A bright two-bedroom first-floor tenement flat that pairs classic Edinburgh period features with a compact, low-maintenance layout. High ceilings, sash windows and ornate cornicing give the living room strong character and good natural light, making the most of the home’s modest footprint.
The flat is practical for a first purchase or buy-to-let: entrance hall with secure entry and storage cupboards, a fully fitted kitchen, two well-proportioned bedrooms (one with built-in storage) and a bathroom with shower-over-bath. Permit on-street parking and access to a well-kept shared garden add everyday convenience in central Leith.
Buyers should note the property’s small overall size (518 sq ft) and Energy Rating D; modest upgrading could improve efficiency and long-term running costs. The surrounding area is very deprived statistically, although it benefits from excellent local amenities, transport links and a lively neighbourhood atmosphere popular with commuters and students.
Offered freehold with no factor, this flat suits first-time buyers seeking a characterful, well-located starter home or investors wanting straightforward rental potential in a sought-after part of Leith.
