Occupying a prominent corner plot on Morningside Road, this expansive Victorian semi-detached home delivers nearly 5,000 sq ft of flexible family accommodation across three floors. The house retains strong period character—high ceilings, bay windows, ornate cornicing—and is arranged around a grand entrance hall that leads to multiple formal and informal reception rooms, a large dining kitchen and a bright morning room. A private, east-facing rear garden with decked terrace and a substantial detached triple garage accessed from Greenhill Park add rare outdoor and parking benefits for the area.
The layout suits a large or multigenerational family: seven bedrooms across the first and second floors, including a principal suite with en suite, plus three bathrooms in total. The north wing provides useful separate space for guests, staff or flexible home-working, while two upper-level rooms are currently used as bespoke studies. Practical features include a large utility room, ground-floor WC, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband—useful for remote working and family connectivity.
Buyers should note a few important factual points. Council tax is very expensive for this property, and the listing data flags the wider area as deprived, which may affect perceptions despite the home’s central Morningside location and proximity to well-regarded schools and amenities. There are only three bathrooms for seven bedrooms, which may necessitate reconfiguration for larger household needs.
This freehold property presents a rare combination of scale, architectural character and practical parking in a sought-after city suburb. It will suit a large family seeking generous entertaining space, flexible accommodation and off-street parking, or anyone looking for a substantial period home with scope to personalise or adapt the internal layout.
