Property description
A rare opportunity to acquire an exceptionally attractive mid-terraced period villa, combining generous proportions, a flexible layout, beautiful original character and stylish interiors with an outstanding private garden giving direct access to St Margaret’s Park.
This beautifully presented home offers spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors, providing an excellent balance of space for family living and entertaining. The ground floor features an impressive bay-windowed reception room, enhanced by attractive period features. A generous separate dining room leads through to a well-appointed fitted kitchen with Shaker-style cabinetry and direct access to the garden. Completing the ground floor is a further sitting room/bedroom, offering excellent flexibility as a fourth bedroom, home office or additional reception space. There is also exciting potential with planning consent to extend across the rear of the property to create a substantial open-plan kitchen, dining and family room with a strong connection to the garden, full details of the proposed extension are available from Neilsons (CEC Reference24/04198/FUL D). Upstairs, the principal bedroom is positioned to the front of the property and enjoys far-reaching views towards the Pentland Hills, together with fitted wardrobes. There are two further generously proportioned double bedrooms and a luxurious family bathroom with underfloor heating. Further benefits include gas central heating, with the boiler discreetly located within the attic space, and timber-framed double glazing, with the exception of bedroom 4 and the kitchen, combining year-round comfort with the character and charm of the property's period style.
A particular highlight of the property is the large, established rear garden, which enjoys an enviable setting adjoining St Margaret’s Park, with a private gate providing direct access. A generous patio offers the perfect setting for al fresco dining and entertaining during the warmer months, while the established lawn is complemented by mature flower and shrub borders. Mature trees provide an attractive backdrop and afford the garden a high degree of privacy. To the front, a substantial garden creates an appealing sense of space and sets the house well back from the street. A gated driveway provides convenient off-street parking, with additional unrestricted on-street parking also available.
