When it comes to Georgian architecture, Edinburgh's New Town is a celebrated example of the period style. Built between 1765 and 1850, the whole of the area is a protected UNESCO site and is a popular pilgrimage for architecture buffs and historians. When CALA Homes decided to create a new development on the fringes of Edinburgh's New Town, the obvious choice was to pay respect to the area's history. Its Trinity Park development offers the What House? Award-winning ‘Georgian Villa'. Inspired by the surrounding architecture, the property type was crowned Best House at the 2012 awards.
The contemporary villas have large open plan family dining kitchen area with tri-fold doors overlooking the garden. They also have a study and utility room with integrated garage. The first floor has a galleried landing leading to a spacious drawing room which has its own terrace. Also on this floor are the family room, a bedroom and a shower room. On the second floor are two further large bedrooms, the family bathroom and the master bedroom with en suite and dressing area.
The kitchen has AEG appliances, a full larder and separate fridge and freezer, along with a central island with additional socket points. The sanitaryware is Villeroy and Bosch and the showers and taps are Hansgrohe. The property has an enclosed back garden with 1800mm feather edged fence, decked patio area, and turf to rear garden.
Trinity Park aims to emulate the space and scope of traditional building design with classic facades, high-proportioned doors and ceilings, but the properties also contain ultra-modern kitchens, convenient en suites and open-plan living space. The development has a limited release of only 81 properties.
Just off one of the key routes into the heart of Edinburgh in a prestigious area of the city, CALA Homes' development Trinity Park offers residents one of the capital's premium postcodes. While only a short journey away from everything Edinburgh has to offer, the development is also surrounded by local amenities.
The ‘Georgian Villas' from CALA Homes are available from £745,000.
