With an absolutely delightful garden, this END TERRACED VILLA offers super potential to extend either upwards or to the side. It is located within this highly popular residential estate and it is little wonder families are attracted to this location, given the excellent nearby schooling and extensive amenities the area has to offer…it even neighbours the "seaside village" of Portobello. Hall; Sitting/Diningroom ( Patio doors to gardens ); Kitchen; Study/ "Work from Home"; 2 generous Bedrooms and bathroom. Gas Central Heating; Double Glazing & Lovely Gardens; Driveway for two cars. Mountcastle Gardens swings round in a crescent shape from the larger "boulevard" of Mountcastle Road North and comprises an interesting mix of homes, from 1930's bungalows, to more modern types of lower and upper villa flats and terraced & semi-detached houses. This has attracted mostly families who enjoy a really pleasant environment that benefits from an extensive range of amenities. The local schooling is renowned with Royal High & St Johns primary and Portobello & Holyrood High schools. Shopping is excellent too with several useful "corner shops", a choice of nearby supermarkets and the vast Fort Kinnaird is only 1 mile to the south. Buses pass by and motorists can quickly get on to the By-passes. Leisure and recreation is well served with the lovely local Figgate Park and a real attraction for many, is the close proximity of neighbouring Portobello where there any number of attractions and community based activities. Built in the 1960's, this is an END TERRACED HOUSE of traditional construction and offering good sized accommodation. The property is nicely presented and benefits from contemporary style kitchen and bathroom, gas central heating and double glazing; yet, the house feels nice and homely.
