Summary - 3, FAIRBAIRN STREET, BALERNO EH14 7FG
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Large gardens and garage, ideal for growing families.
Five double bedrooms, two with en suites and fitted wardrobes
Set on a generous plot in sought-after Balerno, this five-bedroom detached home is arranged over two floors and built for family living and entertaining. The ground floor centres on a bright open-plan dining kitchen with appliances and bi-fold doors to the southwest-facing garden, alongside a formal dining room, family room and living room with French doors. Practical spaces include a utility room, cloakroom and extensive storage throughout.
Upstairs the accommodation includes two double principal bedrooms with fitted wardrobes and en suites, plus three further bedrooms (two with wardrobes) and a four-piece family bathroom. The layout suits multi-generational families or those needing a home office and hobby space. Extras that add convenience are the double garage with electric door and EV charging point, double driveway and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
The house benefits from both gas central heating and an air-source heat pump, double glazing and an alarm system. The extensive, child-friendly rear garden and paved front drive make outdoor family life straightforward in this semi-rural location within easy commuting distance of Edinburgh.
Notable practical considerations: council tax is very expensive for this property, and the wider area has been classified as deprived despite local strengths such as good schools and excellent outdoor amenities. Prospective buyers should note these factors alongside the property’s size, parking and low flood risk when assessing value.
