Situated on a highly desirable street in Murrayfield, this substantial family residence offers significant renovation opportunities. Covering approximately 2,282 sq ft, the home is designed over two levels and features spacious rooms that reflect the traditional charm of the area. The ground floor consists of an inviting vestibule leading to a generous hallway, an impressive bay-windowed lounge, a dining room, a study, and a sizeable kitchen complete with a utility room, pantry, and WC. This layout provides an excellent base for modern family living and presents clear possibilities to open up the rear of the property to create a contemporary kitchen-diner that overlooks the garden.
On the first floor, you will find four well-sized bedrooms including a particularly large principal suite with an adjoining dressing room. The existing layout allows for flexibility; there is ample opportunity to modernise or reconfigure spaces to meet today’s living standards. While it currently requires some updating and modernisation, this aspect enhances its potential appeal as it promises not just restoration but also transformation into an enviable home.
The property sits on a generous plot which presents further potential for extension into the rear garden (subject to necessary permissions) or conversion of attic space for additional bedrooms or office areas. Positioned within a prestigious location known for its attractive period properties and excellent local amenities, this house could be significantly enhanced to create a remarkable family dwelling with lasting value.
