A charming Edinburgh coach house has hit the market with an incredible history spanning back over 200 years.
The three-bedroom house was thought to have been first built around the early 1800s, with some extensions and more modern additions added on over time.
Once part of a larger estate, the smaller cottage is accessed by its own private driveway off the main road, and is just a short walk away from the Water of Leith.

However, despite being a distance from the city centre, the adorable property doesn't come cheap - with an asking price of offers over £535,000.
Set over two floors, the building's interior has been kept modern and up to date, with a newer conservatory added on in recent years to allow for some extra space.

As well as three well-sized bedrooms, there are two bathrooms and a reception room with a stunning and original fireplace.
Outside, the house has a large patio garden that is opened out onto from the conservatory, as well as a large green and landscaped lawn.
