Description
An impressive double fronted traditional detached house in the sought after Newington area on Edinburghs Southside within easy reach of excellent schools and amenities.
The property presents a fantastic opportunity for those seeking a family residence in need of modernisation and offers substantial accommodation, arranged over two levels. The accommodation retains some charming original features including fireplaces, cornice and picture rails. Recent refurbishment work includes Crittall steel double glazed windows to the front and a new boiler and hot water tank with Hive system.
Undoubtedly the most striking feature is the large cupola positioned above the reception hall, flooding both the entrance and the first-floor landing with natural light.
The house is set within generous gardens offering scope for future expansion. The rear garden is fully enclosed and walled and includes two sheds and a summerhouse with power. The land was originally bought, and the house commissioned by Mr Duncan of Duncans of Edinburgh, a prominent confectionary company from 1861 until 2003.
