Summary - 1/2, ALBION GARDENS, EDINBURGH EH7 5QF
2 bed 2 bath Ground Flat
Ready-to-rent modern home with balcony and parking.
Two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes
A recently renovated two-bedroom ground-floor flat in a popular modern development, offered with immediate appeal for buy-to-let investors or professionals seeking low-maintenance city living. The apartment is presented in neutral decor with a well-zoned open-plan kitchen/living/dining room that opens onto a private southwest-facing balcony, extending the living space outdoors.
Accommodation includes two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, a modern en-suite to the principal bedroom and a separate tiled three-piece family shower room. Practical extras include generous built-in hall storage, gas central heating, double glazing, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The development provides well-kept communal grounds and off-street residents’ parking.
Financially, the flat has previously achieved a strong 6.4% yield and is freehold, making it attractive to investors. Buyers should note an average annual service charge of around £1,200 (c. £100 pcm) covering communal upkeep and buildings insurance. Some room images have been virtually staged.
Material drawbacks to consider: the property is ground-floor which can mean less privacy and more street noise; the wider area is recorded as very deprived, a factor that can influence demand and resale values. There is no private garden, and the flat sits within a communal development where management and factor costs apply.
