Set on the first floor of an attractive sandstone terrace in Bruntsfield, this freehold three‑bedroom flat blends handsome period features with clear scope for a contemporary refit. High ceilings, bay windows, ornate cornicing and a focal fireplace give immediate character, while a west‑facing principal bedroom and a comfortably sized reception room provide strong day‑to‑day living space.
Practical highlights include double glazing, a modern central heating boiler and updated plumbing; the layout offers two public rooms, three double bedrooms and a generous dining kitchen with pantry and clothes pulley. At about 1,155 sq ft the apartment feels spacious for its setting and benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband—useful for professionals and families working from home.
The flat does require renovation and aesthetic updating in places, so buyers should budget for modernisation. There is a single family bathroom only, and parking is by on‑street permit rather than private off‑street spaces. Council Tax sits above average and the wider area has pockets of deprivation, though the location remains highly sought after for its proximity to the Union Canal, The Meadows and strong local amenities.
This property will suit buyers seeking a characterful city home they can personalise—families or professionals who value space, period detail and easy access to green space and transport links. For those prioritising a turnkey finish, the renovation requirement is material; for buyers looking to add value, the flat offers clear potential to create a very individual residence.
