We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
A charming, detached bungalow, brimming with character and potential and enjoying a superb location on one of Blackhall's most desirable residential streets.
A much-loved family home for many years, the property offers a fantastic opportunity to upgrade and remodel in line with individual taste and boasts a partially converted attic, with scope to develop further (subject to obtaining consents).
The accommodation is accessed via an extensive gated drive and tiled vestibule and briefly comprises; a welcoming hallway with useful built-in storage and a ceiling hatch leading to the attic space, a spacious dual aspect reception/dining room which boasts a southerly facing bay window, coving and an attractive focal fireplace.
To the rear of the house, you have a well-equipped kitchen which has been fitted with a range of base and wall units, complete with splash and floor tiling, coordinated wipe clean worktops and a variety of built-in appliances.
Off this room is a versatile sunroom, which would work well as a home office or dining room and provides direct access to the rear garden.
There are three good sized double bedrooms, a single bedroom which would make an excellent nursery or working space, a tiled family bathroom with three-piece white suite, and over-bath shower/splash screen.
Please note that the property is empty and has been virtually staged in some of the photos.
These are clearly marked and the photographs of the empty rooms have been included, There is a generous south facing garden to the front of the house with views towards Corstorphine Hill.
The garden is well stocked with a variety of mature bushes and trees and though currently configured as an extensive driveway, could easily be set up as a lawned family friendly space.
A single garage provides excellent secure parking/overspill storage.
To the rear is a leafy well-kept private garden, which has a wonderfully tranquil feel, with fruit trees, well stocked borders and a paved seating space. Council tax band- G
