Set within an elegant Edwardian building in desirable Marchmont, this spacious first-floor flat offers generous, well-proportioned rooms and attractive period details. The bright twin-windowed sitting room with high ceilings and a decorative fireplace flows via an archway to a separate dining room, while a fully fitted kitchen serves the living spaces. The principal bedroom has built-in storage and a modern en-suite; a second double bedroom and a family bathroom complete the accommodation. Lift access and well-kept landscaped communal grounds add convenience and pleasant outlooks.
Practical benefits include a private garage, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband—useful for commuters and home workers—and a sizable overall footprint of approximately 1,216 sq ft. The development is factored by Myreside Management; factoring runs at about £1,600 per year (approximately £400 per quarter) and includes building insurance. The property is freehold and offered £20,000 below the Home Report valuation.
Important considerations: the flat is sold as seen and prospective buyers should note that the Council Tax is in Band G and described as “quite expensive.” The local area classification indicates a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood and the wider area is popular with professional service residents; this brings vibrancy but may mean higher local activity and demand. EPC rating C.
This home suits buyers seeking substantial, characterful accommodation in a central Marchmont location—families, professionals and investors who value size, scope for comfortable living and strong transport and digital connectivity. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the room proportions, period features and the private garage.
