About this property

  • 8 Corrennie Gardens is a stunning upper flat occupying the first floor of an impressive detached Victorian villa offering generous room sizes, extensive storage and natural light throughout.

    To the rear, with an equally pleasant outlook, the elegant dining room leads to a well appointed kitchen with views to the south and the Pentland Hills.

    There are three double bedrooms one of which currently serves as a study.

    In addition there is a family bathroom. The property further benefits from a utility space and separate W.C adjacent to the kitchen.
