine is integrated, and space is provided for a freestanding fridge/freezer. On the first floor, a landing affords access to three double bedrooms and a bathroom. The bedrooms are all tastefully decorated and have original fireplaces, and two are fitted with handsome wood flooring, with the third carpeted for comfort. The largest bedroom boasts fantastic views encompassing Arthur’s Seat and Edinburgh Castle. Finally, the stylishly tiled bathroom comprises a bath with an overhead shower, a basin, and a WC. Gas central heating and double glazing ensure year-round comfort and efficiency. Externally, the home enjoys a leafy front garden and a favourably southeast-facing rear garden, with the latter featuring a neatly maintained lawn, a gravelled area, and a wealth of leafy shrubbery and hedges, as well as a shed. Unrestricted on-street parking is available on Forthview Terrace. Extras: all fitted floor coverings, window coverings, and light fittings will be included in the sale.
