Description
We are delighted to present this impressive, perfectly proportioned double upper home to market, encompassing fine period features (including fireplaces in all major rooms) with elegant, tasteful modern décor. The home has been lovingly upgraded by the current owners, creating fantastic living spaces, flooded with light and offering delightful elevated views of the city skyline from both the East and West. The property is accessed by a gorgeous glazed communal hallway, with a front door that opens on to the entrance hall. The substantial staircase leads to the first floor and it's airy, light reception hall. The impressive bay windowed sitting room has a wonderful outlook to both the Castle and the Pentland hills, whilst internally a delightful fireplace and Rais Q-Tee wood burning stove creates a lovely focal point in the room in combination with exquisite decorative plasterwork ceiling and cornice. The heart of the home is the stunning kitchen / dining room which has been opened up to create a superb space for which the inhabitants can congregate. A sleek, well equipped contemporary Bulthaup kitchen with separate island has been fitted at one end, incorporating a Quooker tap, Brora induction with integral downdraft extraction, eye level double oven/microwave, dishwasher, washing machine and a separate fridge and freezer. The room is lit with a stunning Tobias Grau XT-S Suspension 140 light fitting with remote control including colour temperature control. Underfoot, the handsome Oak engineered hardwood flooring gently bounces yet more light into the room. There is plenty of space for a large dining table and chairs, offering the perfect location to enjoy the delightful views across the rooftops towards Arthur's Seat and across as far as the Bass Rock on a clear day. The family room/office has an engaging view from the corner bay window and is currently used as a more informal area to relax. A handy shower room (with WC, wash hand basin and underfloor heating) is also on this level. The sweeping staircase leads up to the second floor, flooded with natural light by the cupola overhead. There are four superb, spacious double bedrooms, all with fabulous views. A family bathroom and storage cupboard complete the internal accommodation. The rear garden is accessed via a practical store in the communal hallway and bespoke designed timber back stair, which in turn leads to the charming enclosed walled rear garden. There is a delightful mix of established plants, trees and shrubs bordering the large lawn, in addition to a garden shed in the corner (owned by this property). The shared front drive has ample space for parking, in addition to a well-tended enclosed shared front garden with a Trimetal bike shed and separate bin store area. Additional unrestricted parking is available on the surrounding streets.
