Dog walks, night life and excellent commuting links – this Edinburgh home has it all, and it is very competitively priced. Picture by Planography

Fancy a family home with all the accessibility of city living, the community spirit of Corstorphine and with parks, walks and great days out on the doorstep?

This four-bedroom, two-bathroom home offers all this and more, and modern homes like this, with all the facilities you could wish for, don’t come on the market very often. By moving a few miles out of the city centre, you certainly get a lot of bang for your buck, with the house on the market for a fixed price of £375,000 the price of some central flats.

It’s ready to go for an immediate sale with early entry – in fact, the lucky new buyer could have the keys in hand before the schools return after the summer break, making the timing of this house move a dream come true for someone.

Early viewing highly recommended. Picture by Planography.

This is a stylish three-storey townhouse in a bright, modern development; the houses have been up just over seven years, so there are still nearly three years left on the NHBC warranty. The Clerwood development is in sought-after Corstorphine, with incredible amenities on the doorstep. Enjoying plenty of residents parking out front, and a front and rear garden of its own, this house is on the doorstep of Corstorphine Hill.

The current owner said: “We moved here from a new build flat in Leith, as we wanted a garden and room to have a dog. Our five-year-old cockapoo Ivy loves going for long walks up the hill or in surrounding greenspace, while we love the amenities that Corstorphine has to offer.

“It’s a beautiful home, and the only reason we are selling is we want a project. We went from a new build flat to this new build home, but now fancy an older property – we are definitely staying in the local area as we love it here, but we want a project to get our teeth into.

This four-bedroom Corstorphine townhouse is in walk-in condition … and the buyer could be in before the school holidays are over. Picture by Planography

“However, for a next buyer, 17 Larchwood Square is in walk-in condition, and will be much loved.”

In fact, when it went on the market in June there was a buyer within days. Sadly, that buyer had to pull out for personal reasons, meaning this beautiful home is unexpectedly back on the market.

Inside

The house was built in 2015 and has been extensively redecorated throughout by the current owner. There are four bedrooms, two bathrooms, two reception rooms and a downstairs WC.

The spacious master bedroom has its own large en-suite and the south westerly gardens catch the sun from late morning till late evening … the perfect spot to unwind or to entertain.

If you want to work from home, stream movies or game, the Ultra Fast Full Fibre Broadband available makes it speedy and reliable.

There are plenty of cafes, restaurants and bars within walking distance, Edinburgh Zoo is close by and there’s a good range of supermarkets. More practical concerns, like doctor and dental surgeries, are all taken care of.

The house is in the St Andrew’s RC Fox Covert and Fox Covert Primary Schools catchment area – both are just a five-minute walk away. St Augustine’s RC High and Craigmount High are just 15 minutes by car and the house is serviced by the 26 Lothian Bus route, with excellent transport links to the city centre and all onward rail connections. By car, both the M8, M9 and city bypass are just minutes away and Corstorphine is, of course, handy for Edinburgh Airport.

Key selling points

This house offers laid-back, hassle-free living, with easily maintained gardens, a quiet suburban lifestyle, yet a thriving village feel community nearby, all within a few miles of the city centre. It would equally suit a growing family, or someone who wants to move a few miles out of the city centre, without having to compromise on accessibility.

Viewers love the five-burner gas range in the spacious dining kitchen, the large master bedroom at the top of the house, and the genuine walk-in condition throughout.
