The property

McEwan Fraser is delighted to present this traditional five-bedroom double-upper villa to the market. The property enjoys a private ground floor entrance, a large southwest-facing private garden, and 250m² (2690 sqft) of accommodation over the first and second floors. Internal accommodation includes a master bedroom with en-suite shower room, four further bedrooms, two bathrooms, two public rooms, a dining kitchen, and a sunroom/study. This traditional villa enjoys a prime location with access to a huge range of local amenities and would make a magnificent family home. The private main door opens to a staircase that leads to the first-floor reception hall. This provides access to the spacious living room, which is brightly lit by a bay window that has a magnificent view of Arthur’s Seat. Many original period features have been retained including an intricate cornice and high skirting boards. A feature fireplace creates a natural focal point for the room but the sheer space on offer will give a new owner endless flexibility to create their ideal entertaining space. To one side of the living room there is a small adjoining sunroom with stained glass windows that is currently used as a study. A superb dining room sits adjacent to the living room. Offering plenty of space for a large dining table and a full array of supporting furniture, the dining room has also retained many original features including a beautiful original fireplace, intricate cornice, and ceiling rose. This room could easily be utilised as an immense sixth double bedroom if desired. The dining kitchen offers a good range of based and wall-mounted units that include an integrated hob and a double oven. Space is provided for a range of freestanding appliances and there is ample space for a dining table in the centre of the room. Accommodation on this level is completed by a generous double bedroom and a bathroom. The bedroom is bright, spacious, and enhanced by further traditional features including a fireplace. The bathroom boasts a contemporary finish and includes partial tiling, a jacuzzi bath and a separate shower. A traditional staircase leads to a broad upper landing which is bathed in natural light from a pyramid-style skylight. The landing gives access to four large double bedrooms and a further bathroom. Bedroom one is the obvious master and enjoys plenty of space for a full suite of bedroom furniture. It also benefits from access to a stylish en-suite shower room. All bedrooms are extensive doubles and have retained their fireplaces. The bathroom on this level is partially tiled and boasts a three-piece white suite with a shower over the bath. Externally, the property benefits from a southwest-facing private garden that is laid to lawn and framed by mature shrubs and trees. There is an extensive patio area for entertaining. In addition, Kilmaurs Road is a Priority Parking Area (B7), offering convenient controlled parking (9.30 am – 11 am) for which residents’ permits are available.
