"Fulford Cottage is a charming period home offering nearly 2,200 sq ft of versatile living space across two floors.

The ground floor begins with a welcoming entrance hall featuring an exposed stone wall, leading into a large L shaped front aspect sitting room with a wood lined ceiling and original stone inglenook fireplace housing a woodburning stove. Adjacent is a spacious, triple aspect dining room with quarry tiled flooring, another woodburning stove and French doors that open onto the garden terrace.

The generous kitchen breakfast room includes a range of fitted units, an Aga, complementary work surfaces and built in window seating for informal dining. A door leads to an additional reception room with a wood lined en suite cloakroom and double doors that open into a conservatory. The conservatory, with picture windows on three sides, a glazed roof and French doors, provides seamless indoor outdoor living.

Upstairs, the accommodation is bright and airy, with some rooms enhanced by elevated ceiling heights. A spacious landing, currently used for freestanding storage, leads to a dual aspect principal bedroom with fitted storage and a stylish en suite bathroom that includes both a bath and a separate shower. There are three further double bedrooms, one of which connects to a large dressing room currently used as a home office. A well appointed family bathroom completes the upper floor.

The property is set behind picket fencing with mature hedging and is approached via an unmade lane and private side driveway, offering ample off street parking and access to the attached garage and neighbouring carport. Both have rear access to the garden and a timber built workshop.

The well maintained, wraparound garden, one of the home s standout features, surrounds the property on three sides. It includes gently sloping lawns, well stocked flower and shrub beds, gravel paths, seating areas, a generous paved terrace ideal for outdoor dining, a log store, and a spacious workshop on a paved base. Mature trees and shrubs offer privacy, and the garden borders scenic open grazing land within the Pentland Hills Regional Park.
