A well-presented one-bedroom ground-floor flat set within a traditional Victorian tenement just off Leith Walk. The open-plan living room and kitchen with breakfast bar create a bright, social space, while a double bedroom and shower room complete the accommodation. The building benefits from a security entry phone system and a south-facing communal garden that catches the sun in warmer months.
This freehold flat (459 sqft) is compact and efficiently laid out, aimed at first-time buyers, students looking for central living, or buy-to-let investors. On-street residents’ permit parking and excellent mobile and fast broadband make the location practical for commuters and renters. Council Tax Band B and an EPC rating of C help keep running costs reasonable.
Buyers should note the flat is in a cosmopolitan, predominantly student area classified as very deprived; this brings vibrancy but may mean local noise and higher turnover of neighbours. Private outdoor space is communal only, and parking is on-street by permit. The property is presented ready to occupy but, given its size, offers limited scope for major internal extension.
Overall, this apartment offers central convenience, strong rental appeal, and low ongoing costs for someone seeking an affordable city base or investment with straightforward maintenance and a sunny communal garden.
