4 bed bungalow for sale

Hillview Road, Edinburgh, Midlothian EH12

With its traditional stone exterior, period features and well-balanced layout, this home provides a strong foundation for imaginative refurbishment with potential for further extension to maximise both space and value (subject to the necessary consents).

The elevated position allows for open views - especially from the first-floor, where far-reaching outlooks stretch west along Hillview Crescent and south to the Pentland Hills.

On the ground floor, the reception hall leads to a bright bay-windowed sitting room and a spacious principal bedroom opposite. Two further bedrooms - one ideal as a home office - offer flexibility to suit evolving needs. The dining room flows through to a kitchen with garden views, from which there is a cloakroom and access to the private back garden. A family bathroom completes the ground floor. Upstairs, a large family room with a dormer window offers superb potential as a playroom, studio, or additional bedroom with far-reaching views and useful storage.

Set within a generous plot and surrounded by mature greenery, this property offers a rare chance to craft a standout home in a quiet, well-connected location - perfectly positioned for family living and future growth.

The property is approached from the road via the driveway that leads to the single garage with metal up-and-over door; the drive can also accommodate a single vehicle if used as a parking space. Gently graded steps lead to the front door, past box hedging for privacy and lawns on either side. There is a patio to the rear of the house, with a long lawn beyond, dotted with mature trees, both evergreen and deciduous, for privacy and interest throughout the year. The garden is well established and in no need of immediate attention but offers enormous potential to the new owners.

Located approximately four miles west of Edinburgh City Centre, this area enjoys excellent access to local amenities and transport links. Nearby Corstorphine Road offers a wide selection of shops, independent retailers, cafés and everyday conveniences. The area is well served by a choice of excellent local primary and secondary schools, making it a popular choice for families.

For leisure and outdoor pursuits, residents can enjoy the scenic walks and wildlife of Corstorphine Hill Nature Reserve, as well as nearby public parks, the Zoo and several well-regarded golf courses. Murrayfield Stadium is also within easy reach, offering both world-class sporting events and concerts.

Public transport is well provided for, with regular bus and tram services offering swift connections to the city centre and beyond. The City Bypass and M8 motorway are just a short drive away, and Edinburgh Airport is conveniently located around four miles to the west, ideal for commuters and travellers alike.
