The property

Part exchange available! McEwan Fraser is delighted to present this spacious Art-Deco-style detached house that backs onto the River Almond, just a stone’s throw from Cramond Village. The property has a west-facing rear garden with a panoramic view over the River towards the Dalmeny Estate. Cramond Boat Club is located just at the mouth of the River Almond giving the wonderful prospect of your car at the front and your boat at the back as you would find in some of Europe’s most sought-after residential marinas. Internally, the property has been substantially renovated by the current owner and offers contemporary living space that has been designed to take maximum advantage of this property’s unique riverside position. Natural light floods the property, and the internal entertaining spaces integrate seamlessly with a substantial deck that overlooks the garden and the riverbank. The property also offers significant long-term potential. Subject to planning permission, further development of the extensive detached garage into a separate self-contained dwelling may be possible. Similarly, the main house has a flat roof which could make a magnificent terrace and extensive cellar space could be adapted to provide additional living space. Accommodation is focused on the stunning open-plan kitchen and family room offering breathtaking panoramic views of the garden and the River Almond beyond. Floor-to-ceiling glazed sliding doors seamlessly connect this space to the rear deck, enhancing the sense of openness and light. The deck is west facing making a perfect summer suntrap. An extension to the side of the kitchen has created a beautiful dining room that enjoys huge levels of natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows on the south and west aspects. Glazed double doors open onto an additional decked area to the east which is perfect for morning sun. The cosy sitting room can be accessed from the dining room or the main hallway. This beautiful room offers a wonderful contrast to the modern kitchen. The house was originally built by a naval captain and the magnificent timber cladding was salvaged from his cabin. The room has its original open fire which creates a lovely focal point on a long winter night. The ground floor also includes a dedicated office that overlooks the front garden and provides a quiet workspace away from the main living area. This room could easily serve as a fifth bedroom, offering flexible accommodation options. Completing the ground floor is a generous utility room with external access, along with a W.C. conveniently located off the entrance hall. Climbing the stairs takes you to a bright and airy landing that gives access to all four bedrooms, a shower room, a dressing room, and a separate WC. The principal suite boasts an elegantly appointed en suite bathroom with a bath and separate shower, as well as stunning views north and west towards the River Almond and the Firth of Forth. Bedrooms two, three, and four are all generously proportioned double bedrooms. Externally, the property sits on a large plot of around 0.44 acres. There is ample off-street parking and two driveways, one to the house, and the other giving access to the detached garage. The front garden is fully enclosed and safe for pets and young children. The west-facing rear garden is mature and offers a high degree of privacy and an exceptional outlook. This property must be seen to be appreciated.
