The home is entered via a welcoming porch which leads to a bright hall with a full-height cupboard and separate under-stair storage. Its living room has an abundance of natural light, thanks to large Velux windows, and flows into a fantastic sunroom with sliding doors leading to a patio and a large south-facing garden.

The garden also has a sunhouse, which could be turned into a reading room or home office, gate access to adjacent parkland, and a garage.

The home’s contemporary kitchen is complemented by sleek wooden units and adjoins a dining room which provides a great space for entertaining. A downstairs bathroom here is located off the hall.

Sunroom with sliding doors accesses the garden

Upstairs, there are four well-proportioned double bedrooms, with the master benefitting from a generous ensuite with shower, and splendid views of Edinburgh Castle and the characterful city skyline.

An adjacent family bathroom completes the property’s impressive inventory.
