The property

Enjoying an elevated position on an established residential street in popular Gilmerton, this traditional two-bedroom end-terrace house offers a fantastic family home with added potential for further development(subject to relevant planning permission). A short flight of steps through the neat front garden leads up to the front door, which opens into a good-sized entrance hall. The well-proportioned living room is bathed in light from large picture windows and easily accommodates a two-piece suite. The living room flows into the contemporary dining kitchen, which benefits from a side door and dual windows overlooking the west-facing rear garden. The immaculate fitted kitchen provides a wealth of storage, including two glazed display cabinets, and is supplemented by three generous built-in cupboards, including a walk-in pantry as well as integrated and freestanding appliances. The first floor accommodates two well-proportioned double bedrooms (one with twin built-in wardrobes); a bright three-piece bathroom; a useful linen cupboard and a boiler/airing cupboard. The house boasts excellent storage throughout, plus an external coal store, sas central heating and UPVC single glazing. Owing to its prime end-of-terrace position, the house enjoys lovely gardens to the front, side and rear. The large, west-facing rear garden is fully-enclosed and comprises two patio areas, a well-tended drying green and a selection of mature shrubs. The house benefits from unrestricted on-street parking, with potential to convert the front garden into a single driveway as neighbouring properties have done (subject to relevant planning permission). The popular residential suburb of Gilmerton lies approximately 4 miles to the South of Edinburgh City Centre and offers an excellent range of local amenities. Once a mining village, the thriving community is well served by independent shops with further shopping facilities available at nearby Cameron Toll Shopping Centre and Straiton Retail Park £140,000.
