Summary - North Castle Street, Edinburgh, EH2 EH2 3LJ
3 bed 2 bath Flat
Generous period rooms and modern fittings in Edinburgh’s historic New Town.
B‑listed Georgian duplex occupying third and fourth floors
Set across the third and fourth floors of a B‑listed Georgian tenement in Edinburgh’s New Town, this double‑upper duplex offers generous, classically proportioned rooms and high ceilings. The open-plan kitchen/living room benefits from dual east‑facing sash windows and a central island, creating a bright, social heart for everyday life and entertaining. Period details such as cornicing, working shutters and an original fireplace sit alongside a modern fitted kitchen and high-spec bathrooms.
The principal bedroom on the lower level features a large dressing room and an en-suite with both bath and separate shower. Two further double bedrooms occupy the upper floor, each with built-in storage, served by a stylish family bathroom. A utility room and guest WC add practical convenience, while residents may apply for access to Queen Street Gardens (annual fee applies).
Important practical points: the building’s B‑listed status preserves historic character but will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance or extension plans. There is no private parking (on‑street permit only) and council tax is noted as expensive. The property is freehold and substantial at c.1,759 sq ft, offering scope for reconfiguration subject to listed‑building consents.
This home will suit buyers seeking a spacious, characterful city residence in a prime World Heritage location — families or professionals who value generous period proportions, proximity to central amenities and excellent transport links. It represents a rare New Town duplex with modern comforts, but buyers should factor in listed‑status constraints and higher local taxes.
