The property

This extensive detached house forms part of a sought-after modern development in Balerno, with five bedrooms, two reception rooms, a desirable open-plan kitchen/dining/family room, three bathrooms (plus a WC), and a study, all enhanced by beautifully presented interiors and contemporary fixtures and fittings.

The home’s front door opens into an entrance porch flowing through to a welcoming hallway (with a WC), with the latter accompanied by built-in storage. Double doors on your right open into a living room, where the tasteful interiors are introduced with neutral décor, a contemporary accent wall, and a plush fitted carpet. A cross the hall, you will find what is sure to be the heart of this family home: an open-plan kitchen, dining, and family room. Occupying a generous footprint, the room offers ample space for comfortable lounge seating, set next to fabulous bi-folding doors opening onto the rear garden – ideal for alfresco entertaining during the warmer months! The kitchen is fitted with a wealth of modern wood-styled cabinetry and spacious worktops. A central breakfasting island with an attached fitted dining table offer the perfect space for family meals, morning coffee, and socialising while cooking.
