Summary - 3/11, ALAN BRECK GARDENS, EDINBURGH EH4 7JF
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Ready-to-live EH4 flat with balcony and investment potential.
Freehold two‑bed flat with private balcony and small exclusive garden access
Set over the third floor of a mid‑20th‑century block, this two‑bed flat offers a bright, neutrally decorated living space ready to move into. The sitting room opens onto a private balcony and the fitted galley kitchen includes generous integrated storage — practical features for a first-time buyer or couple.
The layout is compact but well planned: two usable bedrooms, a three‑piece bathroom and built‑in cupboards in the hall. Gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband make the home comfortable and connected. There is also exclusive access to a small private garden at the front of the building and unrestricted on‑street parking immediately outside.
Important considerations: the block is post‑war and external elements show age — the roof appears to need repair. The property is on the third floor reached via a communal stairwell (no lift), and there is no factor company managing communal upkeep, which can mean owners must coordinate and fund repairs themselves. The surrounding area is described as very deprived, which may affect long‑term resale or rental demand despite the property's good presentation.
For a buyer seeking an affordable entry into EH4, this freehold flat combines ready‑to‑live‑in condition with clear potential for rental income. Buyers should budget for potential communal maintenance and factor the staircase access into daily convenience considerations.
