Light and freshly presented, this second-floor one-bedroom flat in a traditional red sandstone tenement offers compact city living with a clear view of Arthur’s Seat. Tall ceilings and a large living window create an airy feel, while double glazing and gas central heating keep energy use efficient. The kitchen and bathroom are modern and the property can be sold with appliances and some furnishings by negotiation. A Home Report and a 360 virtual tour are available to support viewing decisions.
Practical features make this a straightforward starter home or buy-to-let: freehold tenure, low council tax (Band A), and modest annual factor fees of about £600 (c. £50/month) for communal upkeep. There is a secured entry system and a shared rear yard for bin storage and basic outdoor use. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent — useful for home workers and tenants.
Buyers should note the setting: the property is in an area classified as very deprived, which can affect local services, resale values and lettings compared with more affluent parts of the city. The flat is small (c. 452 sq ft) and communal access means no private garden. Overall, this is a well-presented, low-maintenance urban flat suited to a first-time buyer or investor seeking straightforward, city-centre proximity and rental potential.
