Description

An immaculately presented five bedroom detached villa, 15 Scald Law Drive is located on a tranquil corner site on the prestigious Miller Homes Polofields Development. The contemporary-styled home offers exceptional open-plan living and entertaining spaces featuring high-specification fixtures and fittings throughout.

The welcoming entrance hall offers a generous space for entertaining as well as giving access to the principal accommodation, and from where the stair rises to the upper level. The sitting room is a particularly bright and elegant room, and leads to the west facing conservatory. The beautifully presented kitchen is open to the living and dining rooms, while there is also a utility room and home office situated off the kitchen area. From here there are doors opening to the beautiful paved terrace to the rear of the house, ideal for eating outside.

The bedroom accommodation is situated on the first floor. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious and has a delightful outlook and plenty of natural light. There is an en suite shower room, while bedrooms two and three share a Jack and Jill bathroom. There are two further bedrooms which are serviced by the family bathroom.

To the side of the house there is a generous double garage, which is integrated and can be accessed from inside also. To the front of the garage there is off-street parking for a couple of vehicles also. The garden has been largely paved to create a superb terrace which is ideal for external dining and enjoying the sunshine.

The Polofields development is accessed at the top of Dreghorn Loan, with a long sweeping drive that leads to beech tree-lined streets named after the nearby Pentland Hills. The highly desirable development is situated in a safe and secure environment bordered by mature woodland and incorporates an outdoor fitness circuit and children’s play park.

Location

The property is situated in the highly desirable residential suburb of Colinton, set within the exclusive Polofields development by Miller Homes, just under five miles southwest of Edinburgh city centre.

The historic village is charming, with specialty shops, a chemist, post office, library, a Co-op store, several cafes and restaurants, two local churches and Colinton Tennis Club.

The Water of Leith walkway and cycle path are easily accessible as are the many paths and hiking trails in the spectacular Pentland Hills Regional Park. There are plenty of leisure facilities in the vicinity such as Craiglockhart Leisure and Tennis Centre, Swanston and Mortonhall golf courses and Midlothian Ski Centre at Hillend.

The area is also well catered for in terms of superstores, with a Tesco superstore just a short drive away with larger retail parks at The Gyle, Straiton and Hermiston Gait within easy reach.

The area is well served with local schooling at Bonaly Primary, Colinton Primary, Firrhill High School, while private schooling options are available nearby at Merchiston Castle School and George Watson’s College and George Heriots College.

The property lies a short drive from the City ByPass allowing easy access to Edinburgh Airport and connections to all the main routes across Scotland with the M8 to Glasgow, the M90 motorway to the north and the A1 to East Lothian.

It is well served by public transport with the number 10 bus running from Polofields to the city centre with its entertainment and financial districts, world-class museums and historic attractions. The designer stores of Multrees Walk, Harvey Nichols and John Lewis department stores and the new St James Quarter retail, leisure and residential development (opening this year) can all be found in the city centre.
