Property description & features

  • Substantial detached home
  • Up to five double bedrooms available
  • Extensive, beautifully kept gardens

Closing Date Set- Friday 10th November at 12pm

Situated within a peaceful residential neighbourhood in the desirable village of Balerno, this is an extended, detached house which enjoys spacious and flexible accommodation with stunning garden grounds. Although well-maintained throughout, the property now requires some modernisation and redecoration but has the potential to be a fantastic home in a wonderful, family friendly location.

The property has been extended in the past, however, due to the size of the plot, there remains further potential to extend or reconfigure if desired by a new owner.

On the ground level, there are three public rooms which include a living room, adjoining dining room and a conservatory which leads out to the garden. There is also a versatile fifth bedroom which is currently used as a large office. The kitchen is situated to the rear of the property and is linked to a sizeable utility room which in turn, has access to the garage. A handy WC is also located on the ground floor. Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms and a shower room, plus access to a substantial loft which is partially boarded.

The extensive rear garden is a real highlight of this property. All fully enclosed and with excellent privacy, the gardens comprise a patio, neat lawn, mature trees including a productive apple tree, vegetable patch and fruit bushes. There is also a well-kept garden to front and access to the back garden is available around the side of the property.

There is a single garage with light, power and manual up and over door. The paved driveway is capable of accommodating up to two vehicles.

Gas central heating and double glazing have been fitted throughout.

Location

Nestled between the Pentland Hills and Water of Leith, the exclusive village of Balerno enjoys a feel of semi-rural charm, with easy access to city attractions. Surrounded by lush woodlands, and with rivers and reservoirs on your doorstep, it is hard to believe that Edinburgh city centre is only seven miles away! The area caters for everyday needs with services including a post office, mini supermarkets, restaurants, traditional pubs, a library, and the regular Balerno Farmers’ Market offers local, fresh produce. Balerno is renowned for its top-ranking primary and secondary schooling, and private education is a short drive away, closer to the city centre. The area enjoys superb recreational and sports facilities including Midlothian Snowsports Centre, Currie Rugby and Football Club, Balerno Tennis Club, horse riding at the Pentland Hills Trekking Centre, and nearby Dalmahoy Golf and Country Club with a luxury spa.

Extras

All blinds, curtains, light fittings, fitted flooring, integrated appliances and garden furniture are included in the sale price. Other items may be available by separate negotiation.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on October 26, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. 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: obtained from Ofcom on October 26, 2023

    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
