3 bed villa for sale

20 Silverknowes Terrace, Edinburgh EH4

This bright and well-proportioned semi-detached house enjoys a sunny and sheltered southwest facing garden and offers superb family accommodation in a highly sought after location, close to excellent schools, amenities and transport links.

The house would now benefit from a degree of modernisation and upgrading but has been a much loved family home for nearly 60 years and provides the perfect opportunity for new owners to put their own stamp on the accommodation, with ample options to remodel or extend the home, subject to the usual permissions. An entrance porch leads to the front door which opens to a welcoming hallway with useful built-in storage under the stairs. A bay windowed reception room to the front features a gas living flame fire and shelved open press. To the rear, a generous second reception room has patio doors opening to the garden. The galley style kitchen has a window to the side and door to the rear garden and an external store outside the back door houses the combi boiler and offers useful additional storage space. Stairs from the hallway with a feature corner window lead to the upper landing where a hatch and Ramsay ladder give access to the part-floored loft space, which may offer scope for conversion subject to the usual planning and consents. The principal bedroom has a bay window to the front and extensive built-in wardrobes and storage. There is a large second double bedroom with triple windows to the rear overlooking the garden and a third single bedroom with corner window to the front and built-in wardrobes. A wet-room style shower room with window to the rear completes the internal accommodation. Benefits include gas central heating and full double glazing.

A particular feature of this home is the sheltered southwest facing garden to the rear which has been thoughtfully planted and well-maintained to provide year-round colour and interest. There is a neat lawn area and paved patio which provides the ideal spot for al fresco dining or relaxing outdoors during the warmer months. There is an outside tap and door giving access to the garage. A timber tool shed is included in the sale. To the front, the house is set back from the street with a neat front garden with lawn and privet hedge. A monoblocked driveway offers off street parking and leads to the garage, which has double doors, power and light. Further unrestricted on-street parking is also available.
