Large city flat with period charm and communal garden, ideal for first-time buyers.
Freehold one-bedroom flat, approximately 679 sq ft
Located on the third (upper) floor of a handsome Victorian sandstone tenement, this one-bedroom flat offers generous internal space (c.679 sq ft) and characterful period details including high ceilings, bay window and a feature fireplace. The layout is practical for everyday living with a large sitting room, separate kitchen/dining, double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and useful hallway storage.
Practical strengths include freehold tenure, gas central heating, partial double glazing, access to a communal rear garden and on-street permit parking (Zone N1). Broadband and mobile coverage are excellent and council tax sits at an affordable band. The property is well placed for city amenities, public transport and the New Town’s shops, theatres and restaurants — ideal for a first-time buyer seeking central living with period charm.
Buyers should note the flat is on the third floor and the building has no lift, which may affect accessibility. Some features are dated and there is scope for cosmetic updating to realise full market potential. There is no factor service charge, but on-street parking requires a council permit. The sale is offered at a fixed price of £287,500 with an indicated HR value of £300,000.
Overall this flat suits a buyer who values space and character in a central location and is prepared to carry out modest modernisation to personalise the home and maximise value.
