Location
Swanston Drive forms part of a mature residential development (circa 1960) enjoying a quite exceptional location on the lower slopes of the Pentland Hills. Residents benefit from an excellent lifestyle with a wide range of amenities near at hand. Two local shops within a few minutes’ walk, short drive to Straiton shopping centre, sports centres, Hillend and larger supermarkets. Edinburgh city centre is a short commute with several bus services on Biggar Road: A 5 minute walk. The city by-pass, leading to the Airport and motorway network is a 2 minute drive. Being on the fringe of the city limits, it is easy to take advantage of the many picturesque walks in neighbouring countryside. Schooling is well catered for in the area.
The property
The property comprises a semi-detached bungalow with very well-proportioned rooms set out over the ground and upper floors The current owners have refurbished the property to a high standard including plumbing and electrics, rooflights have been installed in the rear of the property to maximise the natural daylight, quality timber doors, facings and skirtings. The carefully thought-out layout focuses on the outlook to the rear onto the beautiful gardens which have panoramic views of surrounding countryside. With bedrooms and bathroom on the ground floor, guest or parent accommodation is catered for. A definite bonus is the “Log Cabin” (wired for Wi Fi) which is perfect for entertaining, a “Work from Home” office or simply chilling out. There is ample outdoor storage with power to the main shed and garden lights installed. Driveway for 1 car, plenty of on-street parking in this quiet street.
