Description
Description
25 Mansionhouse Road is a charming double fronted semi-detached house occupying a generous and private, mature corner plot. Facing both east and west, the property benefits from plenty of natural light throughout the day, with delightful views towards Arthur's Seat and across Grange Cemetery from the upper level. The house retains much of its original charm with a variety of period features, including astragal windows, plasterwork, stone stair, timber flooring and marble mantelpieces. While potentially requiring some modernisation, this represents an excellent opportunity to create a wonderful family home.
The front door opens to an entrance vestibule and on to a welcoming hall, from where the principal accommodation radiates and the original stone stair rises to the upper floor. The elegant drawing room is situated to the north side of the hall and flows from front to back with windows to both east and west making it a particularly bright room. There is decorative cornicing and an impressive grey marble mantelpiece. The dining room is situated on the other side of the hallway and again benefits from decorative cornicing and a black marble mantelpiece. The breakfasting kitchen sits behind the dining room, facing west and is a spacious room with ample space for informal dining. A cloakroom/WC provide access to the recently fitted Mozolowski and Murray conservatory, with delightful views of and access out to the west facing walled garden. A utility room is accessed via the kitchen and leads through to a study/playroom, which has been used as a sewing room and recently for storage.
The stair rises to the upper level where the landing opens to the bedroom accommodation. The principal bedroom is situated to the rear of the property, overlooking the garden, and is a generously proportioned bedroom benefiting from an en suite shower room. There are three further comfortable double bedrooms on this level, although one of these is currently used as a study. These bedrooms are served by a principal shower room, and there are further storage cupboards also. There is further extensive storage space in the attic.
The house sits well back from the quiet road, set behind a mature beech hedge. A gated path leads to the front door, while there is an easily maintained front garden providing colour and privacy. To the north of the house gates open to a large off-street parking area and double car port. The grounds extend round the north side of the house with a variety of mature trees providing extensive colour and excellent privacy, as well as protecting the house from the adjacent road. The garden to the rear is magnificent. There is a generous lawn bounded by well-stocked borders with a wide variety of mature plants, shrubs and trees. There is a greenhouse which faces south while there is also a large potting shed which extends from the outshoot from the kitchen, and could provide excellent development potential, subject to the necessary consents. The garden is set behind a high stone wall which not only gives excellent privacy but makes it very peaceful.
Location
Mansionhouse Road is located at the heart of the Grange, a very well-established residential suburb of Edinburgh, just over one mile drive south of the city centre. The road has little through traffic.
The popularity of the area is accounted for not only by its pleasant, quiet and leafy streets, but also by its convenient location for access to schools, local amenities and road links both in and out of town.
Nearby Bruntsfield, Morningside and Newington provide a wealth of charming local shops, bars, cafes and restaurants, along with a cinema, theatre and a choice of supermarkets.
There are a number of independent schools on the south side of the city, including George Watson's, George Heriot’s and Merchiston Castle School which are all within easy reach, as well as The Edinburgh Academy, St. George’s and Erskine Stewart’s Melville Schools also readily accessible.
