“An extremely impressive and
unique detached villa, offering
beautiful views to the Pentland Hills”
Description
An extremely impressive and unique detached villa, offering beautiful views to the Pentland Hills,
is approached by private driveway leading to the detached tandem garage. The house enjoys an
elevated position surrounded by delightful landscaped grounds including an expansive lawn and
a summer house, which prolongs the seasonal use of the garden. The mono-blocked driveway
not only provides extensive off road parking but has the added benefit of an under-drive heating
system, ideal for winter mornings.
This superb south facing property is well presented throughout and retains much of its fine original
period features which blend seamlessly with modern fixtures and fittings resulting in a thoroughly
convenient and flexible family home with accommodation over two levels. This elegant and
cherished home has been meticulously maintained and is enviably located within a highly regarded
and much sought after residential area, just a short walk from local shops and services.
