The nearby Eskbank train station provides easy access to Edinburgh city centre, making this location attractive to commuters.

The surrounding area appears well-maintained and visually appealing, contributing to a positive overall location score.

The property includes a well-maintained garden, visible in the provided images. The garden is a significant asset, adding to the overall appeal and value of the property. The size of the garden, while not specified numerically, appears to be sufficient for comfortable outdoor living.

The list price of £650,000 for a 2,039 sq ft detached house in Lasswade seems reasonable when compared to the average price per sq ft in the area (£314.00). While the average house price in the area is significantly lower (£244,294), this is likely due to a mix of property types, with the average sq ft being considerably smaller (776 sq ft). Considering the property’s size, condition, location, and inclusion of a garden, the list price appears to be in line with or slightly below market value for similar properties in the area. Nearby comparable properties support this assessment, with similar-sized detached properties listed at comparable or higher prices. The lack of plot size information in the listing prevents a more precise calculation of price per sq ft for a direct comparison to similar properties.

Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
