The property

Bright and spacious five-bedroom three-bathroom detached house offering an excellent opportunity for enhancement, plus enchanting countryside views, private gardens and parking, just a stone’s throw from the Water of Leith and local amenities in sought-after Currie. Set back from the road, the front door opens into a bright vestibule, leading to a hall with storage and a shower room. Flooded with natural light, owing to a large southerly-facing window with an idyllic outlook, is the well-proportioned living room. Also benefiting from sunshine and country views is the conservatory, which offers access to the sun-trap rear garden. Adjacent, is a bright and versatile dining area, which could also be used as a charming sitting room. From here, glazed sliding doors lead to an inner hallway, with an external door and a practical cloakroom WC, plus access to the vast open plan kitchen/dining room. Although a little dated, the lovingly-maintained kitchen enjoys an excellent range of cabinets, a built-in cupboard and under counter space for appliances, plus ample space for more than ten people to dine. A large window boasts captivating rural views. Next door, a utility room provides handy storage and laundry space. Upstairs, the landing houses a built-in cupboard and leads to an inner hallway with further storage. Here, a door opens into the spacious family room, complete with dual-aspect windows; one southeast-facing and looking onto glorious open countryside. The family home offers no less than five bedrooms; two on the ground floor and three upstairs. Four of these boast tremendous fitted storage; two feature a desirable southerly outlook. Finally, a three-piece shower room and bathroom on the first floor completes the accommodation. Externally, the property boasts private gardens to the front, side and rear, with the sunny back garden housing a shed and greenhouse. An integral garage and practical car port provided private parking. Gas central heating ensures a warm and economically-run home.
