A substantial four-bedroom Victorian townhouse with beautiful period features and versatile family accommodation extending to 2,218 sq ft
Description
Occupying a peaceful position on a discreetly tucked-away residential road within the sought-after Shandon district, the property is approached via a flight of traditional stone steps leading to the main entrance. An attractive paved seating area to the front provides a pleasant space from which to enjoy the property's desirable west-facing aspect. Entry is through a traditional vestibule, where original decorative floor tiling immediately provides an elegant introduction to the home. Beyond, a welcoming reception hall retains further period detailing, reflecting the character and craftsmanship synonymous with Victorian architecture.
To the front of the ground floor is a magnificent west-facing sitting room, a beautifully proportioned reception space centred around a working log-burning stove. The impressive bay window draws in excellent afternoon and evening light, while the combination of generous ceiling heights, period detailing and the warmth of the stove creates a room ideally suited to both formal entertaining and relaxed family living. The attractive outlook over Shandon Crescent further enhances the appeal of this exceptional reception room.
Situated to the rear, the spacious kitchen and dining room forms the heart of the home. Designed with modern family life in mind, the room comfortably accommodates both cooking and dining areas, creating a sociable and practical environment for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is further enhanced by an adjoining pantry, while a utility room, separate WC and a series of useful store rooms provide exceptional ancillary accommodation and storage, a feature rarely found in comparable period properties. The current owners have secured planning permission for French doors to be installed from the kitchen directly onto the rear garden, offering significant potential to create a seamless indoor-outdoor living environment.
A handsome staircase rises to the first floor where the principal bedroom occupies the front of the house. Enjoying the same attractive bay-window arrangement as the sitting room below, this is a particularly bright and generously proportioned room with ample space for freestanding furniture. Adjacent to the principal bedroom is a versatile study or dressing room, ideally suited to modern home working, a nursery or additional bedroom-related accommodation.
To the rear lies a further substantial double bedroom overlooking the surrounding rooftops, while a recently refurbished family bathroom completes the accommodation on this level. Finished to a high standard, the bathroom combines contemporary fittings with practicality and serves the bedroom accommodation beautifully.
The second floor provides two further double bedrooms, each offering excellent flexibility for family occupation, guest accommodation or alternative uses such as home offices or creative workspaces. Of particular note is the fourth bedroom, an exceptionally spacious room extending to over 20 feet in length and offering a variety of potential configurations to suit individual requirements.
A particularly attractive feature of the upper floor is the generous landing area, which provides an ideal space for a desk and dedicated home-working area. Benefiting from excellent natural light, this adaptable space creates a practical work-from-home environment while preserving the flexibility of the principal rooms. A large store room is also located on this floor, providing valuable additional storage.
Extending to approximately 206.05 sq m (2,218 sq ft), the property offers a rare combination of elegant Victorian proportions, original period character and highly practical family accommodation. From the intricate tiled vestibule and hallway, impressive west-facing reception room and recently refurbished bathroom to the generous bedroom accommodation and future potential to enhance the connection with the rear garden, the house represents a superb family home in one of Edinburgh's most sought-after residential locations.
