Positioned at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac 21 Carlingnose Way is an impressive detached villa, finished to the highest specification and is in excellent decorative order throughout.
The layout of the accommodation has been thoughtfully designed to provide light and spacious rooms that are flexible in their use, and many of the rooms have been positioned to enjoy the full impact of the panoramic views. In addition to the generous drawing room and library there is a separate dining room, family room and snooker room. The kitchen is fully fitted and has steps leading down to a comfortable breakfast room, with doors giving direct access into the garden. Reached by a superb oak staircase, the spacious master bedroom has an en suite bathroom and large dressing room. The dressing room was originally designed to be the fifth bedroom, and with minimum work and subject to any planning permissions being granted, could easily be converted back into its planned use. There are a further two double bedrooms that share the spacious family bathroom, as well as guest room with en suite shower room.
21 Carlingnose Way was built by premier house builder Manor Kingdom approximately thirteen years ago and enjoys a spectacular location overlooking the Firth of Forth.
North Queensferry is set against the backdrop of the Forth rail and road bridges and is a small conservation village which has a long history as a ferry port and more recently has developed into a thriving community and tourist resort. The village caters for most everyday requirements including a shop, community centre, hotels and a primary school. There are two excellent restaurants in the village. Leisure facilities include a sailing club in the village with more extensive sailing facilities at Port Edgar. Fife boasts some of the best golf courses in Scotland, with the local courses at Dunfermline and Aberdour being within easy reach.
North Queensferry is an ideal commuter base with quick access to the M90 motorway (1 ½ miles) linking the cities of Edinburgh and Perth. Inverkeithing railway station (2 miles) offers frequent trains on the East Coast main line, while North Queensferry Station runs regular trains to Edinburgh’s city centre. Edinburgh airport is also within a short drive (11 miles) and offers a full range of domestic and international flights.
There is a “park and ride” within a few minutes’ drive of the house with regular buses to central Edinburgh and throughout Scotland. Several of Edinburgh’s private schools, for example Stewart’s Melville College and Cargilfield School, run a dedicated bus service to and from Inverkeithing.
21 Carlingnose Way sits within mature and well designed gardens. The garden to the rear is laid to lawn and is surrounded by many flowering shrubs, bushes and small trees. There is a large patio area designed to make the most of the views to both the garden and Forth beyond. The garden is fully enclosed making it ideal for children and pets alike. To the side is a large fully enclosed kitchen garden.
