Property Description
44 Braid Farm Road comes to market offering a substantial detached four-bedroom family home occupying an elevated position with far-reaching views across Edinburgh. Extending to over 1,900 sq ft and complemented by extensive private gardens, the property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a significant family home with outstanding potential for modernisation and renovation.
The ground floor is centred around an impressive sitting room, which enjoys a large south-facing bay window overlooking the mature garden, perfect for everyday entertaining and relaxing. Adjacent to the sitting room is a versatile fourth bedroom, which could equally serve as a home office, study or playroom, making the layout well suited to modern family living. The spacious kitchen offers an excellent footprint for redesign and modernisation, while the separate dining room is conveniently positioned alongside and provides a welcoming second reception space. A greenhouse accessed from the dining room enjoys views over the rear garden, and a useful ground-floor WC completes the accommodation on this level.
The first-floor hosts three well-proportioned double bedrooms, including a spacious principal bedroom which benefits from useful built-in storage. The remaining bedrooms are both generous doubles and are served by a family bathroom, together with additional cupboard storage.
Externally, the property enjoys substantial front and rear gardens, with an excellent degree of privacy and potential for landscaping, extension or further development. The property further benefits from a large driveway, an integral garage and a second detached garage, which could be ideally suited for conversion into a home office, gym, games room, studio. An additional outbuilding and useful loft storage further enhance the property's practicality.
