Summary - 2F1, 116, ROSE STREET EH2 3JF
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Characterful New Town flat — central location with investor appeal and upgrade potential.
Period features: high ceilings, cornicing, sash windows and Edinburgh Press
Set on Rose Street in Edinburgh’s New Town, this second-floor, two-bedroom flat combines period character with strong central-location appeal. High ceilings, sash-and-case windows, cornicing and an Edinburgh Press give the sitting room elegant proportions and abundant natural light. The accommodation includes a galley kitchen, family bathroom and integrated storage, all in a neutral condition ready for cosmetic improvement.
Well suited to investors and buyers wanting immediate city-centre living, the property is freehold and currently produces a projected rental yield of around 6.4% if renovated and furnished (estimated rent £1,500 pcm). Practical benefits include gas central heating, excellent broadband and full mobile coverage, with permit parking available on surrounding streets (zone 1A).
Buyers should note the urban setting: there is no garden or private outdoor space and the flat faces a busy pedestrianised shopping street. The property has one bathroom and sits in an area classified as very deprived, which may influence long-term tenant mix and resale considerations. There is no factor charge, but purchasers must satisfy themselves on all services and warranties.
For someone seeking central living or an investment requiring limited refurbishment, this flat offers genuine location advantages — immediate access to shops, eateries, transport hubs and the cultural amenities of the New Town and Waverley area.
