Description

Nestled in the ever-popular Willowbrae district, this traditional upper villa offers generous proportions, flexible accommodation, and a private garden – all within walking distance of Holyrood Park and Portobello. With delightful period details and versatile living space, the property presents an ideal opportunity for buyers seeking a home with character that they can modernise and make their own.

Set behind a private entrance, the flat occupies the entire first floor of a handsome stone-built property. Internally, it offers the scale and ceiling heights typical of its era, along with original features including ornate cornicing, a ceiling frieze, and timber detailing. While well maintained, the interiors now offer scope for thoughtful upgrades throughout.

The main living space is a beautifully proportioned bay-windowed reception room, filled with natural light and complemented by a handsome fireplace and decorative cornice work. The spacious dining kitchen, positioned to the rear of the property, features a stable door to the garden and direct views to Arthur's Seat.

The layout currently includes two bedrooms – a generous principal room with green outlooks over Willowbrae Bowling Club and a second box bedroom with skylight and built-in storage – though the living room could be reconfigured as an alternative/additional bedroom if desired. The bathroom, while bright and functional, offers an excellent footprint for reconfiguration or upgrading to contemporary standards.

Externally, the property enjoys a private rear garden laid to lawn and accessed via a traditional spiral staircase. There is ample on-street parking available on Baronscourt Terrace, with no restrictions.
