Located in a very deprived, busy cosmopolitan student neighbourhood
A compact ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Abbeyhill, just over a mile from Princes Street and close to Meadowbank facilities. The apartment sits in a traditional Victorian tenement with original features, high ceilings and large windows that give a deceptively bright, airy feel for its size. Triple glazing and gas central heating improve comfort and efficiency; the property has an Energy Rating C.
Internally the layout is efficient: a generous lounge with cornicing, a front-facing double bedroom, a modern fitted kitchen with appliances included, a practical box room currently used as utility space, and a contemporary shower room. There is shared access to a rear garden laid mainly to lawn.
This property is best suited to a first-time buyer seeking a city-centre foothold or an investor targeting the local rental market in a cosmopolitan, student-friendly area. The flat is freehold and offers straightforward living close to shops, transport links and green spaces such as Holyrood Park.
Important considerations: the overall floor area is small (approximately 345 sq ft), which limits storage and living space. The building is in a very deprived area classification and sits in a busy, mixed-use neighbourhood with a largely transient population—factors to weigh for long-term owner-occupiers. Early internal inspection is recommended to judge space and layout against your needs.
