Description

Rarely available, immaculately presented and spacious, flexible two-bedroom, detached period property, set on an enclosed corner plot. Uniquely located, a former groundskeeper’s cottage for Gogar Castle, in the Gogar district west of Edinburgh centre.

The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hallway leading to the heart of the home. The bright and spacious living room enjoys a dual aspect, flooding the space with natural light, and features a stylish tiled feature wall, a wall-mounted TV point, and a cosy wood-burning stove.

High-quality wood-effect flooring flows seamlessly from the hall, enhancing the sense of space and continuity. Off the living room, a generous, stylish kitchen is fitted with modern units and worktops, a sink with a spray pull tap, with appliances including a range-style gas cooker, a fridge/freezer, and an integrated washing machine, dishwasher, microwave, and wine cooler.

With ample space for dining and entertaining, the room is completed by sliding patio doors that open directly onto the rear garden, perfect for indoor-outdoor living. The impressive principal bedroom is situated at the front of the home and benefits from dual aspect windows, including a striking bay window, a fireplace, light decor, and carpeted flooring.

A second bedroom with a dual aspect is set to the rear, similarly well-finished with light decor, carpeted flooring and a built-in wardrobe. A fully tiled shower room adds a touch of luxury, with a large cubicle, rainfall showerhead, and a modern ladder-style radiator.

Additional highlights include a substantial loft space offering excellent potential for conversion (subject to necessary planning permissions and consents), providing a fantastic opportunity to further enhance this already exceptional home.
