The property

Enjoying bright and spacious interiors, a south-facing garden, an integral garage and a private driveway, this appealing three-bedroom detached house is desirably situated in Balerno; a village nestled at the foot of the Pentland Hills, approximately 30 minutes' commute from Edinburgh city centre and conveniently close to the City Bypass. The house benefits from a quiet family-friendly setting, tucked away at the end of a cul-de-sac, with pleasant leafy surroundings. Welcoming you into the home is a practical porch, perfect for coats and muddy boots, leading into a comfortably-carpeted hall housing the handy features of a WC cloakroom and a capacious storage cupboard. Leading off the hall and stretching the full depth of the property is a convivial reception area with a bright, dual-aspect outlook and French doors opening onto the rear garden. This generous, carpeted room incorporates a seating area arranged around a living-flame fire with an elegant surround, and a sunny formal dining area positioned conveniently beside the kitchen entrance.

Upstairs, a bright landing (with built-in storage) leads to three carpeted bedrooms – a sunny master bedroom with double fitted wardrobes, a second double bedroom, and a good-sized single bedroom currently utilised as a home study. Completing the accommodation on offer is a contemporary bathroom replete with a WC-suite, set into excellent vanity storage, and a P-shaped bathtub with an overhead shower and a glazed screen.
