Set on the first floor of a traditional Victorian sandstone tenement, this one-bedroom freehold flat offers bright, comfortable living in the heart of Abbeyhill. The living room benefits from high ceilings and a large sash window that admits generous natural light. The layout includes an entrance hall with storage, a fitted kitchen, double bedroom and a shower room. A communal rear garden provides outdoor space and there is free on-street parking nearby.
The location is a key strength: Holyrood Park and Arthur’s Seat are close by, and Waverley Station, St James Quarter and the Omni Centre are within easy walking distance. Local amenities and childcare options are close at hand, making daily life convenient for a range of buyers. Broadband speeds are reported as fast and mobile signal excellent.
Practical points to note: heating is by electric storage heaters rather than gas central heating, which can affect running costs. The property sits in an area classified as very deprived, which may influence resale or rental demand and requires consideration. On-street parking is free but not allocated.
This flat will suit a first-time buyer or an investor seeking a period property in a central location with straightforward ownership (freehold). It offers immediate occupancy potential with further scope for cosmetic updating to reflect personal taste or to increase rental appeal.
