The property

Situated in sought-after Balgreen, close to Carrick Knowe Golf Course, Corstorphine Nature Reserve and Balgreen tram stop, this stylishly refurbished lower villa offers generously-proportioned accommodation with off-road parking and private gardens. Boasting delightful features perfectly blended with contemporary touches and quality fittings, this city home incorporates two bedrooms, a breakfasting kitchen and sunny bay-windowed living room. The front door opens into a vestibule, where the sage green walls frame solid oak flooring and a dado rail hints at the period features to come. Once inside, the quality flooring flows from the hallway into the reception areas and forms a backdrop for the designer wallpaper, vintage-style radiators, and original doors. Bathing in warm sunshine from a southwest-facing bay window, the living room is arranged around a fireplace that is neatly integrated into a large chimney breast with feature wallpaper and space for a recessed television. To the rear of the property, with direct garden access, is an inspired breakfasting kitchen. Modern curved-edge units with contemporary chrome handles elegantly conceal an impressive range of integrated appliances. Large solid wood worktops, integrated downlighting, and a feature wall complete this beautifully designed kitchen. The villa comes with two double bedrooms, the largest of which boasts floor-to-ceiling fitted wardrobes and double windows overlooking the front garden. The second double bedroom, carpeted in the same fashion as the larger one, enjoys a feature period fireplace, Edinburgh Press and rear garden views. Finally, a contemporary bathroom has been fitted with a matching three-piece-suite, incorporating a shower-over-bath with concertina screen, a washbasin inset into a vanity unit, a WC, and a heated chrome towel radiator. The property enjoys gas central heating and double glazing throughout, as well as a large paved driveway and low-maintenance garden to the front and a generous, fully-enclosed garden to the rear. Balgreen is a residential district lying approximately 3 miles West of Edinburgh City Centre and borders the popular Murrayfield area. There are good local amenities found on Balgreen Road and Stenhouse Cross (approx. 10-minute walk away) with more extensive day to day shopping at nearby Gorgie.
