Property Description
Rarely available, a modern three-bedroom, three-bathroom, detached family home built c. 1960s. The property sits peacefully on a leafy residential street in the Waverley Park Conservation area, part of Edinburgh’s sought-after Southside, just a few miles from the city centre.
The property benefits from off-street parking with a driveway and triple car port, private front, side and rear gardens and offers spacious family accommodation over three floors. This much loved unique family home has not been on the market for over 30yrs - its design evokes retro style and would now benefit from a degree of modernisation, whilst the current owner has recently upgraded all the bathrooms, presenting the incoming buyer with an opportunity to bespoke to their individual family needs. The ground floor comprises spacious entrance hall with shower room, separate WC and double bedroom, side door access to the side and rear garden. The first floor accommodation comprises large drawing room flooded with light due to wall to wall windows, kitchen with service hatch to the drawing room, and the sun room with beautiful peaceful aspect to the rear garden. The upper floor completes the accommodation with principal bedroom and ensuite shower room, double bedroom and family bathroom.
Externally the property has a well maintained mature rear garden with fruit trees, mature shrubs and lawn area, together with walkaround path and planting to the front of the property. There is side access to the property from the front and triple car port and driveway for multiple vehicles. Residents further benefit from access to Waverley and Ventnor Park Gardens subject to a modest annual fee.
The area is well served by a range of excellent local amenities including Cameron Toll Shopping Centre; independent shops in Newington and the Grange; a variety of recreational facilities including Bowling and Tennis Clubs, Prestonfield Golf Club and the Commonwealth Pool. The area is popular with families, falling into the catchment area for Preston Street and St Peter’s Primary schools and James Gillespie High; with private schooling options nearby including George Watson’s College, George Heriot’s and Merchiston Castle School.
