Set on the first floor of a traditional stone tenement in sought-after Polwarth, this bright one-bedroom flat with a versatile box room offers classic Edinburgh character and canal-side living. Period features such as high ceilings, sash windows and a focal fireplace combine with double glazing and a communal rear garden to create an appealing, low-maintenance city home.
The accommodation includes a spacious living room, a double bedroom with generous natural light, a kitchen overlooking the Union Canal and a bathroom fitted with a modern walk-in shower. The windowless box room provides useful storage or a small home office, though it lacks natural light and is best suited to occasional use or dressing-room purposes.
Priced at £240,000 (Home Report £250,000) this freehold flat suits first-time buyers seeking character close to Bruntsfield and Harrison Park, or investors targeting steady rental demand near Haymarket and city-centre transport links. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working or short-term lets.
Buyers should note the property is in an area classed as deprived and lies on the first floor accessed via communal stairs (no lift). Included white goods are offered without warranties, and the flat would benefit from cosmetic updating in places to maximise its value and rental potential.
