Set on Redford Road in Colinton, this three-bedroom semi-detached home offers comfortable, well-presented living for a growing family. The principal room and bedrooms are bright and welcoming, with a modern fitted kitchen and direct garden access creating an easy flow for daily life and entertaining. A south-facing front garden provides pleasant outdoor space and good natural light.
Practical features include granted planning permission for a full loft extension to add bedrooms and a bathroom — a clear opportunity to increase space and value. The property has a single family bathroom currently and on-street parking only. Energy performance is fair (EPC C) and council tax sits in band E (above average), which buyers should factor into running costs.
The house is well placed for green spaces and local amenities — Water of Leith, Colinton Mains Park and nearby leisure facilities are all within easy reach. Public transport links serve the city centre, universities and the airport. Note the wider area is classified as deprived and the immediate neighbourhood is mixed; this may influence resale dynamics and local services.
Overall, the property suits families looking for a solid, move-in-ready home with sensible improvement potential via the approved loft extension. It will particularly appeal to buyers who value outdoor space and the option to create additional bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs.
