Summary - 6/5, HIGH STREET, DALKEITH EH22 1HR
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Turnkey one-bedroom near shops, transport and local amenities.
Top-floor one-bedroom; bright with pleasant open outlooks
Newly renovated with modern kitchen and bathroom
Gas central heating and double glazing throughout
Useful utility room providing valuable extra storage
Compact 446 sqft layout; efficient but limited space
Attic conversion living room: sloped ceiling, potential damp
Tenure not specified — confirm before mortgage offer
Located in a very deprived area; affects resale perceptions
This top-floor one-bedroom apartment offers a ready-to-move-in home for a first-time buyer seeking central convenience and low-maintenance living. Recently renovated throughout, it combines period charm with contemporary finishes: a modern kitchen and bathroom, double glazing and gas central heating for year-round comfort.
The flat feels bright and airy thanks to open outlooks and excellent natural light. A useful utility room provides rare extra storage for an apartment, and the well-proportioned bedroom makes a comfortable private retreat. At approximately 446 sq ft the accommodation is compact but efficiently arranged for everyday living.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property sits in a very deprived local area, which can affect resale and amenity perceptions, and the tenure is not specified — this may influence mortgage options. The living room is an attic conversion with a sloped ceiling and there is a potential damp concern noted in imagery that would benefit from inspection.
Overall this flat is a practical, stylish entry-level home in the heart of Dalkeith. It suits someone prioritising central location, a turnkey finish and low upkeep, while accepting a smaller, top-floor layout and the need to confirm tenure and investigate the sloped-ceiling/damp issue.
