Summary - FLAT 2, 21, SALTIRE STREET, EDINBURGH EH5 1RG
1 bed 1 bath Ground Flat
Move-in ready one-bedroom with terrace near waterfront and transport links.
Sunny private decked terrace, direct access from living room
Bright, ground-floor one-bedroom flat with a sunny private terrace, offered in walk-in condition and ready to occupy. The open-plan living/dining/kitchen is light-filled, with a picture window and glazed door out to the decked terrace. The bedroom has a built-in wardrobe and the bathroom is in good order. Double glazing and district gas heating keep running costs moderate. The property is freehold and presented as an average-sized 456 sq ft flat ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor.
Practical running costs are clear: an annual service charge of approximately £970.32 (circa £80.86 monthly) covers common-area maintenance and building insurance. The building holds an EWS1 A2 certificate for cladding (no remedial works required). On-street parking is readily available and local transport links give straightforward access to the city centre, the Forth Road Bridge and surrounding suburbs.
Location is a genuine selling point for those wanting waterfront access and local amenities—Granton Beach, shops, supermarkets and cycle paths are all within easy reach, plus leisure facilities and parks nearby. Broadband and mobile signal are strong. Note the wider area is classified as very deprived and the immediate neighbourhood is identified as a cosmopolitan student/migrant commuter area; buyers should factor local socio-economic context into long-term plans.
Summary: a compact, well-presented ground-floor flat with a private terrace, low maintenance costs and solid compliance certificates. Suited to buyers seeking a move-in-ready starter home or a rental investment with immediate lettable appeal, but consider the local area classification and limited parking when evaluating future resale or rental expectations.
