Property description

Offering wonderfully bright and spacious, versatile accommodation, with all the ease and convenience of single-storey living, this detached bungalow enjoys five bedrooms, a generous living room, a dining kitchen, front and rear gardens, an attached single garage, and a multi-car driveway. The home is situated on a leafy street in Milton Bridge, just a stone's throw from the Pentland Hills Regional Park and close to nearby amenities and transport links.

A hallway (with built-in storage) welcomes you into the property, giving the first glimpse of the light and airy accommodation to follow. Leading off the hall and situated to the rear of the property, with wide, southwest-facing patio doors (fitted in November 2021) flooding the room with sunshine and opening onto the lovely garden, is a living room. Neutrally decorated and fitted with wood-styled flooring, the living room offers excellent flexibility for layouts of lounge furniture, all arranged around a handsome fireplace. Next door in the equally sunny kitchen, space is provided for a dining area and classically styled wall and base cabinets are framed by a spacious worktop and charming splashback tiling. An oven, a gas hob, an extractor fan, an eye-level microwave, a fridge/freezer, and a dishwasher are integrated, whilst space is provided for additional freestanding appliances. An adjoining utility room affords access outside and leads to a WC, as well as housing a washing machine and dryer.

The appealing property accommodates five well-proportioned bedrooms, all enjoying neutral décor and fitted with plush carpets for optimum comfort underfoot.

The three largest rooms are accompanied by built-in wardrobes with mirrored doors, maximising floorspace for furniture, and one of the remaining bedrooms has handy cupboard storage. The fifth bedroom could lend itself to a variety of uses, including a formal dining room, an additional sitting area, or a home office ideal for those who study or work from home! A modern family bathroom completes the accommodation on offer, comprising a bath with a shower attachment, a separate shower enclosure, a basin set into storage, and a WC, all set against aqua panelling and neutral décor. Gas central heating and double glazing ensure optimum comfort and efficiency all year round.

Externally, the home is flanked by beautifully-maintained, mature gardens to the front and rear.

The front garden features a lawn with a lovely leafy border, whilst the generous, sun-trap rear garden includes a spacious, well-kept lawn, a patio for outdoor seating, a greenhouse, and a wealth of mature, colourful shrubs and a neat hedged border. Excellent private parking is provided by an attached single garage (with power and a tap) and a multi-car driveway.

Milton Bridge, Midlothian

Situated under two miles north of Penicuik on the picturesque Glencorse Burn, the tranquil village of Milton Bridge is the perfect location for those keen to escape the bustle of the capital for a more rustic lifestyle immersed in the great Scottish outdoors. Enveloped by dense woodland and rolling farmland, and positioned at the foot of the majestic Pentland Hills, Milton Bridge feels worlds away from the busy capital, with a multitude of outdoor activities right on its doorstep. From relaxed strolls and cycles along the old railway line towards Musselburgh, to adrenaline-pumping snow sports, horse-riding, fly fishing or hiking in the Pentland Hills: Milton Bridge has something for all the family. The area also enjoys a rich cultural and historical heritage, most notably Glencorse Kirk in the grounds of Glencorse House, which was the setting for Robert Louis Stevenson's short story The Body Snatchers. Nearby Penicuik offers an excellent range of amenities including supermarkets, independent retailers, cafes, pubs and restaurants, with more extensive shopping facilities available just a short drive away at Straiton Retail Park.
