This charming and unique detached stone-built period property offers deceptively spacious accommodation over two floors within the sought-after Murrayfield Conservation Area. Blending period character with practical modern living, the house boasts generous proportions, a superb open-plan living and dining space, and the added bonus of a garage with a versatile floored loft room, perfect as a home gym or office.

The welcoming hallway, with windows to the front and rear, provides excellent storage including a cupboard beneath the stairs. The spacious reception/dining room is a striking space with triple windows overlooking the garden, featuring an exposed stone wall, multi-fuel stove, and access to the garden through a double glazed door. A well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room offers shaker-style wall and base units, a Rangemaster cooker, integrated slimline dishwasher and washer/dryer, and has direct garden access. Completing the ground floor is a shower room with white suite and ceramic tiling. Upstairs, there is a wide landing with built-in storage cupboard also housing the combi boiler. The principal bedroom features extensive fitted wardrobes and an adjoining dressing room with wash hand basin, offering scope to create an en-suite if desired, subject to the usual consents. A further double bedroom with feature fireplace and a third double currently used as a home office provide flexible family living. The family bathroom, with contemporary white suite and tiling to dado level, completes the first floor. Benefits include gas central heating from a Worcester combi boiler and secondary glazing to the first floor windows.

Externally, the property enjoys a private, enclosed courtyard garden ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining, with cobbled and paved areas, raised beds, and a sheltered log store. A gate provides access to a shared courtyard where the property’s garage is located directly opposite. The garage, positioned at the end of a terrace of four, has an up-and-over door and a fixed ladder stair leading to a fully floored loft room with timber flooring and large double glazed Velux window – an excellent home gym or office space. There is a shared parking space for one car in the communal courtyard and ample on-street parking is also available.
