A modern five-bedroom Edinburgh property with great views of the Pentland Hills from the back garden has gone on the market, but surely not for long given its impressive backdrop.
The home, on Dreghorn Link, Colinton, has been "significantly upgraded" to include a modern finish, and the building is a unique shape which adds to the contemporary feel.
The home comes with two garages attached to the building and a sloped roof with a castle-like turret on the right side. Rightmove describe the property as "significantly upgraded executive style detached villa with mono-block driveway, integral double garage and south/west facing back garden, commanding glorious views to the Pentland Hills and forming part of an exclusive, seldom available modern development."

All of the rooms within the property, including three bathrooms, are incredibly spacious and perfect for a large family. There is a small front garden patch and slabs leading round to the garden at the rear, with a large grassed area and the aforementioned backdrop of Edinburgh's largest mountain range.
Upon entry to the house, the first sitting room is located on the right hand side of the ground floor. The room is bright and offers space for family activities and a traditional fireplace. Moving through to the kitchen and everyone's favourite addition of a middle island separates the cooking area from the dining table.
The huge island provides a food preparation area, as well as integrated appliances maximising space, with a wall-length unit containing the oven and microwave, as well as further cupboards and a pull-out larder. Opposite the kitchen island, a large dining table with chairs on one side and a bench on the other is situated.
To the left of the kitchen, a conservatory with views of the back garden also provides a great space to relax and enjoy the summer weather, with doors opening out onto the garden. A 'play room' rounds off the ground floor, with two gaming chairs and a TV accompanied by plenty opportunity for storage and flexibility as to what else the room can be utilised for, including the possibility of a sixth bedroom.
On the first floor, all five double bedrooms are present, the master being a fabulous suite comprising a light filled bedroom, a walk-in dressing area and an impressive upgraded shower room with a walk-in shower and neat marble units. Upgrading works carried out over the course of the last few years include the installation of new kitchen, bathroom, en-suite and WC facilities.
The classically proportioned guest bedroom has its own renewed en-suite and the accommodation is completed by a luxurious family bathroom with four piece suite.
The exterior of the property includes a patio area to the side for outdoor dining and relaxing, as well as the double garage providing even more storage opportunities and an electric charging point. The outdoor dining area also provides the best view of the Pentland Hills, one of the property's main selling points.
As you can expect, a property of such statue and jaw-dropping views does not come cheap. Offers for this family home are starting over £680,000. To view the home in full, you can do so here.
