A beautifully presented second-floor flat forming part of an elegant sandstone tenement in one of Edinburgh’s most sought-after locations, just a short walk from the city centre.
This impressive two-bedroom plus boxroom apartment offers approximately 1,024 sq ft of charming living space, blending tasteful modern touches with stunning original period features such as ornate cornicing and original fireplaces.
Set within leafy surroundings, every room enjoys a green outlook. The elegant sitting room features twin sash-and-case windows and a striking fireplace, while the generous dining kitchen is fitted with a range of units and includes a gas range cooker with extractor hood, freestanding fridge/freezer, and washing machine. Additional features include a traditional clothes pulley and a spacious walk-in cupboard.
Both double bedrooms are generously sized and feature beautiful fireplaces. Off the sitting room is a versatile boxroom currently used as a home office. The bathroom, complete with window, offers a shower-over-bath arrangement.
The property benefits from gas central heating and a recently installed boiler (circa 4 years ago), with refurbished sash-and-case windows completed at the same time.
Externally, there is a well-maintained communal rear garden. Residents also have the option to apply for access to the exclusive Regent, Royal, and Carlton Terrace Gardens for a modest annual fee. These 11-acre private gardens include a tennis court, putting green, adventure playground, and direct access to Calton Hill.
Permit and metered on-street parking is available.
