Floor Plan
Ground Floor:
The house is entered via an attractive front door into a spacious main hall with period staircase. To the front, a sitting room with a bay window benefits from built-in storage cupboards and a press cupboard, providing a light, comfortable, and quiet space. To the rear is a stunning reception room with a central fireplace and two windows, including a bay window, which offers majestic views over the rear gardens, a sunny south-facing aspect, and vistas across the Water of Leith and beyond.
First Floor:
The master bedroom suite includes a good-sized dressing room and an en-suite bathroom, and also benefits from secondary glazing. To the rear, two further double bedrooms are quietly located away from the street and overlook the gardens, enjoying a peaceful aspect. A shower room completes the accommodation on this floor.
Garden Level:
A further double bedroom to the front features built-in storage cupboards and an en-suite bathroom. The kitchen is well fitted with integrated appliances and has a door stepping down onto a gorgeous deck, slightly raised above the lawned garden - perfect for alfresco dining. To the rear, a bright dining room with bay window and patio doors also steps down onto the deck. Completing this level are a wine cellar and a small vestibule leading to a porch, offering an additional entrance at this level.
Garden & Views:
The rear garden is the property’s pièce de résistance. With a sunny south-facing aspect, it is an idyllic spot for relaxing, entertaining, or dining al fresco. Beyond the garden, the vista stretches over the Water of Leith, where at the right time of year the embankment comes alive with lush greenery and bursts of colour, creating a serene and unexpectedly natural panorama in the heart of the city. This garden and view offer a sense of tranquillity and escape that is rare in a central location, making it feel almost like a hidden countryside retreat.
