An exceptional penthouse occupying the top of a Georgian building on North Castle Street, sympathetically restored to combine Victorian character with contemporary luxury. The accommodation extends to approximately 3,420 sq ft across multiple levels and offers sweeping, panoramic views of Edinburgh Castle and Queen’s Gardens from a private garden terrace with BBQ area and hot tub.
The interior is newly renovated to a high standard, retaining original cornicing, plasterwork, working shutters and an original stone staircase, while adding a high-spec Miele kitchen and luxurious bathroom fittings. High ceilings and large principal rooms create an airy, elegant feel ideal for entertaining or comfortable family living.
Practical details: the property is freehold, arranged as five bedrooms and three bathrooms, and benefits from excellent mobile signal. Notable drawbacks are very slow broadband speeds and very expensive council tax. There is no garage, and the wider area classification records significant deprivation — buyers should consider local demand and service provision.
This penthouse suits buyers seeking a rare central-city residence with period charm, generous space and standout outdoor entertaining, and who are prepared for connectivity limits and the higher running costs that accompany prime historic properties.
