SOLD - SUBJECT TO CONCLUSION OF MISSIVES
Enjoying well-proportioned living spaces, and wonderful views of the Pentland Hills, plus delightful gardens and a private driveway, this semi-detached house presents a perfect opportunity for those looking for a peaceful retreat yet within striking distance of the city centre. Situated in an established residential area of Buckstone, the house lies within easy reach of local shops and schools, and just a stone’s throw from excellent road and bus links.
Positioned back from the road behind a well-kept lawn, the front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall presented with muted décor and a practical wood-styled floor. On the left, you step into a neutrally-decorated reception room stretching the entire depth of the property, with a bright dual aspect, and offering plenty of space for lounge furniture and a separate seated dining area. The dining area is further heightened by a handy serving hatch to the kitchen. The neighbouring kitchen (with garden access) is fitted with a good range of cabinetry framed by spacious worktops and splashback tiling. Two built-in cupboards and fitted shelving offer further useful storage.
Upstairs, a landing leads to three bedrooms; all incorporating built-in storage, whilst the rear-facing bedroom boasts enviable views of the Pentland Hills. Completing the accommodation on offer is a bathroom, comprising a shower-over-bath with a glazed screen, a basin set into storage, a WC, and a wall-mounted, mirrored vanity cabinet. The property benefits from additional storage within the attic, gas central heating and double glazing. Externally, the house enjoys provate gardens to the front, side and rear and a mono-block driveway to the rear of the property.
Lying southwest of the city and the beautiful Braid Hills, the area offers a great feeling of space without sacrificing local amenities and shops. Nearby Morningside is also home to a wealth of independent shopping and eateries, including delicatessens, bistros and bars, plus a Waitrose and M&S supermarket. The Hermitage of Braid and Blackford Hills Nature Reserve are right on your doorstep. Buckstone is served by an excellent range of state and private schools. The area is perfectly situated for commuters, with good bus services into Edinburgh and easy access to the City Bypass and motorway network. Home Report: £300,000. EPC BAND: C
