Description

Beautifully presented and spacious, this exceptional three-bedroom semi-detached home, adjoining an impressive Victorian townhouse, benefits from a private driveway and well-maintained gardens. Set within the highly sought-after Newington area, south of Edinburgh’s city centre, the property enjoys a desirable address along with a triple-aspect and southerly-facing natural light.  A welcoming entrance hall provides access to much of the ground floor and includes a useful understair storage cupboard, with stairs leading to the upper level. Positioned to the front, the stylish living room enjoys a side aspect, tasteful neutral decor, wood-effect flooring flowing seamlessly from the hall, and a charming wood-burning stove creating a warm focal point.

From the lounge, the generously proportioned dining kitchen benefits from a bright southerly aspect, bathing the space in natural light. Newly fitted modern units are complemented by wood-effect worktops and matching splashbacks, along with a sink and drainer.

Integrated appliances include a double oven, gas hob, and fridge/freezer, as well as a freestanding washing machine — perfectly suited for both everyday living and entertaining. Completing the ground floor, bedroom three offers excellent versatility, ideal as a comfortable guest bedroom, nursery, or dedicated home office.

On the first floor, there is a large storage cupboard and two exceptionally spacious double bedrooms featuring continuous, attractive wood-effect flooring and ample space for freestanding furnishings. A contemporary shower room completes the accommodation, featuring a stylish rainfall shower with panelled splash walls, complemented by tiled flooring and walls for a sleek finish.
