Summary - 3F1, 17, BLACKWOOD CRESCENT EH9 1RA
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Bright top-floor flat near The Meadows — ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
Victorian tenement flat with high ceilings and original period features
Light and airy third-floor tenement flat in Newington, offering authentic Victorian character and generous ceiling heights. The apartment has two double bedrooms, a separate kitchen, modern bathroom with shower, and a separate WC — a comfortable city base with leafy views toward mature trees and neighbouring stone buildings.
The building benefits from communal rear garden grounds and on-street permit parking. Gas central heating and double glazing are fitted throughout; broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent. Fixtures included in the sale (appliances and soft furnishings) are sold as seen with no warranty.
The property suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking strong rental demand near The Meadows and Edinburgh University. Internal modernisation — kitchen, bathroom finishes and insulation upgrades — is recommended to maximise value and comfort. Note the surrounding area is classified as mixed student and commuter neighbourhoods and the wider area records higher deprivation indices, which may influence resale profile.
Practical details: freehold tenure, council tax band C, average overall size (around 721 sq ft reported), and secure entry phone. There are no obvious flood risks; the stone tenement exterior shows typical weathering but appears in fair condition.
