This three bedroom terraced dwellinghouse enjoys a quiet position within a popular and established residential area of the City. Whilst requiring modernisation and upgrading throughout, this ideal family home offers a generous level of accommodation spanning two floors, with benefits to include uPVC double glazed windows, abundant storage facilities within cupboards, wardrobes and a floored attic space, well maintained and fully enclosed garden areas. It is believed that a Grant may be available for the installation of a central heating system subject to completing an application to Home Energy Scotland

Accessed at the front via a timber panelled door with glazed side screen, the ground floor accommodation comprises: bright and spacious lounge with dual aspect windows which flood the room with natural light; and kitchen/diner, a generously proportioned open-plan room, offering ample space for dining and fitted with a comprehensive range of base, wall, drawer and larder style units complemented by granite effect work surfaces and splashback tiling. Appliances include a built-in electric hob with electric oven/grill below and integrated extractor hood above, free-standing washing machine, and upright fridge/freezer.  From the kitchen there is access to a rear vestibule which benefits from a walk-in storage cupboard and offers direct access to the garden.

Returning to the hall, a carpeted staircase with fixed handrail ascends to the first floor landing where there is a shelved airing cupboard housing the water cylinder.  Each of the three bedrooms can accommodate a double bed, and the two larger ones benefit from built-in storage facilities.  Completing the rooms is the fully tiled bathroom which is fitted with a pale coloured 3-piece suite, mirror-fronted medicine cabinet, chrome towel rail and co-ordinating accessories.

Outside, the front garden is laid in low maintenance patterned impressed concrete and enclosed by wrought iron railings, with stone steps leading to the front door.  The delightful rear garden is fully enclosed by wooden fencing and a gate opens onto a pedestrian path.  Well defined beds offer scope for planting vegetables, fruit, or shrubs and the remaining areas are laid in stone chips and patterned impressed concrete.  A particular feature of the garden is the bespoke hand-built shed which is in pristine order and affords storage space for tools, garden furniture and equipment.
