🌿 257 Redford Road – A Home That Adapts To Your Family Life 🌿
If you have been searching for more space, more flexibility, and a lifestyle that combines village feel with city convenience, 257 Redford Road is a home that will immediately stand out.
Situated in the desirable Redford area of Colinton, this five-bedroom family home has been carefully designed to meet the needs of modern living. The ground floor offers a bright and welcoming living room and a dining room to the front, providing the perfect setting for family gatherings and quiet evenings alike. To the rear, the well-proportioned kitchen opens directly onto the garden, naturally becoming the hub of the home and a place where everyday routines blend seamlessly with time spent outdoors.
Two bedrooms on this level offer the flexibility that today’s buyers value so highly, whether used as comfortable guest rooms, a children’s playroom, or a dedicated home office. Upstairs, a dormer extension opens up three further bedrooms and a second bathroom, ensuring that every family member has a space to call their own.
The outdoor space is equally appealing. Private gardens to both the front and rear provide safe areas for children to play, opportunities for entertaining friends and family, and quiet corners to simply enjoy a moment of calm. A practical garden shed adds even more versatility, ideal for storing bikes, tools, and garden furniture, or easily transformed into a creative hobby space, home gym, or tranquil garden office.
The lifestyle that comes with this location is what makes the property truly special. Colinton is one of Edinburgh’s most sought-after neighbourhoods, offering a strong sense of community alongside excellent connectivity. Families benefit from easy access to respected local schools such as Colinton Primary and Firrhill High School, as well as highly regarded independent schools including George Watson’s College and Merchiston Castle School. For active households, Craiglockhart Sports Centre is just down the road, offering a wide range of fitness and leisure facilities.
The home does enjoy the convenience of unrestricted on-street parking and excellent bus connections across the city, perfect for families with older children or teenagers who want their own independence. Daily life is made even easier with three major supermarkets, Morrisons, Aldi and Tesco, all within walking distance.
For professionals and commuters, the city bypass, Edinburgh Airport and the city centre are all within easy reach, making travel simple and stress-free. For those working from home, the layout offers the perfect set-up for a dedicated office space. And at weekends, the Pentland Hills, Water of Leith walkway and the celebrated Colinton Tunnel mural provide endless opportunities for walking, cycling and outdoor adventure, all just minutes from your front door.
257 Redford Road is not just a house. It is a spacious, adaptable family home set in a thriving community, where the balance between peaceful surroundings and city life has been beautifully achieved.
