137 Whitson Road, Edinburgh

This main-door upper villa is a welcoming two-bedroom residence that has lightly decorated interiors and a sunny, south-facing aspect. It features a quality kitchen and shower room, and it has the benefit of a well-maintained private garden. Situated in the heart of Balgreen, this lovely property also has a popular setting close to Saughton Park, within easy reach of fantastic amenities, supermarkets, and bus and tram links for a swift commute to the city centre.

The home’s private front door opens to a staircase leading up to a bright first-floor hall. Directly ahead is the living/dining room. This charming reception area enjoys an on-trend aesthetic, pairing light grey decor with a complementary feature wall and soft carpeting. It is instantly inviting and easy to style. Furthermore, it is spacious and brightly illuminated by a south-facing window. Next door, the kitchen is fitted with modern cabinets in wooden tones, paired with stone-style worktops and fashionable metro-effect splashback tiles. Undercabinet lighting adds to the attractive look, along with integrated appliances (oven, ceramic hob, concealed extractor, fridge/freezer, and dishwasher). An undercounter washing machine is also included. Meanwhile, the two bedrooms are bright and airy doubles. They are neutrally decorated and laid with plush carpets that were newly fitted roughly four/five years ago (like the living area). The principal bedroom is to the south-facing front, whilst the second bedroom is to the rear, enjoying delightful garden views. Completing the home is a modern three-piece shower room, equipped with a WC suite, a towel radiator, and a walk-in shower enclosure with a rainfall showerhead. Gas central heating and double glazing ensure year-round comfort.

Outside, the property boasts a generous rear garden that is fully enclosed. It features a long stretch of lawn and a decked area for relaxing and dining in the sun. There is also a large communal drying green as well. Parking in the area is on street and unrestricted.
