Property description
The obvious feature is the striking view of the Pentland Hills that you can enjoy from the picture windows in the lounge and the kitchen; the one that is hidden is the fully floored and very large attic space that has its own velux window and built-in cupboards that add to the fantastic storage that it naturally provides. Those looking to follow in the footsteps of Messrs Waterman or Stewart on even a more modest scale will have plenty of room to get that layout started…
The entrance door opens to a staircase that takes you…upstairs. Off the hallway to the left are the bathroom and the lounge and the kitchen, to the right is the second bedroom and straight ahead is the main sleeping apartment. Reaching the attic space does require a degree of self-belief when it comes to the climbing of ladders but the effort is well worth it - and the means of getting to and from it in the second bedroom will be remaining in the property.
A driveway allows for off street parking and there is also a private garden to the rear.
All in all, the property is perfect for those looking to set up home together for the first time and who like to include a bit of future proofing against the arrival of tiny feet - or the investor purchaser who can see the very obvious letting potential.
Where to go food shopping doesn't require too much thought: The Colinton Mains Tesco superstore is only a short walk away. Down the street the other way, you will find a USave convenience store with post office services, a pharmacy and a barber shop, as well as a take away. Other supermarkets are, of course, available. An Aldi and the Swanston Morrisons are only a few minutes in the car.
For outdoor activities, the Midlothian Snowsports Centre at Hillend is only a short drive away and for those who hope that their drives are just the right length, there are a number of golf courses within easy reach. The Pentland Hills can also be easily reached by car and the City Bypass gives access to East Lothian and its beaches (and hills and golf courses), as well as the central belt, whether for work or leisure purposes.
The property is conveniently located for local primary schools, as well as Firrhill High School and (buy-to-let investors take note), Napier University.
There is a frequent bus service to and from the city centre, but it also possible to travel in this way to the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary and the airport.
