Summary - 22/1, GILLESPIE CRESCENT, EDINBURGH EH10 4HU
3 bed 1 bath Apartment
Generous Victorian flat — modern finish, shared garden, ideal for families near good schools.
Large first-floor three-bedroom apartment, approx. 1,260 sq ft
This large three-bedroom first-floor apartment sits in a handsome Victorian tenement on a quiet, tree-lined crescent in Bruntsfield. Recently and comprehensively refurbished, it combines period features — high ceilings, bay windows, cornicing and a working fireplace — with contemporary finishes and a modern dining kitchen. The accommodation is generous at about 1,260 sq ft and feels more like a flat above a traditional townhouse than a typical city flat.
The layout works well for families or professionals: principal bedroom, two further bedrooms (one easily used as a home office), a sizable living room and a fitted dining kitchen, plus a utility and shower room. Residents have access to a shared rear garden for outdoor space and benefit from local amenities, cafés, shops and good public transport. The property lies in the catchment for Bruntsfield Primary and Boroughmuir High School, making it convenient for families with school-age children.
Be mindful of a few material points. There is a single shower room for three bedrooms, which can be limiting at busy times. Parking is on-street by resident permit only. The local classification notes a strong student and commuter presence and the wider area is described as very deprived — this can mean higher activity levels and a mixed local amenity profile. EPC rating C and Freehold tenure are positives; council tax band is listed as E and further verification is recommended.
Overall, this is a spacious, character-rich apartment with modern updates and garden access, best suited to buyers prioritising living space, schools and a central Bruntsfield location, and who accept the single bathroom and on-street parking arrangements.
