Description
4 Brunstane Road North is an outstanding large family home, located on a quiet street in the vibrant area of Portobello. The property enjoys off-road parking for several cars on a gated driveway, a front garden, a private sunny garden to the rear, and planning permission has been granted to redevelop the current accommodation. This is a rare opportunity and has great potential to be a very special family home just moments away from the waterfront at Portobello beach.
Upon entering the ground floor, there is a spacious and impressive wood panelled vestibule and hall area, boasting period tiled flooring, vaulted ceiling, and stained glass in the entrance doors and windows. There are two key public rooms on the ground floor; the sitting room, which overlooks the front of the property and has views of Portobello & Joppa Parish Church. This space enjoys ornate cornicing, feature fireplace and original wooden floors. Bay windows accentuate several rooms in the house beautifully and give these spaces a lovely feel. The dining room is located to the rear of the house and adjoins the current kitchen which is ripe for redevelopment. Three storage cupboards offer great additional space. This storey is completed by two large double bedrooms, a shower room and a windowed pantry.
The garden level comprises two double bedrooms overlooking the rear garden, a utility room, large garden store and a substantial basement area. The basement is currently being used as a bike store and gymnasium and has planning permission for redevelopment into an additional bedroom, wet room and gym.
The current owners have carried out various upgrades during their tenure including a complete overhaul of the roof, fully re-slated, and new main insulated flat roof, installation of four new Velux windows in the large loft area, including two balcony Velux's with a sea view. The loft has planning permission for conversion into a large office space. In addition, there are new gas and three-phase electricity supplies. Extensive work has been carried out to the grounds at the front and rear of the building.
Planning permission has been granted to modify and extend the house, which includes permission for a garden level kitchen dining room, additional bedroom, second wet room and large office. Plans for this can be found on the Edinburgh Council planning portal, reference number 23/03046/FUL. Plans have been created and submitted by Studio IMA
