Welcome To 47 Durham Road South, Edinburgh

Enjoying a leafy residential address where the No. 4 bus stops adjacent to the house and gets you into the centre of Edinburgh in 30 mins, this semi-detached house is ideally suited to contemporary family living, boasting three double bedrooms, an open-plan reception room and kitchen flowing out to a secure rear garden, and convenient garage and driveway parking, all set on a good-sized corner plot. The interiors enjoy abundant natural light with a tasteful decorative finish and a useful attic room, that could be developed into further accommodation subject to planning permissions.

Take a Look Around

A bright porch provides a practical entrance, flowing into the heart of the home – the spacious dual-aspect living and dining room, open to the kitchen, with double access points to the garden creating effortless indoor-outdoor living. Crisp white décor and painted rustic floorboards add to the space’s welcoming airy ambience. Also appointed in simple white, the modern kitchen features fitted units and workspace, offset by metro tiling and equipped with an integarted gas hob, oven and hood, an undercounter fridge, and plumbing for a dishwasher. The attached garage provides plumbed space for additional appliances.

Head On Up

Upstairs, a central landing leads to three double bedrooms, all enhanced by stylish oak-inspired flooring. The principal bedroom is exceptionally spacious, spanning the full depth of the house and illuminated by double windows fitted with bespoke shutters – an attractive feature also found in the reception room. Completing the first floor is a bright bathroom, styled in minimalist white and complete with a shower-over-bath.

A skylit, carpeted attic room (with hatch access from Bedroom 3) provides valuable storage and, if developed with the correct permissions, could become a fourth bedroom or extra living space.

Tour The Grounds

The large rear garden is securely fenced and surrounded by leafy greenery, adding a sense of privacy. It is a delightful space for family fun and summer parties, complete with a neat lawn, seating deck, and shed.

The front of this appealing corner plot is gravelled and paved, with a driveway leading to the attached single garage.

The Details

The sale includes all fitted flooring, window coverings, light fittings, and kitchen appliances. Wired-in TV in the reception room is available by separate negotiation.
