    About the property

    UNDER OFFER

    Lying close to beautiful parks and the cosmopolitan Shore area, this stylish and traditional three-bedroom lower villa is situated in Edinburgh’s vibrant Leith Links district. Presented in a true move-in condition, the home has been tastefully and sympathetically modernised with inspired interior design, yet still retains a wealth of characterful original features such as stripped pine flooring and doors, striking fireplaces, ornate cornicing, and soaring high ceilings. 

    Approached via a pathway through the garden, the front door opens into an entrance vestibule, retaining its original floor tiling, which flow through to a spacious hallway. Here, crisp-white décor, chic accent wallpaper, and original stripped pine flooring give the first glimpse of the spacious and contemporary interiors to follow. On the right, you step into an impressive bay-fronted living room. Stylishly-presented in grey hues accompanied by white accents and a striking cornicing detail, this sunny reception area offers plenty of space for comfortable lounge furniture, and the large bay window presents the perfect space for a casual seated dining area. A magnificent fireplace with a cosy gas stove and a traditional Edinburgh Press also feature. Continuing along the hall, a generous dining kitchen awaits; arranged around a sociable central seated dining area, the kitchen is equipped with an excellent range of attractive cabinetry framed by spacious worktops and chic subway tiling. At the focal point of the room is an impressive range cooker, paired with a statement extractor hood, whilst space is provided for a tall fridge freezer, an integrated fridge and a dishwasher. Two cupboards provide further hidden storage and pantry space. A spacious utility room (with ideal garden access) houses further fitted cabinetry, a clothes pulley, and a washing machine.

    The appealing villa accommodates three beautifully presented double bedrooms; all offering large footprints and benefiting from a sunny aspect. The master bedroom enjoys crisp-white décor supplemented by an original fireplace, set against a striking teal feature wall, whilst the remaining bedrooms are decorated in pastel tones. Finally, a contemporary, fully-tiled bathroom comes replete with a shower-over-bath, a countertop sink, a hidden-cistern WC, a chrome towel radiator, an illuminated mirror, and a storage cabinet. Gas central heating and double glazing ensure a warm and economically-run home all year round.

    Outside, the villa enjoys its own private gardens to the front, side and rear. The sunny front and side gardens are bordered by hedges for optimum privacy, whilst the rear garden features a lawn, a handy shed, and two decked terraces – ideal for alfresco seating and summer barbecuing! Ample unrestricted on-street parking can be found on Claremont Road.

    The popular residential area of Leith Links lies east of Edinburgh's city centre. A wide selection of local shops and amenities including a Tesco supermarket (at Leith Walk) as well as nurseries and good schools for all ages are within a short walk from the property. The trendy quayside bars and restaurants of The Shore as well as The Royal Yacht Britannia, shops, a gym, eateries and multi-screen cinema complex at Ocean Terminal are within easy reach.  The property is ideally placed for access to Portobello, the A1 and the city bypass.
