We have recently renovated out home so it's fresh and modern but retaining it's Victorian features.
We're a ten minute walk to the beach and a 20 min bus ride in to the centre of Edinburgh.
The space
Entrance in to a porch then in to a large bright hallway with stained glass window.
Leading off the hall, there's a large modern kitchen and dining room with patio doors to the garden.
Living room with wood burner and a piano.
There's also an office and movie room.
Upstairs there's a master bathroom and 3 large bedrooms: master with emperor bed and ensuite with views of Arthur's Seat, second bedroom with king-size bed, third bedroom is our son's room but we could arrange for it to be an adult guest room if required, or equally if you have more than one child. We can cater for infants as well, just ask.
3 bathrooms - one bathroom and one ensuite upstairs, one shower room with toilet downstairs.
There's plenty of outdoor facilities including a stone BBQ and pizza oven, comfy lounge seats, dining table and children's climbing frame and play area.
There's offstreet parking to the front of the house for two vehicles.
