The kitchen has space for a table and chairs and is fitted with a wealth of wall and base units housing quality appliances, while the utility room houses further appliances and a door leading out to the rear garden. The master bedroom can easily accommodate a king-size bed with two shelved Edinburgh Press open cupboards and has excellent storage comprising two double fitted wardrobes housing shelving and hanging rails. The second bedroom is located to the rear of the property and is also of generous proportions. The accommodation is completed by a bathroom with three-piece white suite comprising a bath with overbath shower, a w.c. and washhand basin. Murrayfield is one of the city's most highly-regarded residential locations. The property is only two miles from the City Centre enabling potential purchasers to enjoy the wealth of departmental and designer stores located there, including Harvey Nichols and the new St James Quarter in addition to many smaller specialist retailers. There are some local shops close by providing for everyday requirements on the main road through Murrayfield. The renowned financial and business districts of the City Centre are also easily reached and aside from the property's superb location, the surrounding areas of Corstorphine and Craigleith provide excellent shopping facilities including a choice of superstores at the Gyle Shopping Centre and a large Sainsbury superstore and many other High Street stores at the Craigleith Retail Park. Sporting and recreational facilities in the area include the home of Scottish Rugby at Murrayfield Stadium, Edinburgh Zoo, Murrayfield Tennis Club, the David Lloyd Tennis and Health Club along Glasgow Road, and the challenging Ravelston and Murrayfield golf courses. The property is within the catchment area for excellent state schools and is easily-accessible for The Mary Erskine School, St George's School for Girls, and Stewart's Melville Co-educational School close by. The stylish property is presented to the market in walk-in condition with many extras offered including all fitted carpets, curtains and blinds, and all the kitchen appliances. Double glazing and gas central heating ensure comfort and economy. The property also benefits from a monobloc driveway to front providing off-street parking and a well-maintained private garden to the rear with superb decked area. This is a lovely two-bedroom villa which is likely to attract substantial interest from young families or those wishing to downsize from a larger property to an easily maintained property in an area close to all amenities. The property will also be of interest to any investor wishing an excellent letting opportunity and we therefore recommend an early viewing to fully appreciate the property we are now delighted to bring to the market.
