Those looking for a family home in the city should look no further than this beautiful flat, located on an attractive residential street in desirable Craiglockhart. The semi-detached upper villa has recently been renovated and upgraded by the current owners resulting in an impressive family home. 

A home full of natural light

The stunning 1930s property is entered via a set of stone steps, with the main door opening into a bright hallway that is flooded with natural light thanks to the large roof light and is finished in painted wall paneling and wood parquet style flooring.  

Branching off from the hallway, the striking living room can be found at the front of the property, with a standout west-facing bay window and standout fireplace. The bold jeweled coloured décor creates an inviting atmosphere.
