Generous period apartment in central New Town, ideal for professionals or couples.
Large 827 sq ft one-bedroom flat with unusually spacious lounge/dining area
This attractive top-floor one-bedroom flat sits within Edinburgh’s prestigious New Town Conservation Area, offering generous living space and pronounced period character. The large lounge/diner, high ceilings and original features such as sash windows, cornicing, shuttered bedroom windows and a marble-surround fireplace give the apartment an elegant, historic feel uncommon at this size in the city centre.
Practical features include gas central heating, a fitted kitchen with integrated hob and oven, two kitchen skylights for daylight, and included white goods (washing machine and fridge/freezer). The flat’s footprint (approx. 827 sq ft) provides unusually spacious reception space for a one-bedroom, making it appealing for a single professional or couple who value living space over extra bedrooms.
Material considerations are set out plainly: the building is C‑listed which can restrict alterations and may complicate permissions and maintenance works. The flat is on the third floor and accessed by stairs only — there is no lift — and there is no private outdoor space. Parking is on-street by resident permit only. The wider area is centrally located and well served, but local statistics note higher area deprivation, which may affect some buyer priorities.
This property suits a buyer who values period character, location and generous internal proportions and is comfortable with conservation constraints. It also offers straightforward rental appeal for investors seeking roomy, centrally placed one-bedroom stock, though listed-status responsibilities should be factored into ongoing maintenance and any planned changes.
