Set on the second floor of a traditional Gorgie tenement, this freehold one-bedroom flat (with a versatile box room) offers a compact, efficient layout ideal for a single occupant or couple. The open-plan kitchen and living room features a focal fireplace and neutral décor, creating a welcoming main living space. A three-piece shower room and entrance hall with storage complete the internal accommodation.
Practical urban advantages include a communal garden and drying area, covered bike/motorbike storage, permit on-street parking, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — strong for commuters, students, and first-time buyers seeking convenience. The property is a short commute from central Edinburgh with supermarkets, transport links and local amenities within easy walking distance.
Considerations: the building is a period sandstone tenement with external stonework and roofline that may need ongoing maintenance; the block shows some renovation potential. Internally the rooms are small-to-average in size and there is no private garden or notable external views, which may limit appeal for buyers seeking outdoor space. The surrounding area is classified as very deprived, which can affect resale and rental perceptions despite local demand.
Overall, this compact city-centre flat represents a practical, well-located purchase for a buyer seeking an affordable entry into Edinburgh’s property market or an investment opportunity aimed at students or young professionals. Fixtures and integrated appliances are included in the sale, allowing immediate occupation or letting with minimal short-term work.
