Property description
Duncan Laing and RE/MAX Advantage are delighted to bring to the market this traditional 4 bedroom detached villa. In need of some upgrading and modernisation this property presents itself as an excellent opportunity to purchase a family home in a much sought after area where properties are seldom on the market.
The subjects are located in the popular Duddingston area of Edinburgh, which lies a short distance to the east of the city centre. The property is well- positioned to take advantage of an excellent range of shopping outlets in the vicinity, perhaps the most noteworthy being the Edinburgh Fort Kinnaird shopping and leisure complex, which includes Boots and Marks & Spencer retail outlets amongst many others and is only a few minutes drive away. There are well-reputed schools in the vicinity from nursery to senior level, with the Jewel and Esk Valley College on hand for the more mature student. The impressive Queen Margaret University Campus is just a little further afield. An efficient public transport network operates to most parts of the town and surrounding areas. The A1, City Bypass and main motorway networks are also within easy reach.
