To the rear is a further bedroom or playroom, together with a separate shower room and WC. A modern, recently fitted kitchen with a full range of integrated appliances opens via bi-folding doors onto an attractive outdoor terrace and the private rear garden, creating an excellent indoor-outdoor flow. This level is completed by a dedicated laundry area and additional store cupboards.

A welcoming reception hall leads to an elegant bay-windowed sitting room with a central fireplace, creating a bright and inviting formal living space. To the rear of the house is a hugely impressive family room featuring a further fireplace and opening onto a fully enclosed sunroom and a covered balcony, both enjoying spectacular views over the greenery of the Water of Leith. A centrally located utility/washroom completes the ground floor accommodation.
First Floor
On the first floor, a stunning double bedroom with a curved feature window opens onto a balcony with spectacular views over the Water of Leith, surrounding greenery, and the private rear garden. To the front of the property are two further characterful double bedrooms. A useful store beneath the stairs and a spacious family bathroom with separate shower complete the accommodation on this level.
Attic Level
