A fantastic opportunity to purchase a rarely available two bedroom late Victorian first floor villa situated in the popular area of Mayfield, south of Edinburgh city centre.
The property is full of character and retains many original features throughout. The accommodation comprises: hallway with storage cupboard; spacious and well-presented sitting/dining room with dual aspect bay and box bay windows filling the room with an abundance of natural light, feature fireplace, ornate corning and herringbone flooring; kitchen with ample wall and base units, tiled splashback and integrated appliances (namely oven, hob and cooker hood); two well-appointed bedrooms with storage cupboards and plenty of space for freestanding furniture; and a family bathroom with four-piece suite including bath, shower cubicle, wash hand basin and WC which completes the accommodation.
Externally, there is a large well-maintained private rear garden and additional communal drying green. Parking is available on Granby Road and surrounding streets.
Granby Road is in the sought-after Mayfield area, two miles South of Edinburgh city centre. There is a wide choice of local shops, cafes and restaurants in the local area with a number of high street shops and Sainburys supermarket available in nearby Cameron Toll Shopping Centre. Many more shops, bars and restaurants are found on Causewayside, Nicolson Street, South Bridge, Clerk Street and along Newington Road, as well as at Marchmont. The Meadows and Hermitage of Braid and Blackford Hill are located less than a mile from the property while Arthurs Seat and Salisbury Crags offer the perfect opportunity for more strenuous exercise. The Royal Commonwealth Pool is also nearby. The house is perfectly located for The University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh College of Art and the National Library of Scotland. The property is in the catchment area for Sciennes Primary School and James Gillespie’s High School which are both well regarded. Excellent bus services provide access to the city centre, and the A701 leads out to the City Bypass and thence to the central motorway network.
