"Internally, the house provides a perfect balance of accommodation. The entrance and grand staircase set the tone for the well-proportioned rooms and leads on to the principal reception rooms. The drawing room is an exceptional room on a grand scale and lends itself to entertaining.

"The space is flooded with natural light and has an attractive fireplace as the focal point at one end and a bay window at the other. Also to the front of the house is the dining room which is another beautiful reception room with an intricate cornice and a spectacular bay window with south-facing views of The Pentland Hills."
