Boasting a landscaped south-facing garden and driveway and in easy reach of The University of Edinburgh Kings Buildings, The Braids, Cameron Toll Shopping Centre, and Liberton Primary School along with swift transport links to the city centre, it provides the comfort and convenience needed for a superb lifestyle.
Approached via a landscaped front garden bordering a two-car driveway with an electric vehicle charging point, the front door opens into a welcoming entrance porch complete with original doors and terracotta floor tiles, and then a light-filled hallway. Adorned with handsome upgraded wooden flooring, a picture rail, a tasteful décor and original four-panel internal doors, its refined elegance sets the scene for the property.
To your right lies the living room bathed in natural light from bay windows with original panels overlooking the front of the property. Beautifully decorated and with high ceilings, a picture rail, and a built-in Edinburgh press it exudes a sophisticated yet warm ambience. With a living flame fireplace nestled in a striking ornate mantle and insert, and plush carpeting it is the perfect place to relax or entertain.
Returning to the hallway and moving to the rear of the property past a modern WC, the spectacular south-facing dining kitchen and family room await. Boasting a wonderful aspect of the garden and with French door access, these three living and reception areas seamlessly flow into one another to create an enviable space at the heart of the home.
Cosy and inviting the family room offers a snug retreat centred around a log-burning stove set into a white mantle. Continuity in design is achieved with the handsome wooden flooring of the hallway while a chic palette of natural shades and whites provides a charming backdrop.
Transitioning into the skylit dining kitchen, the thoughtfully designed space combines style and functionality. Whilst a sense of cohesion is achieved with wooden flooring, a statement accent wall of wood panelling differentiates the dining area from the family room whilst adding visual interest to the space.
The upgraded contemporary kitchen stands as a testament to timeless design and practicality and showcases natural shades of wall and floor cabinetry, butcher block worktops and a white gloss tiled splashback. High-quality integrated appliances include a Belling range cooker with an 8-ring gas hob, a dishwasher, and an American-style fridge/freezer.
Completing the ground floor layout is a versatile study/bedroom to the front, along with a stunning double bedroom offering a tranquil sanctuary with French doors opening out to the rear garden. Finished in soothing natural shades and whites and with wooden flooring, its appeal is enhanced by a new en-suite shower room complete with a hidden cistern WC, chrome towel radiator, and washbasin set against natural-hued tiles.
Returning to the hallway, carpeted stairs with the original brass stair runners lead you past a stained-glass feature window hinting at the heritage of the home which is also evident by the property’s five fireplaces, servant bells, and other fine period details and take you to the airy landing. Here three impressive double bedrooms await.
The light and airy principal like the other bedrooms enjoys generous proportions, plush carpeting, and a pristine interior design, and benefits from a sizeable dressing area featuring an original focal fireplace.
They each share access to a stunning newly installed design-led bathroom comprising a white suite of a 100-year-old cast iron oval bath, WC, and washbasin, complemented by a rainfall shower enclosure and a chrome towel radiator. With a backdrop of large natural shade porcelain wall and floor tiles, the overall effect is one of luxury and comfort.
Excellent storage throughout the house ensures the property remains uncluttered and streamlined.
Externally, the landscaped walled rear garden, recently repointed provides a tranquil south-facing setting with an elevated astroturf lawn flanked by a lower composite decking area and a raised alfresco seating space. The latter is partially nestled under a pergola roof extending from the adjacent newly erected garden shed which is finished with stylish timber cladding.
With a new boiler, windows and doors, upgraded radiators, double-glazed sash and case windows, new electrics, and a smart WiFi-controlled nest heating system the property is warm, comfortable and energy efficient all year round. The downstairs bedroom/ensuite, a versatile office/utility room, and a spacious first-floor bedroom were all completed with meticulous attention to detail in 2023.
Peace of mind is achieved with compliant-interlinked smoke and heat detectors, nest CCTV to the front and rear, and a smart security alarm system, suitable for pets.
