This main-door lower villa offers three bedrooms, a private rear garden and off-street parking — a practical starter home within easy reach of Edinburgh city centre. The property combines period character (bay-front living room, timber floors) with practical upgrades including double glazing and gas central heating. A modern, compact kitchen serves day-to-day needs.
At about 801 sq ft, the layout is efficient but the overall footprint is described as small, so buyers should expect cozier circulation and storage than in larger family homes. The garden and driveway add valuable outdoor and parking space that many flats lack. Council tax is noted as affordable, and broadband and mobile signals are strong.
Location is convenient for students and early-career professionals: local schools, training colleges and frequent bus services link the area to the city. Shopping nearby and leisure facilities (cinema, leisure centre) are within a short drive. However, the surrounding area is classified as very deprived with a wider “hampered aspiration” profile and local “hard-pressed flat dwellers” classification, which may affect long-term resale values and local services.
Overall this property best suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking an accessible, affordable three-bedroom lower villa with outdoor space. It presents immediate liveability with scope for cosmetic updating and potential to add value, but buyers should factor in the neighbourhood’s socioeconomic challenges when assessing long-term prospects.
