Property Description
With an enviable position, set back from the tree-lined road, 34 Ravelston Dykes is a charming four-bedroom detached villa located in the highly sought-after residential neighbourhood of Ravelston within walking distance of several well-regarded schools. This handsome family home retains many of its original features, providing a wealth of character and charm, whilst now requiring some modernisation to realise its full potential.
Approached via its wide driveway, affording parking for multiple vehicles and a mature front garden, the front door opens to an entrance vestibule leading to a spacious hallway. The ground floor is host to a comfortable family room with access to decking area and rear garden, a lounge bathed in natural light through its large bay window, with an interconnecting folding door to the formal dining room with a door to the decking area. There is a fully equipped dining kitchen with integrated appliances, and a useful utility room which also has a rear door providing access to the garden and large lower ground storeroom/workshop. From the hall there is a shower room, a coat cupboard, and a large under-stair storage cupboard. On the first floor is the principal bedroom with an ensuite bath and shower room, three further generously proportioned double bedrooms, family bathroom with Jacuzzi bath, and linen cupboard. Accessed by ladder from the spacious upstairs landing is a large fully floored attic space.
Externally, the property benefits from mature front garden with tandem garage; to the rear is a large, enclosed landscaped garden laid to lawn, flower borders, and raised vegetable beds, with a serviced greenhouse. The rear garden is accessed through the family room, dining room, or utility room. The decked terrace is ideal for al fresco dining and endless entertaining. Lying just over a mile from the West End, the property is well placed for transport links from Haymarket Station whilst Edinburgh International Airport and the city centre are both within easy reach by car and bus.
