The property

Closing date set for Thursday 4th February 2021 at 12 noon. With an enviable location in Corstorphine, this exclusive detached villa boasts a sprawling floorplan that covers 2,917 square feet. Spread over two levels, the extended property enjoys four bedrooms, multiple reception rooms, a home office, landscaped wraparound gardens, and extensive parking options. It is a very impressive family home in a prime location, close to local amenities and with a swift commute to the city centre. Inside, the generous interiors are decorated in a traditional style that suits this type of property, although new owners may wish to modernise. The gated home has outstanding kerb appeal, with the front door opening to a handy porch with built-in storage and then into a broad reception hall, housing a handy WC cloakroom. The living room is to the rear. The first of many reception areas, this generous space is ideal for everyday use, whether relaxing or socialising. It has an ornate fireplace for the room’s arrangement and is flooded with natural light from a canted bay window. Plus, glazed doors open into a charming sunroom for enjoying the garden whatever the weather. The formal dining room neighbours the living area, mirroring its footprint, along with a canted bay window and a lavish feature fireplace. It is a grand setting for dinner parties and special occasions. A separate family room/dining area provides another congenial reception space that is ideal for casual meals together and for unwinding. The breakfasting kitchen is conveniently next door, offering two pantry-style cupboards and access to the front garden. It comes well-appointed with base and wall-mounted cabinets and ample worktop space, housing an integrated electric hob, oven, and fridge-freezer, a concealed extractor, and an undercounter washing machine, and dishwasher. Completing the ground floor is a good-size home office that is secluded for added peace and quiet. From the hall, a naturally-lit staircase curves up to the landing which houses storage and connects to four bedrooms. The three main bedrooms (two with dual-aspect windows) offer very generous footprints for a king-size bed and various furnishings, further supplemented by ample built-in wardrobes and cupboards. The fourth bedroom is a large single. A bright bathroom with a three-piece suite completes the home. Gas central heating ensures comfort and efficiency all year round. Outside, the home is accompanied by a beautiful wraparound garden that is landscaped with a sprawling manicured lawn and established hedgerows for privacy. This delightful space is perfect for the family and for alfresco entertaining. Extensive parking is provided by a gated driveway and a tandem garage. There are also two large stores beside the garage.
