Avon Road is a quiet cul de sac in the charming district of Barnton, at the mouth of the River Almond and just four miles northwest of Edinburgh's city centre. Built in the mid twentieth century, this attractive three bedroom home features rendered exterior walls beneath a classic Rosemary clay tiled roof. The property includes an attached single garage and enjoys an extensive, beautifully maintained garden, complete with a summer house and a brick paved driveway.

The front door opens into a vestibule leading through to the hall that features a tiled floor and enjoys generous natural light, further enhanced by a stair window. To the rear of the house, the bay windowed family room overlooks the garden and offers excellent flexibility, it would also serve as an ideal dining room if preferred. The living room benefits from a southwest facing picture window, a lit alcove, and a stone mantelpiece and hearth. Adjoining the sitting room is a spacious, double glazed conservatory with French windows opening onto the back garden and an additional single door to the side. Currently used as the dining room, it offers generous space and comfortably accommodates a dining table for eight. Adjoining the conservatory, the pantry that houses the combi-boiler, opens into the bright kitchen that has a second entrance from the hall. Overlooking the front of the property, the kitchen has cream-painted wall and base units, polished dark granite work surfaces with downlighting, and a selection of both integrated and slot in appliances. A cloakroom, fitted with a basin set into a vanity unit and a lavatory, completes the ground floor accommodation.

The first-floor landing is naturally lit and offers excellent storage, including a walk in store cupboard and two additional built in cupboards. The spacious, dual aspect principal bedroom has its own dressing room, both spaces are fitted with double built in wardrobes with mirrored sliding doors, as well as an en-suite shower room, incorporating a four piece suite and a heated towel rail. A second dual aspect double bedroom is generously and comfortably sized, while a further bedroom offers an alternative use as an ideal home office. Finally, the naturally lit bathroom features a three piece suite with the basin cradled in a vanity unit and a shower over the bath.

The brick paved driveway, to the front of the house, has two entrances, both allowing for easy parking and one giving access to the garage (which is partially used as a gym). Set into the middle of the driveway is a well- established shrubbery. Behind the house there is a large south westerly facing garden, enclosed by a beech hedge, that is, for the most part, lawned, with bushes, shrubs planted around the periphery and raised vegetable patch. The house opens onto a generous paved terrace that forms a natural divide from the lawns, creating an ideal space for al fresco dining. At one end, a traditional summer house offers a peaceful spot to enjoy the garden from a sheltered vantage point and finally, the greenhouse neatly tucked in the far corner.
