12 Stanley Road, Trinity, Edinburgh, EH6 4SJ

Exceptional four-bedroom semi-detached Victorian villa in the highly sought-after area of Trinity.

CLOSING DATE FRIDAY 8TH AUGUST AT 12PM

Twelve Stanley Road is an exceptional four-bedroom semi-detached Victorian villa, distinguished by its double bay windows to both the front and side, and situated in the highly sought-after residential enclave of Trinity. This elegant home seamlessly blends contemporary interior design with beautifully preserved period features, including ornate cornicing and working shutters in all rooms. The property has been fully upgraded and offers a sophisticated and spacious living environment throughout. Set within generous and mature gardens to the front, side, and rear, the plot extends along Derby Street and wraps around the home, providing a rare sense of space and privacy. Additionally, there is potential, subject to the necessary planning consents to replace the existing carport with a garage and off-street parking.

Internally, the accommodation is bright, generously proportioned, and finished to an exceptional standard. A large and welcoming vestibule, adorned with striking floor tiles, leads to the main hallway, where solid oak flooring flows seamlessly throughout the entire ground floor. The hall benefits from a large under-stair storage cupboard and an added shelved press. To the front, the elegant sitting room features a large bay window, intricate cornicing, and two traditional shelved press cupboards. To the rear, the impressive Scandinavian-style kitchen/dining room enjoys a west-facing bay window, central island, Corian work surfaces, and high-quality fitted cabinetry. French doors from the kitchen and a separate utility room provide direct access to the rear garden. A stylish contemporary shower room and a well-proportioned study complete the ground floor. An elegant stone staircase, flooded with natural light from a large overhead skylight, leads to the first floor. The landing offers further storage with a shelved cupboard. There are four generously sized bedrooms, two of which feature bay windows and ornate cornicing. The principal bathroom is beautifully appointed with hand-crafted tiles and high-quality fittings. An additional shower room completes the first floor. A loft space is also available, accessed via a pull-down ladder.

Externally, the beautifully maintained gardens extend to the front, side, and rear, offering a tranquil setting and excellent sun exposure throughout the day, thanks to the south and west-facing orientation. The kitchen and utility room both offer direct access to the rear garden, ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining. On-street parking is readily available on both Stanley Road and Derby Street. The property also benefits from an existing carport/garage accessed via gates on Derby Street, although there is scope to replace the garage and gates subject to planning consent. The property is warmed by gas central heating and benefits from double glazed sash & case windows.
