Freehold tenure; council tax rated as cheap
Light-filled second-floor flat in a traditional stone tenement, arranged around a welcoming hall. The living/dining room has twin windows and high ceilings that maximise natural light, and the principal bedroom includes built-in storage. Gas central heating and double glazing are in place for year-round comfort, and residents share a pleasant communal drying green.
At about 672 sq ft the layout is efficiently planned for city living but is modest compared with modern family homes. The kitchen and bathroom are functional but show signs of age; straightforward modernisation would enhance everyday comfort and add value. There is no private garden; the flat faces onto maintained communal lawn.
Piershill Square West offers excellent local amenities and transport links to the city centre, Meadowbank retail and leisure facilities, and nearby Portobello beach. The area is well served by buses and is convenient for universities and employers across east Edinburgh.
Buyers should note the wider area is classified as very deprived and constrained neighbourhoods, which may affect future resale dynamics. Overall this property suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a well-located, characterful flat with clear scope for cosmetic improvement and uplift.
