whiteh i˜ wood woods - whitehill homes · care has been taken to allow the spaces to blend into...
TRANSCRIPT
Whitehill Woods offers discerning home buyers a remarkable opportunity to be part of a truly special, secluded country estate, with spectacular views and less than thirty minutes from the centre of Edinburgh.
This unique new development is set within the grounds of Whitehill House, one of Scotland’s great Tudor
Jacobean revival houses, designed by the renowned architect William Burn (1789-1870) for Lord Ramsay.
The estate is set beside the picturesque Whitehill House Golf Course designed by the eminent Swiss golf
course architect, John Chilver-Stainer, providing the backdrop to the entire site, with a new Club House
incorporating a small bar and café, to which residents are welcome.
DESIGN ETHOS
A number of eminent architects came together to design this challenging project, set in the grounds of
the Whitehill Estate, with significant woodland and rural features.
A high quality design respectful of its setting has been created using larch timber cladding and
amorphous shapes that fit the woodland and open spaces.

All the properties are built to an exacting performance standard with environmentally friendly insulation and triple glazing throughout. Care has been taken to allow the spaces to blend into the surrounding landscape.
The green spaces of the gardens flow naturally into the parkland and create the vision that the garden
is part of the countryside. At the same time, the needs of many of the facilities demanded by modern
living have been addressed with exceptional space standards, provision of plentiful storage, large garages
with space for recreation, workshops, etc and large utility rooms with direct access to both the garage
and outside space.
Wide hallways and open galleries offer flexible circulation space. An abundance of light is brought into
the properties with the use of large windows and doorway openings throughout.
Whitehill Woods offers all the pleasures of true country living and yet is remarkably close to the centre of Edinburgh. It is ideally suited for commuters, with Edinburgh International Airport easily accessed from the City Bypass.

LIFESTYLE
There are good schools in the area, but the real magic of Whitehill Woods lies in the extraordinary diversity of activities that are right on your doorstep. There really is something special for everyone here.
With Whitehill Golf Course adjacent, keen golfers have the ideal opportunity to play. There are also a
wide range of lovely walks in our woods, which adjoin the property, and the Esk Valley Trail is close by.
For the more energetic buyer there are excellent mountain biking trails in the surrounding countryside,
and for those who enjoy horse riding, Thornton Farm stables are but a stone’s throw away. Whitehill
Woods is the perfect location for children to enjoy the wonders of the countryside and join in the regular
outdoor activities organised within the local community.
Slightly further afield you will find a multitude of diversions from the fascinating National Mining Museum
right through to world famous historic sites such as Rosslyn Chapel.
Local shopping is excellent with all the major supermarkets close by – Tesco, Sainsburys. Morrisons and
M&S, as well as Straiton Retail Park.

Careful consideration has been given to vehicle access and parking, large private areas are set aside at
the front of each house to allow ample space for parking for visitors and residents.
Road surfaces are all new but are confined to a rural scale, with sustainable urban drainage providing the
surface water and roof drainage which escapes via filtration beds into the local river.
The gardens are designed to flow into the natural countryside and allow a feeling of space. Provision has
been made for those who have green fingers to indulge themselves in gardening areas to the side and
rear of the house without impact on the quality of the environment. Otherwise the gardens are designed
to be easily maintained.
Within Whitehill Woods the prevailing atmosphere is intensely calm. It is detached, serene, and yet all
the amenities one could want are very close to hand – and the city centre is less than half an hour away.

The four bedroom Wardlaw is one
of the larger homes that we offer
and has been built to the most
exacting specifications. The defining
characteristic of the magnificent
interior is the beautifully spacious
open plan living, dining, kitchen
area with panoramic views towards
the golf course. This is luxurious
yet simple living at its very best.
A space in which one can entertain
and yet feel totally relaxed. At the
same time, you will find that we have
spared no expense in the fixtures and
fittings – understated, superb quality
throughout, from the natural slate
roof and timber cladding, zinc gutters
and maintenance free lead fascias
right through to the humblest taps we
have sourced materials of exceptional
quality which will withstand the
rigours of the Scottish climate and
which will mellow beautifully with
time. The Wardlaw has underfloor
heating throughout the ground floor
area which is not only highly energy
efficient but which lends the house
an immediate atmosphere of warmth
and welcome. Every detail has been
considered – form and function
perfectly combined.
