Impressive open-plan living with large arched windows
Set within the converted 1860 Forth House, this first-floor apartment combines period character with contemporary finishes across an open-plan layout. Large arched windows fill the living space with daylight, while a fitted Kutchenhaus kitchen and smart-controlled electric heating add modern convenience. The gated development offers secure residents' parking and immediate access to the nearby railway station, putting Edinburgh within easy commuting distance.
The home provides three double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes and a well-appointed shower room — comfortable for family life or professional sharers. Its town-centre location places the waterfront, shops, theatre and gallery a short walk away, with plentiful local amenities and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations: the property uses electric heating (no gas), council tax is above average, and the wider local area is classified as very deprived, which may affect long-term resale or rental demand. As a converted building dating from 1860, ongoing communal maintenance and insurance costs are possible and worth checking before purchase.
Overall this flat will suit buyers seeking a stylish, well-located home with strong transport links and period charm — particularly families and professionals wanting space and proximity to the waterfront and town centre.
