Introduction
Detached house in the South Gyle area of the city offering five bedrooms, two reception rooms, a breakfasting kitchen, and two bathrooms (plus a separate WC), as well as a spacious garden, an attached single garage, and a private double driveway.
Representing an ideal family home in South Gyle, with two floors of flexible accommodation, this five-bedroom, two-bathroom detached house is brought to market in a true move-in condition with attractive, modern interiors. The home enjoys enviable close proximity to excellent amenities, many of which are within walking distance, including The Gyle Shopping Centre, schools at primary and secondary levels including independent options, transport links (there is a train station a short walk away), and green space, with the heart of the city centre under six miles away and easily accessible by car or public transport.
Entrance - An attractive introduction to the home
An inviting hallway (with a useful two-piece WC) welcomes you into the home, immediately setting the tone for the interiors to follow with rich Amtico flooring, soft décor, and elegant accent wallpaper.
Reception rooms - Sociable living areas for everyday family life
The home has two reception rooms: a living room and a conservatory, connected via French doors that can be opened to create a sociable space or closed for private, separate areas. The living room offers a spacious footprint for a choice of lounge furniture layouts and it is elegantly decorated in neutral tones, enhanced by a feature wall and the same Amtico flooring as the hall. The adjoining conservatory is filled with natural light throughout the day and provides flexibility for use by the new owner, as well as affording access to the garden.
Kitchen - Well-appointed cooking zone with breakfast bar
The kitchen is equipped with a wide range of modern, wood-styled wall and base cabinets, spacious worktops, and stylish splashback tiling, whilst neatly integrated appliances comprise a double oven, a gas hob (with a splashback panel), an extractor hood, a fridge/freezer, and a dishwasher. A breakfast bar caters for morning coffee and casual dining, whilst an openly adjoined utility area offers space for laundry appliances, houses built-in storage, and affords external access.
Bedrooms - Five well-proportioned and flexible bedrooms
There are five double bedrooms in the property, with four on the first floor and one on the ground floor. The ground-floor bedroom is a flexible space that could alternatively be utilised as a formal dining room a children's play room, or a teenager's den, highlighting the versatility of the home. The first-floor principal bedroom is supplemented by a built-in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room, with one of the remaining bedrooms also featuring a built-in wardrobe. Bedroom five is currently being used as home office, ideal for those requiring a quiet space to work or study from home.
Bathrooms - Stylishly appointed en-suite and family bathroom
The principal bedroom's chicly tiled en-suite comprises a large enclosure with a rainfall showerhead and handset, a WC-suite, and a mirrored, wall-mounted vanity cabinet. Finally, a family bathroom completes the accommodation on offer and features a bath with an overhead shower and glazed screen, a pedestal basin, and a WC, all enveloped by attractive tiling.
The home is kept warm by gas central heating and benefits from double-glazed windows.
