The property

Nestled beside Corstorphine Hill, with elevated, south-facing views towards the Pentland Hills, this four-bedroom semi- detached period house enjoys one of Edinburgh's most desirable suburban addresses, with a quiet leafy setting and excellent commuting links in and out of the capital. Behind its charming crafts-inspired exterior, the spacious property boasts multiple living areas and outstanding opportunities to update the versatile interiors into an exclusive contemporary home. Behind the front door, a vestibule leads into an entrance hall housing a handy WC cloakroom. At the end of the hall lies two south-facing reception rooms, both generously sized with incorporated storage and tranquil garden vistas. The living room is bay-fronted, whilst the versatile dining room is perfect for year-round entertaining, opening onto a seating terrace with scenic views. The dining room is also conveniently connected to the kitchen. Now in need of modernisation, the bright kitchen (currently equipped with fitted cabinetry and freestanding goods) promises a fantastic space to create a social dining kitchen to suit one's own tastes and requirements. Completing the ground floor is the principal bedroom incorporating built-in storage, a WC-suite, a bidet and a shower enclosure. The remaining three double bedrooms (two with built-in storage) and a bright, three-piece bathroom are located on the first floor, accessed from a sky-lit landing. The rear-facing bedrooms include one with a shower enclosure and another benefiting from the home's south-facing position and enviable far-reaching views. The property is electrically heated and includes useful cellar storage. Outside, the house is complemented by leafy, mature gardens, including a sizeable south-facing rear garden with a greenhouse. Providing delightful areas for alfresco dining and entertaining are a raised south-facing terrace with Pentland Hill views and a large, covered patio. An attached single garage and a two-car driveway provide good private parking.
