4 bed detached house for sale

Gogarbank, Edinburgh, Midlothian EH12

Unique detached property with excellent sized plot primed for renovation or re-development.

Description
Over Gogar House is a substantial detached house occupying a generous and established plot within the Gogarbank area of Edinburgh. Extending to approximately 2,357 sq ft (219 sq m), the property offers an exceptional opportunity for renovation or redevelopment into an outstanding home.

The house has been held for many years and used commercially but now presents a rare chance to acquire a home of scale and setting, providing an excellent framework for the creation of a bespoke family residence.

The existing accommodation is arranged over two principal floors and offers a high degree of flexibility. On the ground floor, a welcoming vestibule leads through to a central hall, from which a number of generously proportioned reception rooms are accessed plus W.C.

The first floor provides what would most likely represent a particularly spacious principal bedroom, along with three further bedrooms, all of good proportions plus space for two bathrooms.

The layout lends itself well to reconfiguration or modernisation, with scope to create contemporary open plan living spaces or to enhance and retain the existing room proportions.

The property sits within a notably generous plot of around 0.36 hectares, offering a high degree of privacy and significant potential for landscaping, extension or redevelopment (subject to planning). The grounds provide an excellent sense of space and represent one of the key attractions of the property.

Location
The property is situated approximately 7.8 miles to the west of Edinburgh city centre. There is excellent access to the city centre, Edinburgh Park and Edinburgh International Airport as well as to Glasgow with good links to the City Bypass and the Central Scotland motorway networks.

Retail amenities within a short drive include Hermiston Gait Retail Park and The Gyle shopping centre. The nearby village of Ratho also houses a highly rated restaurant and public house the Bridge Inn plus further pubs and eateries in nearby Balerno and Currie.

There are also excellent leisure facilities within easy access including the Dalmahoy Golf and Country Club with two golf courses, a swimming pool and a gym, the adventure and surf centre centre in Ratho and pleasant walks along the River Almond to Cramond, Dalmeny, Hopetoun and South Queensferry.
