Quietly positioned in the Portobello Conservation Area, just a short distance from the beach, this enchanting semi-detached Victorian home offers wonderfully versatile family accommodation with 2 reception rooms, additional 2 versatile rooms on the ground floor, 5 bedrooms on the first floor, a bathroom, a separate WC, and private parking. Rich in period character and impressive proportions, the property also enjoys a charming walled garden and an exceptionally convenient setting close to the A1 and city bypass, with a nearby cycle path and frequent bus links connecting to central Edinburgh less than four miles away.

A vestibule and airy entrance hall welcome you inside, where storage and a WC cloakroom add practicality.

The second reception room at the rear offers an ideal formal dining space with open access to the kitchen. It features an ornamental fireplace, a ceiling clothes pulley, and useful storage. Overlooking and opening onto the garden, the kitchen is fitted with classic wood-toned cabinetry, generous workspace, and freestanding appliances including a gas cooker, tall fridge freezer, and washing machine.

Arranged over two floors, this property offers excellent flexibility for larger families, home working, or multigenerational living. There is a study/office and a versatile playroom on the ground floor. There are 4 double bedrooms and a single bedroom, which is ideal as a study on the first floor. A bright first-floor bathroom with a shower-over-bath completes the accommodation. Gas central heating, excellent built-in storage, and traditional sash windows, double glazed to the front and some with stripped wood shutters, further enhance the home.

Outside, the enclosed rear garden is an established outdoor space with a lawn, seating terrace, vegetable beds, mature planting, a greenhouse, and a shed. An attractive front garden, private driveway, and large bicycle shed complete the property.
