Description
This is a wonderful example of a fine three storey Georgian townhouse presented in immaculate order throughout. The property offers elegantly proportioned rooms and retains much of its period charm with a range of delightful features. The features include the delicate cornicing, marble and wooden mantelpieces and the impressive staircase. The property is perfectly orientated to take advantage of natural light throughout the day, with north east and south west aspects and delightful outlooks over Stockbridge rooftops towards the Firth of Forth to the rear, as well as over the well-tended gardens to the front.
The front door opens to a wonderfully welcoming hall, from where the ground floor accommodation is accessed and where the stair rises to the first floor, as well as descending to the lower ground floor. To the front is an elegant drawing room with two astragal windows, a delightful wooden mantelpiece and a gas fire. To the rear lies the third bedroom, which is currently utilised as a study, with a beautifully appointed bathroom adjacent. The stair is crowned by a skylight which makes it a wonderfully bright space. The principal bedroom is situated at first floor level at the front of the house, and has three astragal double glazed windows as well as a charming white marble mantelpiece and delicate cornicing. The second bedroom is situated to the rear of the house and offers spectacular views. The principal bathroom is adjacent to the second bedroom. There is also a large and useful storage cupboard on this floor.
At lower ground floor level there is a comfortable sitting room to the front of the house, with double doors opening to the superb dining kitchen. The central island and fitted units incorporate KitchenAid and other appliances and there is ample space for a dining table. There are both double doors and an additional single door opening from the kitchen to the rear garden.
The gardens are a delight. The rear garden is largely paved to minimise maintenance, and creates a wonderful terrace to sit in and enjoy the morning sunshine. The garden to the front is well stocked with a wide variety of mature plants, shrubs and roses in the borders surrounding the central lawn. A tree stands close by the garden gate and pathway which leads from the street to the front door, while there is a well-screened patio, ideal for outside dining, immediately in front of the house. Stone steps lead down to the front basement area where there is a dry-lined storage cellar.
Occupants may apply for a key to the wonderful Dean Gardens, situated to the south end of Ann Street, on application and payment of a modest annual fee. Keys are subject to availability and there may be a waiting list.
