Summary - 51, RAE'S GARDENS, BONNYRIGG EH19 2DW
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Well-presented two-bed semi with large garden, garage and strong connectivity..
Two double bedrooms with built-in storage and floored attic access
This well-presented two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bonnyrigg offers a practical first step onto the property ladder or a manageable long-term home. The ground floor flows from a bright living room into a versatile second reception room (formerly a conservatory with a solid roof) and a modern galley kitchen with direct garden access. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms with built-in storage, a floored attic off the second bedroom, and a contemporary three-piece bathroom.
Outside, the plot is a standout for the price: a large rear garden, single garage and substantial workshop provide significant storage and hobby space, while a driveway gives private off-street parking and a neat front lawn enhances kerb appeal. Utilities and connectivity are strong here — freehold tenure, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal (full 5G coverage) suit remote working or streaming needs.
Buyers should note the wider context: the area is classified as very deprived with an "industrious hardship" wider-area descriptor. The house is mid-20th-century construction with pebble-dash exterior and average-sized rooms (approximately 850 sq ft), so those seeking high-end period detail or expansive living should expect straightforward, practical finishes rather than luxury fittings. There is only one bathroom and modest internal room sizes, although the attic and workshop help with storage.
At £200,000 this property offers considerable outdoor space, practical outbuildings and good connectivity for first-time buyers or investors wanting a low-maintenance, ready-to-live-in house with scope to personalise. The location provides local amenities and transport links, but prospective purchasers should weigh the neighbourhood deprivation indicators when considering long-term plans.
