Enjoying a lovely setting on tree-lined Sleigh Drive in Craigentinny, this extended lower villa offers a fantastic home or buy-to-let investment with a low-maintenance private garden to the front and side, as well as access to a shared rear garden. The property is presented to a contemporary, move-in standard throughout and also features a large living room and an open-plan kitchen and dining area onto the garden.
The lower villa is accessed via an enclosed front garden leading to the main entrance to the side. Welcoming you inside is a spacious hall, at the end of which is the heart of the home: the open-plan kitchen and dining area. Bathed in light from south-facing patio doors and a generous skylight, the space falls naturally into dedicated zones for cooking and dining, bridged by a breakfast bar. In the kitchen, gloss-white handleless cabinetry is topped with granite-effect work surfaces and upstands, providing excellent built-in storage and workspace, as well as integrated appliances. The spacious dining area easily accommodates family-sized dining table and can be extended onto the suntrap rear shared garden via patio doors. The well-proportioned living room is positioned to the front of the property and incorporates a built-in cupboard. The lower villa boasts two double bedrooms, the largest of which is reached via a walk-through dressing room with built-in mirrored wardrobes. This impressive master bedroom is south-facing and also enjoys an immaculate en-suite shower room with a double shower compartment, a vanity washbasin, a WC and a towel warmer. The second bedroom to the front also benefits from a built-in mirrored wardrobe. Completing the accommodation is the three-piece family bathroom. Double-glazed windows and gas central heating guarantee year-round comfort and efficiency.
The lower villa boasts outstanding private gardens to the front and side, incorporating a decking area to the side/rear, as well as access to a shared drying green (lawn area) which extends behind the current fence. The enclosed front garden is landscaped for minimal maintenance. Unrestricted on-street parking is available directly adjacent on Sleigh Drive.
The property is in the residential area of Craigentinny lying east of Edinburgh’s City Centre and neighbouring the seaside town of Portobello. There is a wide selection of local shops for everyday needs and further shopping can be found at nearby Portobello High Street. Nearby Fort Kinnaird Retail Park boasts an abundance of retail outlets, restaurants, a gym and a cinema. There are good schools within the area from nursery to senior level. The property is ideally situated for access to the City Centre and the City Bypass.
