3 bed semi-detached house for sale in Willowbrae

Property highlight: Architecturally redesigned three-bedroom semi-detached home.

Positioned in the popular residential area of Willowbrae, just moments from Holyrood Park and a short walk from Portobello Beach, this architecturally redesigned three-bedroom semi-detached home has been comprehensively refurbished to an exceptional standard in 2023 by its architect-owner. The property now offers a refined blend of modern design, quality finishes, and carefully considered living spaces. The ground floor has been opened up to create an elegant flow between the sitting room, dining area, and kitchen — perfect for contemporary family life and entertaining. The stunning Rotpunkt kitchen, crafted in Germany, features sleek Silestone worktops and premium Siemens appliances, with direct access leading out to the private rear garden, ideal for al fresco dining or relaxing outdoors. Spanish Peronda tiling runs cohesively through much of the property lending a clean and stylish aesthetic. The family bathroom has been fitted with contemporary sanitaryware by Acquabella, known for its modern European design. Designer fixtures, including Buster + Punch switches and sockets, add a subtle layer of sophistication across the interior. New triple-glazed aluminium windows have been installed in the kitchen and bathroom areas, significantly improving energy efficiency and sound insulation. For added security and convenience, both the house and the double garage are fully alarmed, with the system easily controlled via a smartphone app. Externally, the home benefits from a private driveway and a spacious double garage — rarely available in the area — along with landscaped front and rear gardens. A standout feature of the property is the veranda to the side of the house — designed more as a balcony space, it provides an attractive and sheltered outdoor area that overlooks the garden and offers a quiet retreat, separate from the main access points of the home.
