Situated on a planned suburban development in Newcraighall, this compact two-bedroom mid-terrace offers straightforward, low-maintenance living with useful outdoor space. The open-plan ground floor flows through French doors to an enclosed rear garden with a timber sun deck and built-in fire pit, providing a pleasant spot for socialising or relaxing.
Internally the home is efficiently laid out: a welcoming hallway with a WC leads to a living/dining area open to a well-equipped kitchen and a handy utility cupboard. Two double bedrooms both include fitted storage and the bathroom features a contemporary white suite with a shower-over-bath. Gas central heating and double glazing give reliable comfort and energy performance.
Important selling factors to note: the property is sold under the Golden Share scheme — purchasers own 100% but resale price is fixed at 80% of open market value, and eligibility evidence is required. The development is factored at approx. £60 per quarter to cover common-area upkeep. The overall footprint and garden are small, so this house suits buyers seeking a compact, efficient home rather than expansive living space.
This property will appeal to first-time buyers seeking an affordable step onto the Edinburgh market or buy-to-let investors looking for a low-maintenance asset in a suburb with good transport links. Be aware the wider area records high deprivation and the immediate setting is a mixed residential estate; viewings will help assess whether the location and Golden Share conditions meet your needs.
