Property highlight: Standalone, recently built, games room with bar.

Situated on a large corner plot, 16 Newmills Road is a beautifully presented four-bedroom detached family home. The property is peacefully located within a sought-after residential neighbourhood in the desirable village of Balerno on the outskirts of Edinburgh. Offered to the market in move-in condition, with the addition of a standalone garden room/games room and with potential for an extension, this superb home offers an exciting opportunity for buyers. The ground floor offers a flexible layout with a very well-proportioned sitting room that features a cosy wood-burning stove and a large picture window which brings in an abundance of natural light.

A contemporary family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. The property also benefits from a fully floored loft, offering excellent additional storage space. A standout feature is the separate, newly built games room with fully equipped bar. This flexible space could easily serve as a studio, home office or, thanks to its size at 38sqm, could be modified to form a self-contained annexe. It is surrounded by composite decking with a sunny, sheltered seating area. The exterior also includes a beautifully manicured front garden, two separate large lawns, double garage and a driveway for multiple vehicles equipped with an EV charger. Adding further convenience, a home gym with mat flooring and full length mirror, has been built into the garage. Gas central heating and double glazing have been fitted throughout.

Surrounded by lush woodlands, and with rivers and reservoirs on your doorstep, it is hard to believe that Edinburgh city centre is only seven miles away. The area caters for everyday needs with services including shops, restaurants, traditional pubs, a library, and the regular Balerno Farmers' Market offers local, fresh produce.
