Two double bedrooms with generous proportions
Set a short drive from the city bypass and well served by regular buses, this bright upper villa offers practical family living in Colinton Mains. The apartment includes two generous double bedrooms, a large lounge/dining room and a fully floored attic with Velux — useful storage or scope for conversion (subject to consents).
Outside there is off-street parking (driveway space for up to three cars) and a rear/side garden that catches the evening sun. The property is double-glazed and heated by gas central heating, reducing immediate running-cost worries. The asking price is set £5,000 under the Home Report value, giving clear short-term value.
The location is a strong draw for families and buyers seeking good school options: several highly regarded independent and state schools are nearby. Local shops, sports facilities and regular bus routes to the city centre and airport are all within easy reach, making daily life convenient.
Buyers should note the home sits within an area classed as very deprived, which can affect local services and resale comparables. Accommodation is average-sized (approx. 678 sq ft) with a single family bathroom, so growing families may find space limited long-term. The property is presented in good order but offers straightforward potential for cosmetic updating to personalise.
