Description

Situated in the desirable Duddingston area of Edinburgh, this spacious detached bungalow presents a unique opportunity for buyers keen on personalising their living space. The property features well-proportioned rooms throughout and, while it requires some upgrading and modernisation, it holds significant potential to transform into a delightful family residence. Furthermore, there is an opportunity to convert the expansive loft area into additional living quarters, pending necessary planning permissions. Upon entering, you'll find a welcoming vestibule that leads to a central hallway connecting the main living areas. At the front, a bright reception room with a fireplace offers versatility; it could easily serve as a principal bedroom if desired. At the rear, the lounge provides pleasant garden views and includes a gas fireplace along with neutral decor for a comforting atmosphere. The kitchen is equipped with various wall and base units and offers direct access to the garden through a convenient side door. There are two well-sized double bedrooms—one at the front and another spacious room at the back featuring built-in storage. The fully tiled bathroom comprises a white three-piece suite along with a separate shower cubicle fitted with a thermostatic shower. Externally, the property features an attractive front garden alongside a gated driveway leading to an integral garage for off-street parking. The rear garden is enclosed and boasts both lawn and low-maintenance patio areas, surrounded by mature trees and established shrubs—providing ample scope for landscaping or further improvements.
