49 Charterhall Grove, Edinburgh, EH9 3HT

Hall / Landing

With a wooden floor, this has a stripped wooden stairway leading up to the first floor, and is well lit by large original frosted windows to front. There are two very useful storage cupboards beneath the stairs, with one housing the newly installed boiler, the other currently housing a metal filing cabinet.

Sitting Room and Dining Room

7.21 m X 3.53 m / 23'8" X 11'7"

Running from front to back, this is a very pleasant room with good natural light from both aspects. To the front, there is an open outlook over the cul de sac. A sanded wooden floor is teamed with cool contemporary paintwork in a pastel grey/beige shade. A double glazed glass door opens out onto the patio area of the sunny south facing garden. The wood burning stove is a cheery feature in winter when the chill winds and sleet blow! Direct access from the generous dining area to the kitchen.

Kitchen

4.78 m X 2.87 m / 15'8" X 9'5"

This kitchen was created 7 years ago when the house was extended, making it so much more suitable for a family. It has something of a country style kitchen feel with veneered oak work surfaces and wall shelves in addition to the fitted units. There is a superb big stone sink. As well as two windows to the back garden there is a narrow one to the front, with lots of extra light coming from a large velux window in the extension’s sloping roof. In addition to the generous storage space within the fitted units, there is a wonderful fitted larder cupboard as well as one or two slim presses tucked in – one for the ironing board for example. Blue lino flooring.

Bedroom 1

4.19 m X 3.02 m / 13'9" X 9'11"

To the front of the house, this is an excellent size. Look to your right out of the broad window and there lies Arthurs Seat. There is a bank of fitted wardrobes and a deep shelved cupboard, offering generous storage space. Pale grey walls teamed with white ceiling. New carpet.

Bedroom 2

3.02 m X 3.02 m / 9'11" X 9'11"

To the back of the house, this faces towards Blackford Hill. Again this is of generous proportions – it also has good fitted cupboard capacity. Unusual, pretty bird patterned wallpaper. The short leaf patterned curtains are included in the sale. New Carpet.

Bedroom 3

2.84 m X 2.57 m / 9'4" X 8'5"

Currently used as a home office as it is no longer required as a bedroom, this is a useful space in current times, but it has a good square footage and could easily revert to a bedroom. The sofa futon in it at present is a king sized one to give you an idea. Fitted shelving and generous fitted oak veneer desk. White and blue spotty curtains. Yellow vinyl tiled flooring.

Bathroom

This has a bath augmented by an electric shower at one end, with this area being wet-walled. The shower, sink and toilet were recently upgraded. Storage cupboard under the sink and drawers to the end of the bath. The walls are partly tiled in a soft sea blue. Wooden flooring.

Floored Attic

You access the attic by ladder, which stores neatly away behind a door when not in use. The generous attic space ( 4m50 x 3m71) is completely floored and whilst not an official room, it is currently used as a music making space. It has a north facing velux window, which offers a spectacular viewpoint for festival and Hogmanay firework displays. It also has a large walk in storage cupboard, and storage shelves set into the eaves.

Upstairs Hallway

The landing and final few stairs are carpeted to match the upper hallway and Bedrooms 1 and 2, all fitted in 2021. A window to the side of the house lets light in. There are fitted bookshelves with a cupboard underneath and a large linen cupboard.

Outside

The sloping garden to front and rear is deceptively spacious. A flat gravelled area adjacent to the pavement could be developed into a generous parking space, subject to the necessary permissions. Generous space for waste bins and composting, with a small area laid to lawn, and a large well maintained rockery below. A wooden gate leads to side of house. Good sized storage shed, and an open area behind that currently used for bicycle storage. From there, the rear garden is accessed by a passage bounded by privet hedge on one side, and the kitchen extension on the other. The rear garden is on two levels, On the lower level there is a narrow patio area with wooden trellis and climbing plants. The upper level is accessed by a short flight of steps. The central area is laid to lawn. The rear garden is bounded by privet hedge, and a gravelled seating area is ideal for catching the evening sun. The original clothes poles are intact, so plenty of space for drying clothes.
