5 bedroom detached house for sale

16 South Guildry Street is an exceptional town house located in one of the city’s most desired residential areas. With easy access to the town centre and in the catchment of West End Primary School and the Academy, South Guildry Street is widely regarded as one of the most sought after addresses in the area. Likely dating from the late 1800’s, the house occupies a fine south facing elevated position which commands far reaching views south to the Brown Muir and beyond. Constructed of stone under a slate roof, extensive (some 395m2) and very well appointed accommodation is provided over two and half storeys with 4 generously sized receptions rooms, 5 bedrooms and extensive ancillary accommodation that offers enormous flexibility and the opportunity to add to the bedrooms numbers if required.

The house has many of the period features one would hope to find in a property of this age and character including tall, corniced ceilings, attractive fireplaces, hardwood flooring, deep set bay windows and an attractive staircase with a carved handrail and cast iron balusters to name just a few. The sitting room, living room and master bedroom are particularly appealing rooms whilst the kitchen is very well equipped with a range of wall and floor units, a two oven gas Aga and various integrated appliances. The house appears to be in excellent condition and is tastefully decorated throughout. It is double glazed (with relatively new windows and doors) and is heated using gas central heating. A 4kW solar array with battery storage ensures far improved energy efficiency. The property is connected to all mains services (water, foul drainage and gas).

GARDEN
Outside, there is a generously sized enclosed garden, much of which has been monoblocked to provide ample parking space for up to seven vehicles. In addition, there are smaller areas of lawn, various borders and a wonderful, sheltered patio which is a fantastic sun trap with access into the sunroom adjacent. There are several useful outbuildings which in addition to providing superb storage space, provide scope for development (subject to obtaining all necessary consents). These include two single garages, a bike shed, potting shed and loft storage.
