Furthermore, the property benefits from free-on street parking, gas central heating and double glazing throughout. Furnished pictures are virtually staged - property is unfurnished.
Craiglockhart enjoys a tranquil, leafy setting to the south of the city centre.
The area is well-served by an extensive range of local services and amenities in Craiglockhart and nearby Colinton Village, while the bustling high streets of Bruntsfield and Morningside (both home to a vibrant selection of specialist shops, cafes, bars and bistros) are also nearby.
Craiglockhart offers a wealth of sport and leisure facilities, particularly Craiglockhart Leisure Centre & Tennis Centre.
Or if you prefer to exercise in the fresh air, why not take a relaxed stroll or cycle along the Union Canal or picturesque Water of Leith walkway.
Craiglockhart benefits from an excellent range of state schools including early years and primary schooling at Craiglockhart Primary School, followed by secondary education at Tynecastle High School.
The area is also well positioned for some of the capital’s finest independent schools, particularly Merchiston Castle School, George Watson’s College and The Edinburgh Rudolf Steiner School.
Craiglockhart is served by superb public transport links across the city and nearby Slateford train station offers regular services to Edinburgh and Glasgow.
The area is also ideal for commuter thanks to swift and easy access to the Edinburgh City Bypass, Edinburgh International Airport, and the M8/M9 motorway network. Deposit: £2,600
