Property: Green and serene eco-house is hidden charm

Part of an exclusive boutique development, 2 Thorntree Mews is a promising option for the climate conscious, tucked away quietly between Easter Road and Leith Walk.

The timbered two-bed, mid-terrace eco-house enjoys a secluded setting in a secure development, with a south-facing garden and off-street parking, and the popular amenities and buzzy atmosphere of Leith on its doorstep.

The property has been finished to a high spec throughout and has been optimised for low running costs, with environmentally friendly features including under-floor heating, extensive insulation, a living roof, modern double glazing and an air-source heat pump for hot water and heating.

A welcoming hallway offers storage and a stylish shower room, and leads to an open-plan living room/kitchen-diner, spanning the ground floor. Its kitchen is sleek, while the cosy living area has French doors out to the garden.
