Adventure seekers will love the new show home launched by Dandara East Scotland at Shawfair, just six miles from the Capital and within easy reach of the coast. Taking inspiration from the wealth of activities on offer nearby, the Iona from the new Island collection of homes features a sports themed bedroom along with a playroom for little explorers.
Offering country living on Edinburgh’s doorstep, Shawfair is the ideal place to live, work and play, with a vibrant and sustainable new town centre now taking shape and schools, shops and offices planned for the leafy area which has an impressive network of walks and cycle paths.
Lisa Archibald, Head of Sales at Dandara East Scotland, said: “Shawfair is one of the best-connected new towns in Scotland, just a quarter of an hour train journey to the Capital and has a wealth of attractions nearby from the sandy beach at Portobello to Dalkeith Country Park. Our designers Signature Interiors have done an amazing job giving a real flavour of the lifestyle on offer at Shawfair.”
At the heart of the four bedroom Iona showhome is the open plan lounge, kitchen with breakfast and dining area in soft coastal tones of blue and beige. This welcoming space is ideal for entertaining friends and family, as the host can easily chat with guests while putting the finishing touches to that Master Chef worthy meal. A downstairs cloakroom and integral garage with utility space completes the ground floor.
Upstairs the principal bedroom is a place to escape from the pressures of daily life with its soothing ivory walls and full-length curtains framing the mocha velvet bed with its linen textured bedcovers. Driftwood pattern side tables add to the romance of this lovely room, which has its own ensuite shower-room. The second bedroom amplifies the pale blues and beiges of the lounge with a tan leather chevron headboard and royal blue geometric bedcovers, with bronze lamps and accessories adding an extra sprinkle of glamour.
The teenagers’ room is a winter sports enthusiast’s dream with a full-size mural of a snow boarder in action against a dazzling azure sky. With Midlothian Ski Centre just seven miles away, the development is ideally placed for thrillseekers keen to practice their jumps and tricks. Little ones will love travelling the world in their imaginations in the explorer themed bedroom with its map wallpaper, jungle expedition tent and cuddly giraffes, lions and monkeys.
This house style has proven so popular that it has now sold out at Shawfair but will be available for sale at nearby developments Eskbank Gardens, Ashgrove and also at Foxhall Gait in Kirkliston. Househunters can still view the Iona at Shawfair!
