    About the property

    Occupying a substantial plot on Gilmerton Road and conveniently located for excellent local amenities, bus routes and cycle paths into the city centre, this traditional detached bungalow offers a bright and spacious home in immaculate, move-in condition. The accommodation currently comprises two double bedrooms and two reception rooms, however the property offers attractive potential for conversion and/or extension thanks to a large floored/lined attic and an extensive rear garden.

     

    Positioned behind a manicured front garden, the southwest-facing property instantly endears with its stone façade and handsome bay window. Welcoming you inside is a practical entrance vestibule and an inviting L-shaped hall with a useful storage cupboard. The spacious living room enjoys outstanding natural light courtesy of the front-facing bay window and promises flexible scope for various configurations around a living-flame gas fire. The dining room also enjoys a favourable southwesterly aspect, and accommodates a walk-in boiler cupboard with practical airing/storage space. Perfect for family meals and entertaining, the dining room flows directly into the wide galley kitchen, which benefits from a back door onto the rear deck and garden. The space is lined with an array of contemporary gloss white cabinets paired with granite-effect worktops, and features an integrated four-burner gas hob with an extractor hood and an electric single oven. The bungalow boasts two delightful double bedrooms, both of which enjoy generous proportions and a quiet outlook over the rear garden. The bright and airy three-piece bathroom is immaculately tiled, and is equipped with shower-over-bath with a glass screen, a pedestal basin, a close-coupled toilet and a towel radiator. Accessible via Ramsay ladder, the substantial floored and lined attic benefits from skylights, lighting and power sockets, and offers fantastic potential for conversion into additional bedroom space (subject to relevant planning consents). The property benefits further from gas central heating, double glazing, Southwest-facing front garden & large side/rear garden and generous gated tandem driveway.

    The popular residential suburb of Gilmerton lies approximately 4 miles to the South of Edinburgh City Centre and offers an excellent range of local amenities. Once a mining village, the thriving community is well served by independent shops with further shopping facilities available at nearby Cameron Toll Shopping Centre and Straiton Retail Park.
