Victorian villas can be found throughout many established Edinburgh residential neighbourhoods and vary from relatively restrained stone houses to large properties with elaborate architectural detailing.
Typical features can include bay windows, decorative cornicing, ceiling roses, fireplaces, timber staircases, sash and case windows and substantial entrance halls. Many also have larger gardens and plots that offer opportunities for extensions and alterations.
Renovation projects commonly combine restoration of original features with new kitchens, bathrooms, structural alterations, improved services and extensions designed to create more practical contemporary living spaces.
