This three-bedroom Georgian mews sits on a cobbled, private lane in central Edinburgh, offering characterful period frontage combined with a modern, light-filled interior. The house is compact at around 800 sq ft but designed efficiently over multiple levels, with a spacious dual-aspect living room and a contemporary fitted kitchen with high-spec BOSCH appliances. Residents can apply for permit parking and access Queen Street Gardens via an annual fee.
The accommodation includes a ground-floor south-west-facing double bedroom with built-in wardrobes, two further bedrooms on the upper level, and a stylish bathroom with bath and overhead shower. Wooden floors, recessed lighting and neutral décor create a bright, low-maintenance living environment suited to professionals or a small family. Mobile signal is excellent and broadband speeds are fast, supporting home working.
Buyers should note the property’s limitations: total floor area is small (approx. 800 sq ft) and there is a single bathroom for three bedrooms. Council tax is described as expensive and the immediate area is classified as a deprived, cosmopolitan student neighbourhood, which may mean higher local footfall and activity. The property is freehold but benefits such as garden access require an annual residents’ fee.
Overall this mews property will appeal to first-time buyers or professionals seeking central location, period character and modern fittings in a compact, manageable home. It suits purchasers prioritising location, garden access and built-in parking options, while those seeking larger family accommodation or multiple bathrooms may find the layout restrictive.
