Summary - THE ALDER, RIVERSIDE ROAD, EDINBURGH, EH30 9TP EH30 9TP
5 bed 2 bath Detached Villa
Contemporary family home with garden and garage near countryside.
Newly refurbished five-bedroom detached villa, turn-key condition
Styled around original mid-century proportions, this newly refurbished five-bedroom detached villa offers turn-key family living with generous indoor and outdoor space. Upgrades include a new roof, triple-glazed windows, new gas central heating, and modern kitchens and bathrooms, so major maintenance is largely complete. The principal bedroom has an en-suite; a flexible ground-floor double serves well as a home office or guest room with French doors to the garden.
Sited in an elevated position within Craigiehall Meadows, the house enjoys countryside views front and rear and sits within substantial, private lawned gardens ready for landscaping or family use. Practical features include a private driveway, single garage and separate utility room for everyday convenience. The layout spans two floors and totals about 1,776 sq ft — an average-sized family home with good circulation and eleven rooms overall.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow, council tax is described as expensive, and the wider neighbourhood is classified as ageing and relatively deprived. There is a modest factored charge (approx. £60 pcm / £720 annually) covering communal roads, grounds and lighting. These factors may affect some buyers’ priorities but sit alongside clear long-term benefits like recent full refurbishment and modern energy-saving glazing.
