Description

Flat 2, 38 Barnton Avenue is a charming upper villa set in a leafy and quiet location in the sought after Barnton district. The property is well maintained and immaculately presented, offering spacious and flexible accommodation that spans over two floors. The elegant reception and generous living spaces are complimented by three bedrooms and two bathrooms, comfortably accommodating to a variety living scenarios and buyers.

With predominant aspects facing south, east and west, the property benefits from plenty of natural light throughout the day. The west-facing aspects show clear views of the fairways at Bruntsfield Links and the wonderful open parkland views can be enjoyed from here too. The grand and spacious entrance hall has previously been used to host large dinner parties and from here, a staircase gives access to the second floor accommodation. Skylights flood the uppermost space with natural light.

The property has been in the same ownership for over 40 years and has undergone significant upgrading and renovation during this time. The property would now benefit from a degree of modernisation and has great potential to be an excellent home. The upper most storey also offers a prime opportunity for redevelopment (subject to the necessary consents).

The house sits back from the road with a well maintained driveway leading to the front door and a detached double garage. To the rear, a private, west-facing garden is accessed via a gate, characterised by its generous size and colourful borders.
