A compact ground-floor studio in East Craigs, offered as a freehold flat within a tidy three-storey development. The main living/bedroom benefits from three windows that provide good natural light and views across maintained communal lawns. The flat includes a separate fitted kitchen, internal shower room with electric shower and underfloor heating, and a useful entrance cupboard.
Practical features suit a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor: double glazing, electric heating, secure entry and residents' off-street parking. Communal grounds are well kept and local amenities and public transport links are strong for the area, making the flat easy to rent or live in with minimal immediate work.
Limitations are straightforward: the overall footprint is small (approx. 314 sq ft) so storage and living space are limited; the property will suit a single occupant or couple only. The flat shows some wear — carpet staining and general cleaning/upkeep are needed — and heating is electric, which can be more expensive than gas. The surrounding area is recorded as having high deprivation; prospective buyers should weigh local socio-economic factors when considering long-term value or rental demand.
In short, this is an affordable, low-council-tax studio with sensible upkeep and rental potential for the right buyer. It represents a pragmatic entry into Edinburgh property, provided you accept compact living and some light cosmetic work.
