Move-in-ready two-bedroom flat with private veranda and excellent transport links.
Two generous double bedrooms with city skyline outlooks
Bright, well-presented two-bedroom flat in Craigleith offering generous room proportions and contemporary finishes throughout. The open lounge/diner and light-filled kitchen lead to a private veranda — a useful extra for morning coffee or small outdoor dining. The recently upgraded bathroom and modern laminate floors mean minimal immediate work inside the flat.
Practical benefits include freehold tenure, low Council Tax (Band A), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — all appealing to first-time buyers and professionals. Communal gardens surround the mid-century block and there is ample on-street parking; nearby transport links and local shops make daily life straightforward.
Notable considerations: the apartment block is a mid-20th-century, utilitarian build that would benefit from wider modernization works; there is no private garden or garage and parking is on-street only. The property sits in a generally deprived area, which may affect long-term capital growth and local services. Buyers should note insurance is arranged through Manor Housing and factor-style arrangements are limited.
Overall, this flat offers a comfortable, move-in-ready base with good commuter access and outdoor space via the veranda. It suits first-time buyers or those looking to downsize who want a low-maintenance home with scope to personalise, while being realistic about block-level updates and the surrounding neighbourhood context.
