Freehold second-floor flat in Edinburgh Old Town
This well-located second-floor flat in Edinburgh’s Old Town offers straightforward city-centre living and clear rental potential. Set within a traditional Georgian stone building, it combines generous reception space, two double bedrooms and a fitted kitchen — all neutrally presented and ready for immediate occupation or letting.
The property is freehold and benefits from strong local demand: University of Edinburgh, major museums, Waverley station and numerous cafés, bars and shops are all within easy walking distance. Included fixtures and fittings reduce initial spend, while permit parking and reliable mobile signal add practical appeal for tenants or occupiers.
Buyers should note material limitations common to historic city buildings. Access is via communal stairs, there’s no private outdoor space, and thermal performance/communal maintenance may need investigation. The area is classified as a multicultural, student-focused neighbourhood and listed as very deprived, which can mean higher tenant turnover and local management considerations.
For investors, the combination of central location, two double bedrooms and a generous main reception makes this an attractive let, particularly to students or young professionals. For owner-occupiers seeking a compact city base, the flat provides character features and a ready-to-move-in finish, but a survey is recommended to confirm condition, services and scope for improvement.
