Fixed-price sale aligned to home report valuation (no offers)

This bright one-bedroom flat occupies the second floor of a traditional Victorian tenement in the heart of Leith, a lively area with excellent local shops, bars and transport links. High ceilings and large sash-style windows give a sense of space and light across the open-plan living/kitchen area, and the building benefits from a secure entry and a shared rear garden.
Offered at a fixed price set to the home report valuation, the property is a straightforward purchase for a first-time buyer seeking a central, low-maintenance home or for an investor looking for a city-centre let. The flat is presented in good order and includes fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical positives for renters or new owners.
Buyers should note the compact footprint (approximately 373 sq ft) and that the flat is on the second floor with no lift, which may restrict accessibility. The surrounding neighbourhood is classed as very deprived and houses a cosmopolitan student and migrant commuter population; the area’s vibrancy brings convenience but can also mean busier streets and a transient rental market.
Overall this property suits someone prioritising location, period character and low council tax over generous space. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the high ceilings and natural light in person.
