This ground-floor flat in Newington combines traditional Georgian character with contemporary interior finishes, ideal for first-time buyers or city professionals seeking a compact, well-located home. The accommodation is neutrally presented throughout, offering an easy move-in with a modern kitchen and three-piece bathroom. A private front garden and access to a communal lawn add rare outdoor space for this part of the city.
The layout is efficient at around 538 sq ft, with two well-proportioned bedrooms and good natural light from large street-facing windows. The property is sold as seen, with some fittings and two beds included; no warranties are provided for appliances or moveables. Broadband speeds are average, but mobile signal is excellent.
Practical considerations: the flat is small for a two-bedroom and sits on the ground floor, which may bring some street noise and limited privacy. The surrounding area is described as deprived in parts, though local amenities, frequent bus links, The Meadows and Arthur’s Seat are within easy walking distance. The sale is advertised £10,000 below valuation, offering potential immediate value for buyers prepared to accept the home as presented.
Overall this is a straightforward, characterful city flat that will suit buyers wanting a ready-to-live-in central base with scope for personalisation rather than a full renovation. Its freehold tenure is atypical for flats and may simplify ownership for some purchasers.
