Offering four/five bedrooms, the flexible layout provides scope for home working, guest accommodation or additional living space, while the neutral décor creates a bright and welcoming backdrop throughout.
A south-facing aspect enhances the home’s appeal, complemented by substantial private gardens.
The enclosed rear garden is a particular highlight, with its expansive sweeping lawn providing a fantastic setting for children to play, summer entertaining, gardening or simply relaxing outdoors.
Private parking for two cars adds further everyday convenience.
Combining adaptable accommodation, impressive garden grounds and a superb location close to Edinburgh’s coastline, this rarely available detached home offers an exciting opportunity to enjoy a relaxed suburban lifestyle while remaining well connected to everything the capital has to offer.
