    About the property

    SOLD SUBJECT TO CONCLUSION OF MISSIVES

    23 Abercorn Drive is nestled on a quiet residential street close to Holyrood Park, and within easy reach of the city centre.

    Set back from the road, steps lead through the front garden to a glazed front door, with vestibule opening into a long reception hall with a storage cupboard. Immediately to the right, glazed double folding doors flow into the open plan reception room. To the front, the living room with recessed woodburning stove offers a relaxing space. A bay window floods the space with natural light, and frames the panoramic views to the north, as far as Fife. An arch opens into the adjoining, spacious dining area, featuring a sunny, south-facing garden outlook. Accessed off the hall, the galley-style kitchen encompasses two full lengths of handleless units, complemented by bamboo worktops, with integrated appliances. An open arch incorporating a breakfast bar links into the dining room.

    The first-floor landing gives access to two double bedrooms, each with neutral décor and cosy carpets, one, to the front, benefiting from the breath-taking Firth of Forth views, whilst the second, offering a warm south-facing aspect. The family bathroom, conveniently located adjacent, houses a contemporary styled three-piece suite. An efficient gas central heating system and double glazing ensure year-round comfort.

    Outside, the south-facing landscaped garden features a paved rear patio, timber raised beds and mature borders. Steps lead to a lawn and an elevated decked area beyond. There is a garden shed, and access, via a secure gate, to the front, with unrestricted on street parking.

Willowbrae enjoys a good location for schooling, Edinburgh’s universities and further education.
