About this property
Spacious two-bedroom fourth-floor retirement flat with lift access
Beautifully presented to a high standard throughout
Bright turret-style living/dining room
Far-reaching views across Edinburgh
Modern kitchen and newly renovated shower room
A beautifully presented two-bedroom fourth-floor retirement apartment with lift access, within the popular Homecairn House development on Goldenacre Terrace, offering spacious accommodation, excellent storage and far-reaching views across Edinburgh.
The property has been freshly decorated in a bright, neutral palette and is presented in excellent condition throughout. At its heart is a particularly generous open-plan living/dining room, where a distinctive turret-style bay and three windows create a bright and attractive space with open rooftop views towards Corstorphine Hill and the Pentland Hills, together with a side aspect towards Edinburgh Castle. A modern, recently fitted kitchen is accessed directly from the living area and includes an induction hob, integrated double oven and a freestanding fridge/freezer gifted by the vendor.
There are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes and outlooks towards Goldenacre Terrace, with the second bedroom currently providing flexible guest and home-office accommodation. The newly renovated shower room has been finished to an excellent contemporary standard, while the welcoming L-shaped hallway incorporates two large storage cupboards.
Residents also benefit from a recently refurbished communal lounge, a communal laundry room and guest bedrooms which are available for visiting friends and family to use at a modest charge.
Combining generous room sizes, modern presentation, attractive outlooks, excellent communal facilities and a highly practical layout, this is an appealing retirement property in a well-established Edinburgh location.
The development is managed by FirstPort Scotland, with an approximate annual service charge of £4,000, covering the House Manager service, 24-hour Careline system, communal maintenance, the running costs and maintenance of the lift, and the buildings insurance policy for the development.
