A huge family home has hit the market in Edinburgh which guaranteed to be every child's dream.
The four-bedroom house in Lasswade, Midlothian, has now become available to purchase, with a closing date set for just a few days away. Located just a short drive from Edinburgh, the Victorian villa has a host of period features, and also boasts a huge garden on the edge of the countryside with some idyllic views.
However, it's not just the aesthetic that gives the property its edge, inside the home has some very unusual and quirky features that are sure to see it snapped up. On the ground floor, the house has a huge traditional kitchen that mirrors the farmhouse look, and even comes with its very own blue AGA oven and stove.
Coming with two reception rooms, the airy spaces both have huge windows which look out over the patio and garden, which is filled with trees, plants and greenery.

Although it is the final room on the ground floor that will really catch your attention, with the current owners installing a huge sloped floor to ceiling climbing wall inside it. Currently functioning as a games room, the space also features a ping pong table and a treadmill as well as the large climbing spectacle with crash mats below it.
Heading up the stairs, there are four beautiful bedrooms and another bathroom, which features a stunning green standalone bath. The main bedroom even has doors opening out onto a first floor balcony at the back of the house, which looks over the garden and beyond.
Currently on the market for offers over £750,000, letting agents Fraser Brooks & Co W.S said:
"A fabulous double fronted and extended Victorian villa in a prime edge of town location six miles south of Edinburgh City centre on the edge of the Esk valley in close proximity to Mavisbank House. It offers an attractive face to the street, sitting above and back from the road behind railings but keeps its best features private, hidden behind south-facing walled gardens.
"An attractive curved balcony sits over a similarly curved rear lobby and overlooks a paved courtyard accessed on all sides through wide glazed doors, perfect for indoor/outdoor living and which also creates a wonderful interior flow, from kitchen to living room, family room and dining room, perfect for entertaining.
"Like the rest of the house the designer kitchen is traditional with a modern twist. It also boasts a wine fridge, side-by-side fridge freezer with ice dispenser and a second electric Neff combination oven/microwave.
"On this level there is also a ground floor bedroom, a large walk-in shower room with power shower and underfloor heating and a utility room with stairs leading to a private study above. A curving oak staircase leads upstairs past another huge south facing window, to the upper floor, here you'll find three further double bedrooms. The main is dual aspect and enjoys access onto the balcony.
"Bedroom two has a large bay window and an Edinburgh press, bedroom three is dual aspect with built-in wardrobes. There is a large family bathroom with a free-standing bath. Outside formal top gardens consist of neat lawns and full borders, well established trees give privacy and conceal secluded seating areas.
"The hedges hide yet another amazing space, the large studio/games room/gym/store with patio area attached. Fully finished with 2 double sets of patio doors and a wood burner this really is a bonus for a growing family. Beyond that is yet another large lawned garden, fully enclosed with stone walls."
