7 bedroom house

Nestled within approximately1.3 acres (0.53 hectares) of enchanting gardens in the highly sought-after Colinton enclave, Glen Flora exudes a rare blend of grand period elegance and serene privacy. Its striking façade, complete with an inviting veranda, retains a wealth of original architectural character, including intricate cornicing, elegant sash-and-case windows with working shutters, and stately fireplaces, that set a majestic tone from the moment of arrival. A sweeping gravel drive leads to generous parking and a charming outbuilding, while the grounds offer mature trees, flowering borders and a tranquil cascade water feature, with even a picturesque kitchen garden that has been showcased as part of the Scotland Open Garden Scheme. The setting offers both refinement and the peaceful seclusion prized by families seeking a serene yet supremely convenient location.

Inside, the home has been meticulously and tastefully enhanced with cosmetic upgrades by the current owners, ensuring that the property feels refreshed while preserving its graceful heritage. The entrance hall and grand staircase lead to a series of beautifully proportioned reception rooms - most notably, the drawing room bathed in natural light and anchored by a captivating bay window and elegant fireplace, and a formal dining room featuring commanding views of the Pentland Hills. The well-appointed kitchen, complete with a central island, larder, and wine cellar, flows into practical utility spaces and discreet accommodation including a bedroom with ensuite facilities and WC. Upstairs, five spacious bedrooms, one with a sumptuous ensuite bathroom, and benefit from delightful vistas, while two further rooms in the turreted second floor offer flexible usage as bedrooms or studies. Every corner of Glen Flora balances period grandeur with subtle contemporary refinement, making this distinguished family home both beautiful and inviting.
