The property

This traditional semi-detached house is a spacious and versatile family home, which offers two reception rooms and three double bedrooms. Situated in popular Craigentinny, it benefits from an easy commute into Edinburgh city centre, and is within walking distance of Portobello Beach. Furthermore, it enjoys private parking for two cars, a large rear garden, and lovely views of the iconic Arthur’s Seat.
