About
Rare opportunity to acquire this generously proportioned five bedroom semi-detached villa, quietly pocketed within the popular Midlothian town of Penicuik.
Positioned close to reputable schooling, superb local amenities and convenient transport links, the property offers versatile accommodation and represents an ideal family home.
A welcoming entrance hallway provides access to the main living spaces.
The bright and spacious lounge/diner enjoys a desirable dual aspect and features sliding patio doors opening directly onto the rear garden, creating an excellent space for everyday living and entertaining.
The fully fitted kitchen offers a range of integrated and freestanding white goods, complemented by partial tiling in splash areas and both under-unit and in-cabinet lighting.
Off the kitchen lies a useful utility / sunroom with additional garden access and a large storage cupboard.
Completing the ground floor accommodation is a flexible family room or sixth bedroom, offering space for a double bed if required, along with a fully tiled two-piece WC.
The first floor landing leads to five well-proportioned bedrooms.
The principal bedroom is a double room featuring a large Velux window, integrated double wardrobe, and a private en-suite shower room with panelled surround.
Bedroom two is a rear-facing double benefitting from a Velux window and access hatch to the attic, while bedroom three is another double, also featuring a Velux window and integrated wardrobe.
Bedrooms four and five are both single rooms with integrated storage, offering flexible use as nurseries or home office spaces.
The family bathroom is fitted with a corner jacuzzi-style bath, a separate corner shower cubicle, and partial splash panelling.
Further benefits include gas central heating and double glazing throughout. Externally, the property benefits from a private front garden finished with chipstone borders and artificial turf.
The sizeable rear garden is split-level, with a wooden decked area ideal for patio furniture and an upper level laid with artificial turf, providing an excellent space for children to play.
