Main-door, single-storey end-terrace retirement villa
Quiet, single-story living in a well-kept, main-door retirement villa in Balerno. This end-terrace one-bedroom home sits in a small exclusive cul-de-sac and offers an accessible layout, private front garden, and a rear garden with direct kitchen access — ideal for low-maintenance outdoor enjoyment.
Inside, the accommodation is presented in neutral tones with good built-in storage, an attic, double glazing and a modern fitted kitchen and shower room. The living room benefits from twin windows that bring in natural light; the double bedroom includes mirrored built-in wardrobes. Off-street residential parking and communal maintained grounds add convenience and peace of mind.
Practical considerations: heating is electric, broadband speeds are average, and there is an annual factor/service charge of approximately £960 (c. £80 pcm) covering communal maintenance and buildings insurance. Buyers must be over 60 and capable of independent living — the development is specifically for retirement occupancy.
This freehold property suits a downsizer seeking a low-upkeep home close to Balerno village amenities and the Pentland countryside. It offers comfortable, ready-to-move-into accommodation with straightforward potential for further personalisation rather than major refurbishment.
