Set within the heart of Edinburgh’s sought-after south side, Yew Tree Cottage offers a rare opportunity to acquire an impressive 3–4 bedroom detached bungalow extending to over 2,000 sq ft. Quietly positioned in Church Hill, the property combines a peaceful setting with excellent convenience and is further enhanced by a large private garden, substantial off-street parking, and an integrated garage. The home will appeal to a wide range of purchasers, including upsizing families, downsizers, and those seeking a long-term residence.
The property is accessed via a welcoming vestibule leading into a central hallway, which provides a natural flow throughout the accommodation. A beautifully proportioned, tiered sitting room lies at the heart of the home, featuring a gas fireplace and direct access to the front garden, creating a bright and inviting space ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Adjacent to the sitting room is a well-proportioned dining room, which also enjoys garden access and sits next to the generously sized kitchen, which benefits from ample workspace and storage, pleasant views over the garden, and access to the rear of the property.
The accommodation comprises three double bedrooms, with flexibility to form a fourth double bedroom, home office, or family room if required. The impressive principal bedroom benefits from a fully fitted dressing area and an ensuite shower room. A further double bedroom on this side of the property is served by a family bathroom, as well as the flexible bedroom/ office. On the opposite side of the house, a further double bedroom with its own ensuite shower room provides an ideal private space for guests or multi-generational living.
Additionally, the property benefits from a charming summer house, complete with heating and lighting, offering a peaceful retreat from which to enjoy views over the garden throughout the year.
Externally, the property is surrounded by a large, mature private garden and decking area, providing excellent privacy and a tranquil outdoor environment. Off-street parking is available for multiple vehicles, and the integrated garage offers secure storage, completing this highly desirable home.
