Set on the second floor of a modern, factored courtyard development, this two-bedroom freehold flat offers a bright, practical home ideal for a first-time buyer. The lounge’s French windows and side window flood the room with light and provide pleasant views across Gyle Park; both bedrooms also look toward Corstorphine Hill. The breakfasting kitchen and built-in storage throughout add everyday convenience for a couple or sharer.
Practical benefits include secure entry, stair and lift access, gas central heating, double glazing and well-maintained communal gardens. Unallocated residents’ parking within the courtyard adds convenience for owners and visitors. The property’s size (approximately 853 sq ft, five rooms) gives comfortable living space without excessive upkeep, and there is no flood risk.
Costs and local context to note: the development is factored with an annual service charge of about £960 (around £80/month) which covers communal maintenance and buildings insurance. Council Tax is band E and described as above average for the area. The wider postcode is classified as showing high professional qualifications but also marked as very deprived in area deprivation data; buyers should consider local socio-economic context alongside transport and amenities nearby.
This flat suits someone seeking a ready-to-live-in home with good light, sensible running costs and outdoor communal space. It also offers straightforward rental potential for investor buyers, but purchasers sensitive to council tax levels or seeking allocated parking should factor those points into their decision.
