Summary - 2, RESTALRIG GARDENS, EDINBURGH EH7 6HZ
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Large bedroom, private garden and strong connectivity—ideal for first-time buyers.
- Two double bedrooms; principal bedroom particularly large and light
- Private fully fenced rear garden with direct kitchen access
- Approximately 850 sq ft — larger than many city flats
- Fast broadband and excellent mobile (full 4G) coverage
- Freehold tenure stated; ground/raised single-storey flat layout
- Very deprived local area; may affect long-term demand
- Roadside parking and small paved forecourt; urban residential views
- Likely need for cosmetic updating and potential minor repairs
This two-bedroom ground/raised flat in Restalrig offers a spacious principal bedroom, a bright sitting room and direct access to a private rear garden — rare for urban flats. At about 850 sq ft, the apartment feels larger than many city-centre alternatives and benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, useful for commuting or renting.
The property sits on a corner plot with roadside parking and a small paved forecourt. The interior is generally tidy but shows signs of age in places and would suit buyers wanting to add value through cosmetic updating. There is clear refurbishment potential for improving finishes and modernising services where required.
Practical positives include freehold tenure as stated, low flood risk and easy access to local amenities and frequent public transport. Important context: the wider area is classified as very deprived with a local population of hard-pressed flat dwellers, which may affect long-term capital growth and local services.
This home will appeal to first-time buyers seeking a larger starter property with a garden in Edinburgh, or investors looking for rental potential after modest refurbishment. Be aware of the neighbourhood profile and budget for updating works to maximise the property’s value.
