Exceptionally large and imposing B-listed Victorian villa which boasts one of the most coveted and affluent residential addresses in the city’s South Side. Situated on a peaceful leafy street within the Merchiston Conservation Area, the substantial detached family home offers spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over three floors, including up to six bedrooms, two formal reception rooms, a contemporary dining kitchen and a formal dining room. Additionally, there is a guest suite at the rear of the property.
The grey sandstone property is of great architectural significance having been originally built as a private family home in the late 1860s and subsequently, becoming the home to St Denis & Cranley, a private girl’s school, for five decades during the 20th century. The house shares a similar design to other properties in Merchiston featuring elaborate French-styled ceiling plasterwork.
Of particular design note at 5 Ettrick Road is the sweeping central stone staircase backed by the magnificent stained-glass window. The guest suite, which can be accessed from the reception hall, offers good-sized accommodation over two levels and benefits from a private entrance to the rear of the property.
Spanning nearly 6,000 square feet, the property boasts a wealth of period features including original fireplaces, sash and case windows and ornate cornicework. Despite the feeling of a large country house, the property lies within walking distance of a wide range of excellent local amenities, restaurants, cafes and shops in Bruntsfield and Morningside and several well-regarded schools.
It is well positioned for public transport to the city centre, which lies less than two miles away, and the city bypass accessing Edinburgh International Airport and Scotland’s main motorway routes is within easy reach.
