Set back from and above Edgeware Road to carve out serene seclusion amongst its lush plantings; Braidwood soothes the soul from the start, charms with every step and finishes with a surprise self-contained studio to supplement your income or welcome the oldest generation of the family.
The story goes that this C1930-built character home belonged to a local nurseryman, ensuring even the most casual of green thumbs will appreciate the prolific pin oaks, azaleas and rhododendrons that greet you on the short walk around a circular driveway.
A fitting prelude to a home with a garden view from every room, not to mention the polished timber floors, leadlight windows, lofty decorative ceilings and cosy fireplaces that make this solar-powered haven get better with age.
Whether it's the sunroom that connects to the master ensuite, the rear lounge room or the three alfresco patios that feature in the tiered rear gardens; if you like nothing more than doing not much at all, there's a space for you here.
When you feel like doing something, why not get creative in a country-style open-plan kitchen with timber tops, breakfast bar and decorative pressed metal details.
Boasting its own kitchen, as well as a bathroom, bedroom and living zone; that self-contained cottage carries with it the same charm as the main home, while giving you that extra, valuable flexibility.
Just 12 minutes from the Tollgate and a walk from Aldgate village and Stirling's version beyond, Braidwood's seclusion is far from isolated - and exactly where you want it. Welcome.
