This compact one-bedroom first-floor flat offers an affordable entry into Leith’s popular Shore area. Set in a Victorian tenement, it retains period character with high ceilings, large front windows and built-in storage while providing modern comforts such as gas central heating, double glazing and a contemporary shower compartment.
The living room is bright and generously proportioned for the size, and the double bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and overhead cupboards. The kitchen is fitted with an integrated oven and electric hob plus freestanding white goods; overhead storage in the hall adds practical space. Residents also benefit from communal gardens and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal.
Practical points to note: the property is freehold, around 517 sq ft and zoned for on-street parking only. The flat is in an area with a high level of local deprivation and a lively local scene — great for convenience and amenities, but potentially noisy at times. Overall, this is a sensible purchase for a first-time buyer seeking a well-located, characterful home with modest updating potential.
