Bright, compact and move-in ready, this second-floor two-bedroom flat offers coastal outlooks and practical living for a first-time buyer. The bay-window lounge fills the apartment with natural light and frames open views towards Arthur’s Seat and the Firth of Forth. Two double bedrooms include built-in wardrobes, creating straightforward bedroom and storage arrangements.
The kitchen is functional with an electric oven and gas hob; the bathroom has a shower-over-bath. The home benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and a secure-entry system, helping keep running costs reasonable. Off-street residents’ parking is available to the rear of the building.
Practical considerations include the overall small size (approximately 476 sq ft) which limits large furniture layouts and storage. There is an annual factoring/service charge of about £1,200 (£100 pcm) covering building insurance and maintenance, plus grounds maintenance of roughly £245 per year.
Set in Prestonpans, about eight miles east of Edinburgh, the location offers good local amenities, nearby beaches and rail links into the city — useful for commuting or leisure. Be aware the postcode falls within a higher deprivation bracket locally; viewings are recommended to assess whether the location and size fit your needs.
