4 bed flat for sale

19 Downie Terrace, Edinburgh EH12

Promising wonderfully large and airy rooms, this traditional main-door duplex apartment is an expansive four-bedroom home that resides on the ground and lower-ground floors of a handsome traditional building. Combining elegant interior design and a wealth of period features, it provides sumptuous accommodation throughout. The home further boasts a high degree of versatility to meet various needs and lifestyles, and it has excellent storage too. A stylish kitchen, four-piece bathroom, and shower room add further appeal, along with a private driveway for off-street parking and a fully-enclosed, south-facing rear garden which has a low-maintenance design for basking and dining in the sun. Situated in sought-after Corstorphine, the property has a highly desirable location in the capital as well. It is within easy reach of fantastic amenities, schools, green spaces, and transport links, and is roughly a ten minutes' drive from Edinburgh's West End and city centre.

Stepping inside, you are welcomed by a vestibule with traditional floor tiles, flowing through to a hall that is beautifully styled with decorative cornicing. It offers an unforgettable introduction and a glimpse of the high-quality interiors to follow. With large archways and two built in cupboards, the hall also provides practical storage too.

A haven for relaxing and socialising, the living room has an expansive footprint and refined decoration. It pairs a bold accent wall with a neutral backdrop and the warm glow of a hardwood floor, creating a truly inviting aesthetic. The space is further enhanced by lavish cornice work and a ceiling rose, which draw attention to the room's high ceiling. A bay window sees a cascade of natural light throughout the day, whilst an imposing fireplace forms a delightful focal point for the arrangement of comfy lounge furniture.

The dining kitchen has a spacious footprint and a striking design, incorporating Shaker-style cabinets in white, alongside wooden worktops and cherry-red splashback tiles. It is an attractive and eye-catching look that provides excellent practicality as well. It has a south-facing aspect and rear garden access, and it comes with a range of appliances.

With four double bedrooms, the home offers a lot of space and the flexibility to meet your stage of life. Bedroom two is another large double-sized space on this floor, with two further double bedrooms (three and four) set on the ground level, all of which continue the home's impeccable standards. Bedroom three has built-in storage, lovely decorative features (including cornicing and a ceiling rose), and a large double window with wooden panelling, whilst bedroom four offers further versatility, used as a dressing room. For added storage, there is also a generous storage room on the lower-ground floor as well.

The large principal bedroom on the lower-ground floor mirrors the size and scope of the living room, as well as many of its features (such as a bay window and focal-point fireplace). It also has useful built-in storage. Currently, this space is organised as another reception area for relaxing and dining, yet it is easy to imagine it as a luxury bedroom for the owners.

At ground level, there is a modern bathroom equipped with a four-piece suite, which includes a toilet, a storage-set washbasin, a double-ended bath, and a separate shower cubicle. Conveniently, there is also a contemporary three piece shower room on the lower floor as well, boasting premium tile work, a WC suite with storage and counterspace, and a double shower enclosure with a rainfall showerhead.

Externally, the home has a charming rear garden which is enclosed by a high wall for the safety of all family members, including free-roaming pets. It has a low maintenance design too, featuring an artificial lawn and a decked area fitted with ambient lighting. With a suntrap, south-facing aspect, this garden is perfect for enjoying the summer months. The property also has a private rear driveway for off-street parking.

Extras: An electric range cooker with electric ovens, a 5-ring gas hob and an integrated hot plate, as well as integrated appliances (fridge/freezer, wine fridge, dishwasher, and washer/dryer) to be included in the sale. Please note, no warranties or guarantees shall be provided in relation to any of the services, moveables, and/or appliances included in the price, as these items are to be left in a sold as seen condition.
