A compact ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Gorgie, ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking city-centre access. The flat sits in a traditional sandstone tenement and benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and a fitted kitchen with integrated appliances. Shared rear garden provides outdoor space, while excellent transport links and local supermarkets make daily life convenient.
Accommodation is modest at around 396 sq ft and works best for a single occupant or couple. The living room is bright from a large window; the double bedroom accommodates freestanding furniture and the bathroom is a spacious shower room. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and council tax is low.
Buyers should note the flat’s size and ground-floor rear aspect, which limits privacy and may reduce natural light compared with upper levels. The neighbourhood is classified as very deprived and cosmopolitan student-focused, with associated street activity and noise at times. Internal refurbishment or modernisation may be desirable to maximise comfort and rental value; there is no private garden.
This property offers straightforward city living with clear commuting advantages and low running costs. It suits someone prioritising location and potential over generous internal space, and who is comfortable with shared external areas and a period building that may need cosmetic updating.
