Set on the first floor of a handsome C‑listed Victorian building in prime Merchiston, this two-bedroom flat pairs period charm with modern convenience. High ceilings, an original bay with sash windows and decorative cornice give the reception room generous light and character. The modern kitchen is fitted with integrated appliances and the shower room is recently updated.
At about 797 sq ft the layout feels spacious for a city flat: two double bedrooms, a large bay-front reception and a separate kitchen. Gas central heating and fast broadband make the home practical for everyday living. The location is a key strength — boutique shops, cafes, good transport links and green spaces such as The Meadows are within easy reach.
Important practical notes: the property is C‑listed, which can complicate alterations and increase maintenance costs for historic fabric (stonework, windows, roof). There is no private garden and parking is on‑street by permit only. The wider area data flags local deprivation despite nearby professional and student populations, so buyers should check local services and insurance considerations.
Overall this is a characterful, well-presented period flat suited to buyers who value location, natural light and original features, and who are comfortable managing the responsibilities that come with listed, historic properties.
