Description
Commanding a striking elevated position enjoying far-reaching panoramic views, Northfield is situated on the edge of the much sought-after and picturesque conservation village of Balerno that sits in the shadow of the majestic Pentland Hills. Arranged over three levels, the property retains a wealth of period charm including original fireplaces, sash and case windows, and a servant bell call system. The architect added several unique design features including carved monogrammed datestone plaque and the Portuguese tiled feature of Madonna della Catena above the front door, a hidden panelled cupboard in the drawing room, and the grape motifs that decorate the exterior drainpipes. Of particular design note is the barrel-vaulted wood-panelled drawing room that spans the full length of the house.
The property is close to good local schooling, plus many Edinburgh independent schools provide private transport to and from Balerno. Northfield lies within a short distance from Curriehill train station which runs regular services into Edinburgh’s city centre. The City Bypass is easily accessible and links that connect to Edinburgh International Airport and Central Scotland’s main motorways network.
