Upstairs are two double bedrooms with built-in storage and a partially-tiled bathroom with an over-bath shower. Practical features include gas central heating, double glazing, attic access and an allocated off-street parking space.
The property sits in a popular residential area close to shops, bus links and local leisure facilities, making it well placed for first-time buyers or a small family seeking straightforward access to transport. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, supporting home working and connectivity. A communal rear garden gives private outdoor space without the upkeep of a sole garden.

The house is modest in size (circa 612 sq ft) and while well maintained it offers clear potential for cosmetic improvement or further modernisation to increase value. Council Tax is moderate (Band D). Overall this is an economical, practical home for someone seeking an affordable first step in Edinburgh with ready access to amenities and transport.
