This compact two-bedroom end-terrace offers practical, move-in-ready accommodation in Gilmerton, south of Edinburgh. Neutral décor, modern fixtures and a fitted kitchen make it suitable for first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-maintenance home with private outdoor space.
The ground floor features a bright living room with patio doors to the rear garden, plus a convenient downstairs WC. Upstairs are two double bedrooms (one with built-in storage) and a family bathroom. The property benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband/mobile connectivity.
Externally there are small private gardens to the front, side and rear with a decked area and summer house. The plot and internal floor area are modest (approximately 490 sq ft), so space is limited; off-street parking is constrained. The listing mentions views toward the Pentlands and Arthur’s Seat, though some summaries note no prominent long-distance views from the street.
Practical points to note: the home is freehold with a small annual factor fee (£14/month listed as £168/year). The area is described as very deprived, which may affect resale dynamics and tenant demand. Overall this is a straightforward, well-presented small family home or rental buy with modest scope for value uplift through minor modernisation.
