House For Sale £385,000
Closing Date set for Thursday 5th October at 12:00
PROPERTY.
Located beside Bingham Park, this detached bungalow has a desirable location in Duddingston, set within easy reach of amenities, transport links, and schools. It is also perfectly positioned for easy travel to Edinburgh city centre and to Portobello’s long golden beach.
The property represents an ideal home for a wide variety of buyers, including downsizers, commuting professionals, and families, as well as investors. Whilst it would benefit from modernisation, the home has all the hallmarks of an outstanding residence, especially with its bright and spacious rooms and sought-after location. It also presents an opportunity to add significant value to the property.
Inside, you are greeted by a vestibule and a wood-panelled hall, which has broad dimensions and a built-in cupboard for coats and shoes. It is also brightly illuminated, providing a light and airy introduction to the home.
At the south-facing rear of the home, the living and dining room has a spacious footprint which sees an abundance of natural light. It also extends out into the back garden via French doors, which is ideal for families and for summer entertaining. The space is decorated in a combination of neutral hues and wood panelling, and it has a focal-point fireplace for arranging the room.
The kitchen is equipped with a well-appointed range of cabinets and ample worksurface space, enveloped in terracotta-coloured tiles framed by a central border. It has direct access to outside and comes with an integrated double oven and gas hob, and a freestanding fridge/freezer, a dishwasher, and a washing machine. Thanks to its good-size footprint, the room could easily be transformed into a modern hub of the home, one that would suit a wide variety of styles.
The three bedrooms are all large doubles that can accommodate an excellent choice of bedside furniture. The principal bedroom is to the south-facing rear, enjoying garden views and impressive built-in storage via a cupboard and wall-to-wall wardrobes. Bedrooms two and three are to the front of the property, both featuring bay windows for a light-filled ambience. The second bedroom further boasts two fitted wardrobes, which incorporate a vanity table and additional storage above. It also offers inspiring views to the iconic Arthur’s Seat.
Completing the accommodation is a fully-tiled bathroom with a four-piece suite. It is fitted with a toilet, a bidet, a pedestal washbasin, and a bath with an overhead shower.
Gas central heating and double-glazed windows ensure year-round comfort.
The home is flanked by well-maintained gardens that are fully enclosed for the safety of free-roaming pets and playing children. The front garden has an easy-upkeep design, whilst the rear garden is landscaped with a patio area and a sweeping lawn bordered by mature plants. The latter also boasts a suntrap, south-facing aspect, perfect for alfresco dining in the sun.
Extensive parking is also provided thanks to a gated, multi-car driveway and a detached tandem garage.
EXTRAS.
All fitted floor and window coverings, light fittings, integrated kitchen appliances, a fridge/freezer, a dishwasher, and a washing machine to be included in the sale.
LOCATION.
Nestled at the foot of majestic Arthur’s Seat and Salisbury Crags, Duddingston offers a unique village setting, yet is just over two miles east of the city centre. With the vast open spaces of Holyrood Park and Duddingston Loch to the west, and the golden sands of Portobello Beach to the east, residents have some of the capital’s most outstanding natural landscapes and views right on their doorstep. And of course, there is no shortage of outdoor pursuits, from walking, cycling and hiking in Holyrood Park, to a round of golf at Duddingston Golf Club.
The area is served by fantastic local services and amenities, particularly on nearby Portobello High Street, which is lined with an array of traditional shops and business, plus a handful of thriving cafes, pubs and restaurants. Popular with families looking for a more relaxed lifestyle (without leaving the city limits), Duddingston is within the catchment area for excellent local schools, and its close proximity to Edinburgh City Bypass and the A1 allows swift and convenient travel across the city and further afield. Nearby Brunstane train station and several bus routes also provide comprehensive public transport links, day and night.
