5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Whitehaven, 1 Fairhaven Villas, Torsonce Road, Eskbank EH22

Set within one of Eskbank’s most established and desirable residential areas, this impressive Victorian semi-detached Villa combines the elegance and proportions of a period property with the comfort, specification and finish expected of a modern family home.

Behind its distinctive turreted façade is a wonderfully versatile house offering five bedrooms, three bathrooms and generous reception accommodation, with original architectural features thoughtfully retained alongside an extensive programme of refurbishment.

From the moment you enter, the scale and character of the property are immediately apparent. High ceilings, period fireplaces, detailed cornicing, large windows and beautifully proportioned rooms create a sense of space and grandeur that is increasingly difficult to find in a modern house.

At the heart of the home is a stylish, contemporary kitchen and dining area, designed to work just as well for everyday family life as it does for entertaining. The home offers four bedrooms upstairs, with a versatile fifth bedroom/reception room downstairs, alongside two further reception rooms. The standout principal bedroom leads to a beautifully appointed turreted en-suite and a generous walk-in wardrobe, a unique and luxurious space that is rarely found in a home of this character.

Outside, the property enjoys a south-west-facing garden, providing a lovely private space for relaxing, entertaining and enjoying the afternoon and evening sun. The existing detached garage could also be relocated to create off-street parking, subject to any necessary permissions.

Eskbank offers the rare combination of a peaceful, established residential setting with excellent access to Edinburgh. With local amenities, schools, countryside and transport links close by, it is an increasingly popular choice for anyone looking to enjoy more space without giving up the convenience of being within easy reach of the city.
