2 Wolrige Road Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh,

Boasting five bedrooms, multiple living areas, two bathrooms, and a third WC, this extended detached villa has been upgraded to an exceptional standard, creating a luxurious and eco-efficient family home. Situated in desirable Liberton, just three miles from the heart of Edinburgh, it benefits from a scenic nature reserve on the doorstep and captivating views towards Edinburgh Castle from the secluded principal suite. Manicured, low-maintenance gardens – secure and south-facing at the rear – together with private parking, complete this highly appealing property.

Luxury five-bedroom family home in leafy Liberton

The immaculate finish is immediately apparent on arrival. Behind the charming façade are neutrally presented interiors in true move-in condition. This decorative backdrop allows for effortless personalisation and is complemented by quality Karndean flooring throughout. Features such as underfloor heating, upgraded insulation, and a security system enhance the home’s superior specification. The property has also undergone a full electrical rewire and benefits from new heating, gas, and water systems. Its generous internal space offers appealing versatility, easily accommodating a family’s needs for years to come.

Light-filled reception rooms for family life and entertaining

Leading off the airy reception hall is the spacious bay-fronted living room – a charming dual-aspect sitting area with elegant period-style coving and ceiling rose. To the rear is a second reception room, featuring corner picture windows with built-in seating, uninterrupted garden views, and the benefit of all-day sun. This flexible family room, with cosy underfloor heating and display shelving, is openly adjoined to the kitchen.

Sociable dining kitchen with a seamless garden connection

At the heart of the home, the kitchen is flooded with natural light from an electronic roof light, glazed doors to the hall, and wide sliding doors facing southwest, creating a seamless link to the garden. Designed as a true social hub, it features a generous dining area and an island with breakfast seating. Gloss-green units, paired with marbled worktops, integrate a double oven, induction hob, and dishwasher. An American-style fridge-freezer, Quooker Fusion 5-in-1 boiling/filtered tap, and a handy pantry cupboard further enhance the space, while underfloor heating ensures year-round comfort.

Accessed from the kitchen and rear garden (which has gated driveway access), there is a practical utility room for laundry appliances, also incorporating a guest WC.

Private principal suite with Castle views and a four-piece bathroom

The principal suite (with useful storage) occupies the entire first floor, accessed via an oak-and-glass staircase. It offers a sumptuously carpeted double bedroom with panoramic skyline views towards Edinburgh Castle. The luxury bathroom features dual basin vanity units, a shower enclosure, a deep freestanding bath, and a towel radiator, all framed by chic mottled-green tiling. Built-in Bluetooth speakers and underfloor heating add further indulgence.

Flexible family accommodation with four further bedrooms

The remaining, plushly carpeted double bedrooms are arranged across the ground floor, offering flexibility for family living, guests, or a home office. Three rooms benefit from built-in wardrobes.

Four-piece family bathroom and a guest WC

In addition to the principal en-suite, a second, equally luxurious bathroom on the ground floor comprises a shower enclosure, slipper bath, WC-suite, toiletries storage, towel radiator, and underfloor heating. A third WC, off the utility room, provides added convenience.

Sunny, secluded garden and private parking

Completing the home are immaculate lawns to the front and rear, plus a gravelled driveway providing space for two cars. The secure, south-facing back garden offers exceptional privacy and a suntrap dining terrace.
