Bright, compact one-bedroom tenement flat on Portland Street, set on the second floor of a traditional Victorian block. The open-plan living area and double-glazed sash windows deliver good natural light and period character, while the modern kitchen and gas central heating provide contemporary convenience. A generous double bedroom includes an original fireplace, and the bathroom has a shower-over-bath; there is a large storage cupboard and secure entry.
The property is offered freehold and sits within a communal rear garden — a useful outdoor space for warmer months. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent (full 5G coverage), making the flat well suited to professionals, students or first-time buyers looking for a well-connected city base.
Be realistic about the footprint: the overall size is compact (approximately 452 sq ft) and the reception and bedroom are average to small. Parking is on-street rather than allocated. The wider neighbourhood is lively and cosmopolitan but classified as very deprived, which may affect long-term capital appreciation and local services.
A closing date has been set (Fri 14th Nov 2025 @ 12:00). This flat will appeal to buyers prioritising location, character and good transport links to the city centre, or investors seeking a rental in a bustling Leith location willing to accept the area’s socioeconomic profile.
