About
Set within a handsome stone-built terrace of Victorian homes, this beautifully presented double upper villa enjoys an enviable position close to Leith Links.
The property has been carefully upgraded by the current owner, thoughtfully combining its period character with a contemporary aesthetic to create a stylish and welcoming family home.
The property is entered through a smart double storm door, with the original terrazzo-tiled entrance hall and stair leading to the first floor.
The light-filled bay-windowed sitting room is a particularly appealing space, with beautiful decorative cornicing and herringbone-pattern hardwood flooring adding to its character and sense of warmth.
A log-burning stove provides a lovely focal point, creating a comfortable setting in which to relax and unwind.
The stylish modern kitchen features sleek, handleless cabinetry and a range of Neff appliances, including a five-ring gas hob, Slide&Hide oven and fridge/freezer.
There is ample space for a dining table and chairs, creating a sociable area for everyday family life.
A practical utility room lies directly off the kitchen and houses the Bosch dishwasher and washing machine, along with the Worcester boiler.
Also on this floor is the principal bedroom, which enjoys a pleasant outlook over the rear gardens, together with the adjacent elegant bathroom, fitted with a bath with rainfall shower over, WC, wash hand basin and heated towel rail.
Bedroom four is currently used as a generous home office and music room, offering excellent flexibility.
Upstairs, there are two further double bedrooms, both benefiting from excellent natural light through Velux windows and offering lovely views of the sky above.
The windows also provide the opportunity for some enjoyable star gazing at night. A separate dressing room provides useful additional storage.
The property further benefits from gas central heating and double glazing.
To the rear, the south-facing private garden is mainly laid with low-maintenance stone chippings, together with a patio area providing an ideal spot to enjoy the afternoon sun.
Unrestricted on-street parking is available nearby.
