Ann Street, Edinburgh, Midlothian, EH4

Immaculately presented and wonderfully charming Georgian house over three floors, on one of Edinburgh's most prestigious streets.

Description

This is a wonderful example of a fine four storey Georgian townhouse presented in immaculate order throughout. The property offers elegantly proportioned rooms and retains much of its period charm with a range of delightful features. The features include the delicate cornicing, marble mantelpieces and the impressive turnpike staircase. The property is perfectly orientated to take advantage of natural light throughout the day, with north east and south west aspects and a delightful outlooks over the well-tended gardens to the front.

The front door opens to a wonderfully welcoming hall, from where the ground floor accommodation is accessed and where the stair rises to the first floor, as well as descending to the lower ground floor. To the front is an elegant sitting room with two astragal windows, a delightful black marble mantelpiece and a working log burning stove. To the rear lies the fifth bedroom with a beautifully appointed bathroom adjacent. The stair is crowned by a skylight which makes it a wonderfully bright space. The principal bedroom is situated at first floor level at the front of the house, and has three astragal windows as well as a charming marble mantelpiece with a working log burning stove and delicate cornicing. It also benefits from a luxurious en suite shower room. The second bedroom is situated to the rear of the house and there is also a fully fitted dressing room. The stair continues to rise to the second floor where there are two further bedrooms, an additional bathroom and a large storage cupboard.

At lower ground floor level there is a superb, and beautifully appointed, high specification kitchen with open plan dining area with fitted bench seating. A set of steps leads up into the glazed garden room, which is a delightful place to sit and take in the afternoon and evening sunlight. From here, glazed double doors open to the rear patio garden. It is a remarkably private space set within attractive stone walls and offering a low maintenance area, ideal for external dining in the warmer months.

The garden to the front is particularly charming. It is well stocked with a variety of mature plants and shrubs and in the borders surrounding the central lawn. A tree stands close by the garden gate and pathway which leads from the street to the front door.

Occupants may apply for a key to the wonderful Dean Gardens, situated to the south end of Ann Street, on application and payment of a modest annual fee. Keys are subject to availability and there may be a waiting list.
