The property

Centrally, yet quietly positioned within the heart of Juniper Green, is 20 Baberton Avenue, a charming, stone built terraced house. Dating back to circa 1900, this quaint property would make a wonderful first home for those looking to get onto the property ladder or the perfect downsizing opportunity. The living/dining room is accessed from a small entrance hall, and is a bright space which benefits from beautiful timber flooring and a working gas fire. To the rear of the property, there is a lovely fitted kitchen with cream, shaker style cabinets and space for casual dining. It also offers direct access onto the garden deck. Upstairs, there is a good size double bedroom also with timber flooring, a built-in storage cupboard and plenty room for large furniture. A loft hatch with ramsay ladder provides access to the partially floored loft space. There is a well-designed modern shower room with an overhead velux window which provides light and ventilation. There is a neatly kept, fully enclosed rear garden with a lawn, small timber hut and a deck that accommodates outdoor furniture. A lane with shared access rights, to the right hand side, provides a route around to the front of the property. The property is served by gas central heating and is double glazed throughout. Free, on street parking is available outside the property. Location Nestled on the banks of the picturesque Water of Leith at the foot of the Pentland Hills, the village of Juniper Green offers idyllic country living just five miles from the city centre.

It is the perfect base from which to enjoy outdoor pursuits including walking and cycling along the Water of Leith, hiking and horse riding in the Pentland Hills or dry-slope skiing at the Midlothian Snowsports Centre.
