Summary - 4/1, KIRKWOOD PLACE, EDINBURGH EH7 5TG
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Affordable one-bed ground-floor flat with south-facing communal garden and low running costs.
Freehold one-bedroom ground-floor flat, approx. 503 sq ft
This ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Meadowbank offers an affordable entry into Edinburgh’s eastern suburbs. Set in a traditional sandstone tenement, the apartment benefits from a bright sitting/dining room, a double bedroom with built-in storage and a rear, south-facing communal garden — useful outdoor space without maintenance responsibility. The property is freehold and has a modest annual service charge (approx. £840) with buildings insurance included in monthly costs of about £70.
The layout is compact and well-proportioned at about 503 sq ft, suited to a single occupant or couple. Transport links and a wide range of local amenities are on the doorstep, making daily life convenient. The flat is presented in average condition internally and will likely suit someone looking to personalise with light modernisation rather than a full renovation.
Be candid about location and condition: the immediate area is classified as very deprived and part of a cosmopolitan, student-heavy neighbourhood, which may not suit all buyers. The property sits on the ground floor with on-street parking only; there is no private garden but communal outdoor space is south-facing and pleasant. EPC rating C and an affordable Council Tax band D are practical benefits for running costs.
Overall this flat will appeal to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking an entry-level city property with reasonable running costs and potential to add value through cosmetic updating. Viewings are advised to assess internal condition and to weigh the location against lifestyle needs.
