Spacious period duplex with Pentland views and south-facing garden—ideal for family living.
Five well-proportioned bedrooms across two levels
Set across the first and second floors of a handsome Victorian terrace, this double-upper flat offers generous, light-filled living tailored to family life. High ceilings, large bay windows and original period details — cornicing, working shutters, fireplace and an Edinburgh press — give the rooms character while large windows and a skylight flood the home with daylight. The front-facing rooms enjoy wide views towards The Pentlands and a south-facing front garden adds outdoor space for children or container planting.
Accommodation is flexible: a formal drawing room and a second reception room plus a spacious kitchen/breakfast room create scope for family living and entertaining. Five well-proportioned bedrooms across the two levels suit a growing family or those needing home-office space. There is scope to reconfigure the first floor into an open-plan entertaining area should buyers want a more contemporary layout.
Practical features include freehold tenure, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The property sits in a conservation area within easy walking distance of Bruntsfield and Morningside amenities, good schools and pleasant green spaces like the Braid and Blackford Hills. There is no flood risk recorded.
Be realistic about work and running costs: the flat will benefit from some updating to maximise its potential, and council tax is described as quite expensive. The property is in an area flagged as more deprived at a local level, which may affect resale and rental prospects for some buyers. Shared entrance access and multi-storey layout should be considered by anyone sensitive to stairs or wanting direct garden access.
