A bright one-bedroom tenement flat on Baltic Street, offered chain free and suited to a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The flat’s standout feature is a generous, high-ceilinged living room with a bay window that fills the space with natural light and creates room for seating and a small dining area. The separate kitchen is practical with fitted base and wall units arranged around freestanding appliances.
The property benefits from gas central heating, neutral décor and good mobile and broadband coverage. There is a communal drying area to the rear and the building is traditional stone tenement; the flat is freehold. At 355 sq ft the accommodation is compact and focused, so it will suit someone seeking central Leith convenience rather than extensive living space.
Buyers should note the flat has partial double glazing and some basic bathroom tiling, so cosmetic updates or further energy improvements could be considered. The immediate area is described as very deprived and cosmopolitan student neighbourhoods, which may affect longer-term resale values but also supports rental demand. No private garden is included.
Overall this is an affordable, characterful entry into Leith with clear potential: move in with minor improvements or hold as a straightforward rental in a well-connected central location.
