Set on the ground floor of a handsome sandstone crescent, this exceptionally large two-bedroom freehold flat combines striking period detail with modern convenience. Generous ceiling heights, sash windows, ornate cornicing and a carved fireplace give the principal reception room strong character, while neutral décor and integrated Neff appliances keep the living spaces practical and move-in ready.
The accommodation spans just over 1,200 sq ft and is arranged for flexible urban living: a 28 ft reception room comfortably accommodates seating, dining and home-working zones, and a well-equipped kitchen/breakfast room includes space for a table. The bedroom wing provides a substantial principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, a second double with generous fitted storage, and additional floored loft storage above the kitchen.

The location in Edinburgh’s West End places galleries, cafes and transport links within easy walking distance, with Haymarket station and tram services close by.
Buyers should note the property sits within Council Tax Band F, described as expensive, and the wider area is classified here as deprived for statistical purposes; these points may affect running costs and local funding priorities. Overall, this is a rare, large ground-floor apartment in a prestigious crescent that will suit those seeking an elegant period home with generous internal space and practical city access.
