The property
Enjoying a very desirable residential setting, this is a deceptively spacious DETACHED BUNGALOW with super extension potential. Greenbank is on the southern fringes of Morningside and as such, convenient for an abundance of amenities. Vestibule, Hall, Sitting room. Living room. Dining room; 2 Bedrooms, Kitchen & Bathroom; Upstairs to 2 further bedrooms & Toilet; Extensive Cellars. Gas CH. Double Glazing; Garage & beautifully landscaped gardens.. Location Greenbank Crescent runs along the north slopes of the Braidburn Valley starting from the lights at the junction of Comiston Road and Pentland Terrace (A702). There are nearby "corner shops" a choice of bus route pass from outside the property or a few minutes' walk. A little further, there are supermarket and multi-national outlets in Morningside and Bruntsfield, both only a short drive. The city's by-passes are easily accessed leading on to the Motorway network, the Forth Bridge and Edinburgh Airport. The local schooling is highly regarded: South Morningside Primary and Boroughmuir High School both serve the catchment. Leisure pursuits are particularly well catered for too with some lovely, picturesque walks along the Braidburn or indeed both Craiglockhart & Blackford Hills; Nearby Tennis courts, golf courses etc are also plentiful..The area offers an extremely pleasant lifestyle, almost semi-rural, yet Edinburgh's city centre is a simple three mile commute. The Property Completed around 1940, this is an imposing DETACHED BUNGALOW with delightful mature, landscaped gardens. The proportion of the rooms is significant and therein lies the obvious potential to create a stunning family home. Not only is there scope to rearrange the current layout but extension prospects to the rear in particular are enormous. There are even possibilities to transform the cellars into accommodation. However, those measures are by no means essential, the existing layout could simply be upgraded.
