Description
Skye House is a stunning, modern, detached family home in the sought after village of Reston which is becoming an increasingly popular location for Edinburgh commuters with a new train station and proximity to the A1 providing excellent transport links north and south. Built in 2005 the property makes for a fantastic family home with contemporary accommodation including four double bedrooms and three reception rooms.

The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hallway, with doors leading to a shower room and a utility room ideal for meeting the needs of the most demanding family with a Belfast sink, storage units and room for a washing machine. The fully fitted kitchen has wooden shaker style units with integrated appliances and are complemented by sleek granite worktops incorporating a breakfast bar. The kitchen opens into the adjoining sitting room, offering a superb family living space with a cosy multi fuel stove and a glazed door leading out to the garden. At the heart of this home is a wonderful dining room, ideal for entertaining and flooded with light from the large windows and French windows which open out onto a patio area for al fresco entertaining. Glazed double doors lead off the dining room to a large living room with feature open fireplace and with large windows on three sides, this is a room that can be enjoyed at any time of day. With its own entrance straight off the garden, this is a lovely room to sit and relax in, looking out over the garden beyond.

Upstairs the light and airy galleried landing would be a perfect space for home working or as a games area for children and leads to the principal bedroom suite, with fitted wardrobes and a modern en-suite shower room with hand basin, WC and shower cubicle. Three further bedrooms are all light, airy and spacious and the family bathroom has contemporary fittings with a luxurious jacuzzi corner bath, separate shower cubicle, WC and hand basin.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
