A traditional four-bedroom detached house in Liberton with generous accommodation spread over three floors, offering an abundance of space and high-quality interiors, as well as ample private parking and a family-friendly rear garden with a south-facing aspect.

Flanked by public parks near the Hermitage of Braid and Blackford Hill Nature Reserve, this exclusive detached house is an extended four-bedroom residence, which enjoys a highly sought-after setting in popular Liberton.

It offers a wealth of versatile accommodation, and is brought to market in outstanding decorative order, pairing attractive modern styling with premium finishings and well-retained period features. It further boasts two spacious reception rooms, a stunning kitchen and bathroom (both recently installed within the last 18 months) and a ground floor shower room.

Stepping into the home, a traditional vestibule offers a lovely welcome, with a glazed door (coloured by stained-glass rose motifs) leading through to a central hall with storage. Immediately, the high standards of the interiors are apparent, providing a hint of what to expect.

To the right of the hall, the living room has an elegant aesthetic, continuing the hall’s neutral palette and Karndean floor (found throughout most of the ground level). It provides buyers with an appealing blank canvas, whilst also heightening a minimalist style and an airy ambience. The room is fronted by a bay window for lots of natural light, and it is framed by a magnificent feature fireplace set between two glazed display recesses. A neat picture rail finishes the sumptuous space.

Next door, the dining room is equally generous in its dimensions, offering ample floorspace for a table and chairs and additional comfy seating. It enjoys on-trend decoration with white detailing, and sets the ideal tone for family meals and sociable dinner parties. A handsome feature fireplace frames the room, coming flanked by chic built-in display cabinets for storing cups, plates and other dining wares. Meanwhile, French doors allow a seamless transition into the rear garden for summer barbecues.

Newly-installed, the Howdens kitchen (with high end pull outs) openly extends from the dining room for convenience. It immediately catches the eye with its stylish Shaker-inspired design and complementary décor. Suave and sophisticated, it features a generous range of white cabinets and sweeping Mistral worksurfaces that seamlessly blend with the easy-clean splashbacks.

It is a very fashionable look, one enhanced by neat bottle storage, ambient plinth lighting, and a suite of high-end integrated appliances (five-burner gas hob, statement extractor hood, eye-level double oven, fridge/freezer, wine/drinks fridge, and dishwasher). A matching utility room is also openly connected to the kitchen, providing further storage and workspace, and an integrated full-size freezer.

The three main bedrooms are on the first floor, off a bright landing with storage and beautiful stained-glass windows.

The principal bedroom boasts the largest footprint, as well as a bay window, a press cupboard, and a decorative feature fireplace. The second bedroom has similar proportions and a south-facing garden aspect, whilst the third bedroom is to the front, offering flexibility of use and the ideal proportions for a home office, if preferred.

On the second floor, there is a fourth bedroom, which enjoys triple-aspect windows and walk-in storage. Currently, this space is arranged as a cinema room, showcasing the impressive versatility of the home

Ensuring comfort all year round, the property has gas central heating and doubleglazed windows throughout.

Externally, there is a colourful front garden, shielded by established hedgerows for privacy, and an adjacent driveway, which provides private parking for three vehicles.

To the fully-enclosed rear, there is a family-friendly garden that is beautifully landscaped with a manicured lawn and well-maintained patio areas for alfresco dining. The charming space has a suntrap, south-facing aspect, and it also includes a large and versatile garage, with a sheltered seating area and a store.
