This expansive first-floor tenement flat offers over 1,400 sq ft of well-proportioned living space with striking Victorian character. High ceilings, ornate cornicing and large sash-and-case windows create a light, airy atmosphere across a bay-windowed living/dining room, separate sitting room and three double bedrooms. The fitted kitchen and modern bathroom make the home liveable from day one while a useful study/box room adds flexible space for a home office or nursery.
Positioned beside The Meadows and Bruntsfield Links, the flat sits within easy walking distance of the university, city centre and a wide range of independent shops, cafés and transport links. Residents also benefit from access to a shared rear garden and on-street permit parking. Freehold tenure is a notable advantage for an apartment of this size and location.
Practical considerations are clear: there is a single bathroom for three double bedrooms and council tax is above average, which will affect running costs. The wider area is classified as having a strong student and commuter presence and pockets of deprivation, so buyers should weigh rental potential against local variability. Overall, this property suits buyers seeking generous, characterful accommodation in a desirable central location, with scope to personalise and enhance further.
