Description

36 St John’s Road is an impressive, six bedroom detached family home located in the highly regarded Corstorphine area. Offering over 2,800 square feet of flexible living space, this property is set over two floors and has retained its delightful period charm. Extensive front and rear gardens have been evidently well-maintained and enjoy respective southerly and northerly aspects for sunshine throughout the day.

The front door opens to a vestibule, complete with original floor tiles, leading into a characterful and inviting hallway from which the accommodation flows. The spectacular living/dining room occupies a generous space on the ground floor. Intricate cornicing, wood panelling and a large south-facing bay window make this a standout room for both relaxing and entertaining. Also accessed from the main hallway are three generously sized double bedrooms with high ceilings and large windows allowing for plenty of light. A bright and well-appointed kitchen with ample seating space is ideally suited for informal dining and benefits from direct access to the colourful rear garden.

A wide staircase with spectacular stain-glass window floods the area with light and brings you to the first floor. A further three spacious double bedrooms and convenient kitchenette on this level create a flexible living space.

A study room is perfectly situated with a front garden outlook while allowing the option to work from the comfort of your home.

Externally, front and rear gardens with a variety of mature and colourful plants and shrubs make this a space to enjoy year round. There is off-street parking for several vehicles by way of a long driveway and gravel area to the rear of the property.
