    of the city’s shops, restaurants, bars, theatres and business districts. The area is well
    served by Sainsbury’s and Morrisons supermarkets, a selection of independent shops in
    Gilmerton and the Cameron Toll Shopping Centre.

    The property is surrounded by green open spaces including Burdiehouse Burn, Moredun
    Woods, Blackford Hill and the Pentland Hills which offer a variety of semi-rural walkways
    and cycle paths; whilst recreational facilities such as the Royal Commonwealth Pool,
    numerous golf courses, parks and the Midlothian Snowsports Centre at Hillend are also
    within easy reach.

    The property lies in the catchment for Gilmerton Primary School and Liberton High in the
    state sector with private options including George Heriots’, George Watson’s College and
    Merchiston Castle School in close proximity.

    Ellen’s Glen Loan is also convenient for Edinburgh and Napier Universities, the Royal
    Dick Veterinary College and The Royal Infirmary and has easy access to the city by-pass,
    Edinburgh International Airport and Central Scotland’s Motorway Network (M8, M9, M90
    and the Forth Road Bridge).

    DESCRIPTION:
    Burnside Cottage is a handsome detached stone cottage which began life as the old
    Toll House on Mayfield Road. It was moved, stone by stone, in the early 1900s to its
    riverside location on Ellen’s Glen Loan and has recently been sympathetically extended
    and beautifully refurbished. The property is accessed by electric security gates and
    surrounded by easily maintained, south west facing gardens which are bordered by the
    Burdiehouse Burn.

    The property is the perfect antidote to city living and boasts original charm and character,
    luxurious contemporary fittings, immaculate interiors and generously proportioned
    accommodation as follows:

        ceilings and skylights. The hallway limed oak flooring
    •   Elegant sitting room with vaulted ceiling, four sets of traditional casement style doors
        which open on to the gardens; hardwood flooring, an attractive tiled fireplace and

        on to the garden. The kitchen boasts a range of shaker style wall and base units;
        solid oak worktops; Belfast sink; larder cupboard and integrated oven, induction
        hob, washing machine, dishwasher and fridge-freezer. The dining/family room is a
