Description
31 Groathill Road South is a stunning family home in Edinburgh's highly desirable Craigleith area.
The property has been lovingly and sensitively upgraded and extended by the current owners and now offers a fantastic, contemporary space both inside and out, perfect for entertaining and family life.
Entering a welcoming hallway, the main accommodation is located on the ground floor with the principle en-suite to one side, flanked by two further doubles on the other. Moving further along, one steps out to a galleried landing overlooking the magnificent dining space below. The cinema room / fourth bedroom is also accessed from this landing.
Descending the staircase to the dining area, one is met with an abundance of natural light from the double-height, dual aspect glazing. The living space is truly impressive, particularly when the bi-fold doors are open, providing a strong sense of connection with the outside space.
From the dining space, access can be gained to the cosy snug and the living room, which also benefits from doors leading to the decked area and enclosed private rear garden. This space features a 'sit-oot-erie' - a covered outdoor dining area - perfect for summer BBQs and drinks.
The property further benefits from a utility room, a driveway with parking for multiple cars and a garden room, currently set up as a home office.
31 Groathill Road South has been carefully thought out in its design, with generous proportions and ease of access throughout. It has a good level of specification, with high quality kitchen, flooring and lighting.
