Description
Enjoying a stunning elevated position offering far-reaching panoramic views, Northfield is situated on the edge of the much sought-after and picturesque conservation village of Balerno that sits in the shadow of the majestic Pentland Hills.
The six-bedroom mansion spans over 6,600 square feet and has a two-bedroomed Gardener’s Cottage hidden discreetly in one corner of the stunning landscaped grounds that feature a wonderful mix of wooded, landscaped and formal gardens.
Arranged over three levels, the handsome family house features a wealth of period features including original fireplaces, sash and case windows, a servant bell call system as well as several unique and quirky design features added by the architect himself.
Examples of these include the carved monogrammed datestone plaque and the Portuguese tiled feature of Madonna della Catena above the front door, the hidden panelled cupboard in the drawing room, and the grape motifs that decorate the exterior drainpipes. Of particular design note is the barrel-vaulted wood-panelled drawing room that spans the full length of the house.
The Property is ideally located for access to the Gyle, Gogarburn and Edinburgh Park. The City Bypass is within a couple of miles, providing excellent access to the airport and teh Central Scotland Motorway network.
