2 bedroom flat

Set within a peaceful, leafy development in the popular Liberton area, this beautifully presented upper villa forms part of an elegant Victorian detached building dating back to the 1870s. Brimming with period charm and character, the property offers generous proportions and an abundance of natural light along with beautiful gardens, a private garage and residents' parking.

A private entrance leads into a bright vestibule and an impressive hallway with original Victorian floor tiles, a large understair cupboard, and a dramatic arched opening that draws the eye upward to a striking south-facing window. This magnificent arched feature floods the stairwell with light and sets a grand tone for the rest of the home.

Upstairs, the spacious bay-windowed sitting room enjoys a pleasant outlook and centres around a handsome wood-burning stove with a marble surround. The kitchen offers a range of wall and base units, plenty room to dine, and a traditional Edinburgh press.

There are two double bedrooms, including a substantial principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes and a beautiful open view towards Edinburgh Castle. Subject to necessary consents, this room could easily be reconfigured to create two bedrooms if desired. The second bedroom features a charming decorative fireplace. A well-presented bathroom with a three-piece suite and shower over the bath completes the accommodation.

The property benefits from gas central heating and modern double glazing throughout. Externally, the garden grounds are exceptionally well kept, with lawns, mature planting and seating areas to enjoy as well as a drying area. Although not technically private, the three residents within the building have self-zoned so each owner has an area of ground to maintain and enjoy. A single garage is included, and there is ample unrestricted parking for residents and guests.
