Area classed as high deprivation — consider resale/rental risks
A compact, well-presented one-bedroom ground-floor flat with a corner aspect and good natural light. The layout includes an entrance hall, open-plan living/dining with a modern fitted kitchen, double bedroom and a contemporary bathroom. Newly renovated finishes, double glazing and electric heating keep the flat low-maintenance and move-in ready.
Ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor, the property is freehold and set within established landscaped communal grounds in Chesser, west of Edinburgh city centre. Local amenities are plentiful — supermarkets, shops, leisure facilities and frequent bus routes are all within easy reach, and Slateford station is nearby for rail links.
Practical points to note: the apartment is small (approximately 334 sq ft) and has no private garden, only communal green space and a shared drying area. On-street unrestricted parking is available, but the ground-floor position may suit those prioritising easy access rather than private outdoor space or elevated views. The surrounding area is classified as higher deprivation, which may affect long-term rental yield or resale expectations.
Overall this is a straightforward, low-upkeep starter home or rental unit that suits buyers seeking affordability, convenience and immediate occupancy. The flat’s modern fittings and corner aspect offer appeal, but the compact size and neighbourhood context are important factors to weigh when viewing.
