About this listing
88 Comiston Drive is a beautiful 4-bedroom terraced house located in a highly sought-after yet peaceful area of Morningside, offering excellent schooling, transport links, and a wide variety of amenities. With its generous accommodation, fine period details, and lovingly-maintained gardens, we anticipate the property to be of particular interest to families and early viewings are highly recommended to fully appreciate what is on offer. Accommodation Ground floor The property is accessed via an attractive gated front garden and comprises, on the ground floor, a welcoming entrance vestibule with beautiful Victorian mosaic tiling. A glass door then opens into a broad reception hall, which gives way to the ground-floor accommodation while a wooden staircase rises to the upper floor. Positioned to the front of the property, a spacious South-facing sitting room is bathed in natural light from its elegant bay window. A marble-encased fireplace with a gas-fire insert creates a charming focal point, while ornate cornicing and decorative framing further elevate the room. A useful built-in cupboard also provides additional storage. To the rear, an elegant dining room with extensive storage enjoys delightful views of the garden and showcases a striking wood-burning stove set against elegant tiling, as well as a lovely Victorian tile frieze. The dining room then opens to a bright, dual-aspect kitchen, fully appointed with sleek worktops and offering direct garden access. Also looking to the garden is a generous double bedroom 4, featuring an ornate period fireplace. Equally suited as a home office, family room, or additional reception space, it offers excellent flexibility to accommodate changing family needs. Completing the ground floor is a modern shower room with walk-in shower, cupboard, wash hand basin, bidet, and wc. First floor The first floor is centred around a spacious landing, illuminated by a skylight and complemented by three cupboards. To the front of the property, the impressive South-facing double bedroom 1 creates an elegant and generously proportioned principal bedroom. A beautiful bay window floods the room with natural light, while fine period features, including ornate cornicing, an intricate cast-iron fireplace with tiled hearth, and wooden flooring, further enhance its timeless character. To the rear, two additional spacious double bedrooms overlook the garden. Both retain attractive period fireplaces and provide comfortable, yet versatile accommodation, ideal for growing families or hosting guests. Finally, a tiled family bathroom offers a shower over bath, wash hand basin, and wc. Garden The property enjoys a welcoming South-facing front garden with excellent natural sunlight throughout the day. Set behind a traditional stone boundary with iron railings and a gate, the garden is mainly laid to gravel with flowering plantings and a mature tree adding colour and a stronger sense of privacy from the street, while a paved pathway leads to the front entrance. To the rear, a large paved terrace with a lovely greenhouse and central planting bed provide ample space for 'al fresco' dining, relaxing, and entertaining. Stone steps then lead to a generous expanse of lawn attractively framed by luxuriant flowering plants and trees, perfect for children to play. A large shed also provides additional storage. Fully enclosed by stone walls, the rear garden is a strong asset of the property and offers a versatile outdoor space that is as suited to family life as it is for entertaining or enjoying a peaceful retreat in nature. Parking There is unrestricted and permit parking on Comiston Drive. A separate private garage with off-street parking for one car is also available by separate negotiation.
