A substantial five-bedroom detached house set on a generous plot in sought-after Colinton, offering flexible accommodation across two floors. The home features a large dual-aspect living room with fireplace, a generous kitchen/diner with island and French doors, a separate dining room and a ground-floor bedroom/study — useful for home working or multigenerational living. Outside there is a double garage, block-paved driveway and an expansive, partially walled rear garden with a heated garden office.
The property has been well maintained and presented in neutral tones, with timber double-glazed casement windows and gas central heating (boiler 2016). The principal bedroom includes a newly fitted ensuite and there is a contemporary family bathroom. The garden room with underfloor heating and the roomy garage add practical value for remote working and storage.
Practical considerations: the EPC is shown as D and council tax is described as quite expensive. The wider area information includes a mixed socioeconomic note (wider area comfortable suburbia, local area described as prospering countryside yet flagged as deprived in the supplied data), so buyers should check local services and particulars. Some updating or modernisation may suit buyers wanting to personalise finishes.
Well placed for schools, local shops, woodland walks and regular bus links into the city centre, this house will suit families seeking roomy accommodation, off-street parking and a private garden within commuting distance of central Edinburgh.
