This light-filled first-floor flat occupies a traditional sandstone tenement on Kings Road with direct views toward Portobello Beach. South-facing living room and bedroom maximise daylight, and period features such as a fireplace give character to the deceptively comfortable living space. The flat is presented with neutral décor and ready for a new owner to personalise.
Practical benefits include gas central heating, double glazing, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and unrestricted on-street parking. The property has access to a shared garden and sits close to local shops, cafés, parks and regular bus links into the city — ideal for commuters and seaside lifestyle seekers.
Buyers should note the flat is compact with a modest internal footprint and accessed via a communal stair. It is sold as seen with no warranties for systems or appliances, so any replacement or repair costs should be factored in. There is no private garden and the wider area scores as relatively deprived — relevant for buyers considering long-term resale or rental assumptions.
This property will suit a first-time buyer, city commuter or investor seeking a coastal pied-à-terre with strong rental or holiday-let potential. The combination of beachfront location, period charm and practical modern comforts offers clear lifestyle upside, provided purchasers are comfortable with the building’s communal access and the need to verify services on inspection.
