Occupying the third floor of a handsome Victorian tenement on McDonald Road, this bright two-bedroom flat offers generous rooms and classic period detail. High ceilings, a bay-windowed sitting room with fireplace and far-reaching views give the main living spaces a confident, airy feel. The recessed kitchen is well fitted with solid wood worktops and integrated appliances. The apartment extends to about 80 sqm and feels larger than many city flats.
Two double bedrooms both enjoy landmark views across the city, and the bathroom unusually provides both a bath and a separate walk-in shower. Practical features include gas central heating, double glazing and a secure entry system. A well-kept communal garden sits to the rear, and on-street permit parking is available for residents.
Location is a key asset: under a mile to Princes Street, steps from the tram stop and St James Quarter, and close to parks, cafes and local shops. This flat suits buyers wanting spacious, characterful city living — either an owner-occupier seeking roomy reception space and home-working options, or an investor targeting strong central demand.
Buyers should note the flat is on the third floor with no lift, which may limit accessibility. There is no private garden and parking is on-street by permit only. The wider neighbourhood is mixed and described in official data as having higher deprivation levels; prospective purchasers should consider this when assessing long-term rental profiles or community services.
