Cupboard love in Kirkliston

Storage space can be a bone of contention with those moving into new houses but at Walker Group’s Ellwood development in Kirkliston, buyers have been impressed by the newly released three-bedroomed Kennedy house type, with generous cupboards in the lounge and hall.

Priced at £252,000, the Kennedy has a hallway, a front-facing lounge and a large kitchen with dining area. Upstairs the master has an ensuite, there are two further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Sandy Casey, director of Walker Group, said: “The storage space is one of the big attractions of the Kennedy.

“Although often overlooked when choosing a new home, having enough and the right kind of storage can be a crucial element for a happy home.

“Having a cupboard in the hall where you can store your vacuum cleaner, coats, jackets and shoes or even pushchair is a huge help in ensuring your home is free of clutter and chaos.”

Casey says of the Kennedy home: “The additional closet in the lounge is great for storing books, magazines, DVDS, board games and even your knitting.”
