This significant 6-10 bedroom former care home sits in a prestigious Edinburgh location and is a blank canvas for refurbishment

Situated in the popular Inverleith area of the capital, this beautiful, link-detached house is a former care home, now in need of modernisation.

While the exterior of the building has undergone a programme of works including improvements to the roof, chimney stacks and pointing, the interior remains a project, and with the property configured over three floors, there is scope for the whole building to become a substantial family home, or alternatively, the garden level could remain as a self-contained two-bedroom flat.

The house could be configured in a number of ways but there is potential for at least six bedrooms, combined with wonderful living and entertaining space. It is rare for a property of this scale to come to the market in Inverleith, and particularly one that gives the opportunity to create a perfect home, almost from scratch.

The property benefits from large scale proportions, natural light, and period details, and in addition, the westerly views across the Royal Botanic Gardens provide the kind of tranquil, green outlook that is hard to find in a city centre.

Externally, there is a single garage and parking area to the front of the house, while the large south west facing rear garden features a lawn, mature borders and trees, as well as a patio area for outside dining.

On the market with Knight Frank for offers over £1,750,000, more details can be found HERE.
