24 Andrew Balfour Grove, Newcraighall, EH21 8RD

Enjoying a peaceful residential setting in the well-connected suburb of Newcraighall, this modern four-bedroom detached house is perfectly designed for busy family living, complete with a choice of bath and shower rooms, generous living space including an impressive open-plan kitchen/family/dining room opening onto an enclosed easy-care garden, and excellent private parking with a driveway and double garage.

Situated less than five miles from the heart of the capital, the property is well placed for easy access to local bus and rail links, well-regarded schools, and excellent shopping at neighbouring Fort Kinnaird Retail Park and the East Lothian coastal town of Musselburgh.

The home is beautifully presented in a stylish contemporary palette of crisp white and soft grey tones, while the gardens are equally well maintained, enjoying a private leafy outlook to the rear.

The interiors are instantly inviting as you step into the hall, featuring understairs storage, a bright WC cloakroom, comfortably carpeted stairs, and large-format glossy cream floor tiles that continue throughout the ground floor, creating a cohesive and easy-care finish.

In the living room, a generous window fills the space with natural light, while crisp white decor and glossy tiled flooring enhance its bright contemporary feel. The well-proportioned footprint allows plenty of flexibility for different furniture arrangements.

Additionally, a bright ground-floor study provides a quiet space for home working and could also serve as a family den, playroom, or occasional bedroom.

Spanning the full rear elevation, with French doors opening onto the garden, the kitchen is open plan to generous dining and family areas, creating a fabulous space for everyday family life and socialising with guests.

The stylish oak-toned kitchen features extensive cabinetry with integrated plinth lighting, spacious work surfaces, and glossy subway tiling. Sleek integrated appliances include a dishwasher, double wall oven, and gas hob with a chimney-style hood.

An openly adjoining utility room is appointed in a coordinating style and houses an American-style fridge freezer, freestanding washing machine, and tumble dryer, as well as providing handy external access.

The principal suite is located on the first floor, along with the other bedrooms, all reached from a central landing with built-in storage, loft access, and soft grey carpeting continuing throughout.

The principal bedroom enjoys the luxury and convenience of a large mirrored fitted wardrobe, alongside a bright, neutrally styled en-suite shower room featuring vanity storage and a heated towel rail.

The remaining three bedrooms are all doubles, with two benefiting from a private rear outlook over the garden. Their spacious proportions offer excellent flexibility for family members and guests, with one currently arranged as a home office.

In addition to the downstairs WC and en-suite shower room, a first-floor bathroom provides extra everyday convenience. Bright and stylishly tiled, it features useful vanity storage and a bath with a contemporary shower overhead, distinguished by a broad rectangular head and sculptural curved chrome riser.

Bordered by mature greenery and enclosed by fencing, the west-facing rear garden is an attractive, secure space for relaxation, children's play, and summer entertaining. A generous lawn is complemented by a paved terrace, a secluded corner deck, and a larger raised deck providing ample space for outdoor dining and lounging.

A further neat lawn attractively fronts the property.

A driveway and detached double garage provide ample private parking and valuable additional storage.
