The property

Nestled within a small and exceptionally tranquil cul-de-sac development in sought-after Liberton, this modern three-bedroom detached house offers a delightful family home, complete with a south-facing rear garden, a single garage and a tandem driveway with space for two cars. Positioned behind gravelled front garden and a tandem driveway, the house instantly endears within its redbrick and light render faade. The main entrance is tucked to the side of the property within a secluded porch, and opens into a good-sized hall with a convenient WC. Presented in classic cream hues, the large living-room enjoys wonderful natural light courtesy of a full-height box-bay window and at the focal point of the room is a living-flame gas fire framed by a contemporary surround. The open-plan kitchen and dining area to the rear is subtly divided by a wide archway and provides an ideal setting for everyday family life and entertaining. The sunny kitchen is appointed with an excellent range of contemporary white cabinets and stone-effect worktops, which offer excellent hidden storage and ample workspace. Integrated appliances include a four-burner gas hob, a canopy hood and an eye-level double oven/grill. Provision is also made for a freestanding fridge-freezer, an undercounter washing machine and an undercounter dishwasher. The dining area would easily accommodate a six-seat table and flows into the triple-aspect conservatory. Bathed in all-day sun and with the added benefit of central heating, the conservatory represents a versatile reception room with direct access to the garden. Upstairs the property boasts a south-facing master bedroom with twin built-in wardrobes and an en-suite shower room with a handy airing cupboard. The second double bedroom and the generous single bedroom to the front both enjoy appealing proportions and fitted wardrobes. Completing the accommodation is the three-piece bathroom, which is immaculately tiled in neutral tones and features a shower-over-bath with a glazed screen and a contemporary washbasin and toilet suite. Gas central heating and double-glazed windows ensure a warm, energy-efficient climate all year round. Externally the property enjoys a low-maintenance front garden and a south-facing rear garden. The rear garden is fully enclosed for optimum privacy and peace of mind, and has been landscaped to include a sunny patio, a lawn, a shed and a selection of established shrubs. The garden allows access to the single garage (with light and power), which is supplemented with a two-car tandem driveway. EPC Rating - D. Extras: all fitted floor coverings, blinds, light fixtures, fridge-freezer, dishwasher and washing machine to be included in the sale. Liberton The quiet suburb of Liberton offers a sought-after village atmosphere that you can scarcely believe is only three miles south of Edinburgh city centre. The area is mainly residential with a high concentration of tranquil green spaces, and is therefore popular with young families seeking a more active, outdoor lifestyle within the city limits. There is no shortage of activities and outdoor pursuits to suit all ages and abilities, from a game of frisbee or a picnic in Liberton Public Park, to a round of golf at Braid Hills Golf Centre or Liberton Golf Club, which yields panoramic views across the city. With a range of shops close by, including Cameron Toll Shopping Centre (with over 40 shops, including two large supermarkets) and more traditional shops in the older parts of Liberton itself (including a post office, a bank and a chemist), there is no need to travel into the centre for shopping. The property falls within the catchment area for Liberton Primary School and Liberton High School, and is well situated for a choice of independent schools. The University of Edinburgh King's Buildings campus and Edinburgh Royal Infirmary are also nearby. Regular day and night bus services ensure fast and convenient travel links to the city centre and beyond.
