23 Ellis Drive is a smart, well presented townhouse offering stylish, sophisticated accommodation over three beautiful floors. The property forms part of an attractive modern development in Longstone, to the west of the city centre and has views towards the Pentland Hills. The home is highly energy efficient and benefits from being part of a district heating scheme within the development, which provides all homes heating and hot water, of which the heating is controlled internally by Hive.
The front door opens onto the entrance area with storage cupboard, which in turn leads onto a contemporary open plan sitting / dining / kitchen area which creates the heart of the home for all of the inhabitants to congregate. There are separate spaces for lounge and dining areas, in addition to a stunning sleek kitchen, fitted with wall and base mounted cabinetry and contrasting worktops. The integrated appliances comprise: electric hob, extractor hood, oven and fridge/freezer. The room is flooded with natural light, provided by patio doors which open onto the rear garden.
On the first floor is a beautifully presented sitting room (with juliette balcony) and the principal double bedroom which benefits from an en-suite shower room. On the second floor (top) are two further double bedrooms. All three bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and soft carpet underfoot. The family bathroom completes the internal accommodation (with bath, WC and wash hand basin).
Externally there is a private south east facing garden, mainly laid to lawn with a patio area. Unrestricted parking is available within the development.
