Description

Colinton Cottage is a sizeable detached family house designed by Sir Robert Lorimer, situated in a superb south and west-facing mature garden of almost 0.9 acres. The property, categorized as B Listed, offers spacious and comfortable accommodation over two floors, with many period features retained throughout, including fireplaces, woodwork, and leaded glass features. The house has a welcoming entrance hall, a sitting room with a south-facing picture window, a dining room with a working fire, and a study with exposed timber panelling and a log burning stove. The principal family living accommodation is situated at the other end of the house, with a family room, study area, and a kitchen with an Aga and ample space for a breakfasting table. The upper floor has five bedrooms, including a generously proportioned principal bedroom with far-reaching views to the Pentland Hills. The property also features a self-contained annexe, which has its own front door and access to the garden, and has previously been successfully let. The garden grounds are spectacular, with a sweeping lawn, a pond, and a walled garden, and there is potential for further development of an additional dwelling, subject to necessary permissions.
