Description
Set on the sought-after Starbank Road in Trinity, this end-of-terrace home boasts uninterrupted, panoramic views across the Firth of Forth. The property enjoys a peaceful setting behind mature hedging that provides privacy without compromising the spectacular outlook.
Entered into a generous vestibule with two sizeable storage cupboards, ideal for coats, shoes, and outdoor gear. This leads through to an elegant and spacious entrance hall, bathed in natural light from an impressive overhead cupola. To the front, the sitting room enjoys stunning sea views and features a handsome fireplace and a large storage cupboard.
To the rear are two versatile rooms currently used as a family room and a home office, both of which could serve as additional bedrooms if desired. A convenient ground floor W.C. Completes the accommodation on this level.
A graceful, turned staircase leads to the first-floor landing, where the impressive proportions continue. The principal bedroom sits to the front and commands spectacular views over the water, while the adjacent family bathroom shares the same stunning outlook. Two further double bedrooms are located to the rear, and a centrally positioned walk-in store (formerly a bathroom) sits between them. This space has doors from both the front and rear bedrooms and could easily be reinstated as an en suite if desired, and further benefits from additional storage above.
The garden level offers a contemporary open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space, with doors opening directly onto the beautifully landscaped, south-facing rear garden.
A separate utility room with additional garden access offers further practicality for modern family life.
The garden is a tranquil and private haven, with a mix of mature planting, sunny seating areas, and a stone-built garden store. A rear pathway provides secure gated access to York Road, offering a convenient route for bicycles and garden access.
