Summary - 2/16, WESTERN HARBOUR BREAKWATER, EDINBURGH EH6 6PA
Panoramic uninterrupted views over the Firth of Forth and Forth Bridges
Set on the fourth floor of a contemporary waterfront development, this newly renovated two-bedroom apartment delivers bright, move-in-ready living with outstanding uninterrupted views over the Firth of Forth. The generous open-plan living area flows to a balcony with panoramic estuary vistas and a second balcony overlooks landscaped communal gardens, giving flexible indoor–outdoor options for everyday life and entertaining.
Finished to a high standard, the kitchen features grey gloss cabinetry, granite worktops and integrated appliances; the principal bedroom includes built-in storage and a stylish en-suite. A recently upgraded principal bathroom offers both a freestanding bath and a walk-in shower. Practical benefits include lift access, residents’ underground parking, communal gardens and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal.
Buyers should note the material running costs and neighbourhood context. The development is factored (service charge c. £2,292 pa / c. £191 pcm) and the building requires a deposit of £300 for management purposes. Council Tax is Band F and described as expensive. The wider area is classified as very deprived and has a cosmopolitan, student-centred character — good for rental demand but not suitable if you require a quieter, affluent suburb.
This apartment will suit buyers seeking a contemporary waterfront home with strong visual appeal and practical convenience — particularly professionals, city commuters or investors attracted by location and rental prospects. Its combination of high-spec finishes, dual balconies and generous floor area offers a turnkey option in an iconic riverside setting, provided you accept the ongoing service charges and local area profile.
