Description

25 Craigleith Drive is an outstanding, four bedroom detached family house in the highly desirable residential area of Ravelston. This impeccably presented family home has been extensively refurbished and is immaculate throughout.

Arranged over two levels, the property offers spacious, flexible accommodation and could have five comfortable bedrooms if required. Currently configured as a three bedroom home with a living room, games room and spectacular open plan living / kitchen / dining space which can be completely opened at the rear to the garden through bi-fold doors.

On the ground floor access is through a useful vestibule into a spacious hallway off which the accommodation radiates. To the rear of the house is the heart of the home, a breath-taking open plan kitchen / living / family room benefiting from three sets of bi-fold doors allowing the space to transition seamlessly onto the deck and the enclosed south facing rear garden beyond. This space is equally perfect for entertaining (helped by the integrated ceiling speakers) and for cosy family nights at home.

The kitchen provides ample work and storage space with numerous base and wall-mounted units. There is also a kitchen island with breakfast bar to one side, bathed in natural light from the overhead skylight.

Adjacent to this room is the games room currently housing a pool table but which would serve equally well as a snug, bedroom or home office depending on requirements. This room benefits from a glazed door providing access to the rear garden.

There is also access from the kitchen to the garage which has been cleverly split to provide a utility room space together with ample storage for all the necessary family paraphernalia such as bikes, golf clubs etc.

To the front of the house is the spacious living room with a bay window overlooking the front garden together with a feature fireplace.

On the other side of the hallway is the principal suite, a generously sized bedroom complete with a well appointed en suite shower room and a separate walk-in wardrobe.

Completing the ground floor is a spacious family bathroom complete with bath and separate shower. These room also benefits from built in speakers linked to a Sonos sound system.

The staircase ascends to the first floor landing where two further double bedrooms are located together with a shower room benefiting from 'Jack-and-Jill' access from both the hallway and one of the bedrooms. There is plenty of storage space available for both these bedrooms with one providing built-in wardrobes along the west wall and the other benefiting from direct access to a large loft space. This space has previously been used as a den.

There is, in addition, a generous storage area in the eaves accessed mid-way up the stairs.

Externally 25 Craigleith Drive is as impressive as it is inside with a beautifully manicured rear garden with the preferred south aspect with sun for the majority of the day together with an attractive front garden. There is also a driveway providing off street parking and access to the garage.
