* Closing Date Tuesday 6th May 12:00pm* Located in the Braid Hills area of Edinburgh, this much loved detached family home is a property brimming with potential in a sought-after location. Set on a generous corner plot, the house has been cherished over the years and is well presented throughout, while still offering scope for modernisation to suit contemporary tastes.

The accommodation is spacious and versatile, ideal for growing families or those looking to create a long-term home. While the interiors are in good order, there is ample opportunity to refresh and redesign to truly make the space your own.

A standout feature of this property is the substantial triple garage – an exceptional asset that presents excellent potential for conversion, whether as a home office, studio, or additional living accommodation (subject to the necessary permissions).

The living room is especially impressive, extending the full length of the property and benefiting from abundant natural light throughout the day. Likewise, the kitchen and its adjoining dining area stretch from front to back, creating an ideal setting for socialising and offering direct access to the side garden.

Upstairs, you'll find four generously proportioned double bedrooms, complemented by a large bathroom featuring a four-piece suite.

Gardens wrap around the side and front of the property, off the living room is a secluded patio area which is a real suntrap.

With its combination of charm, space, and future potential, this home is perfect for buyers seeking to settle in one of Edinburgh’s most attractive residential areas, close to excellent schools, local amenities, and green spaces.
