Characterful ground-floor one-bedroom in The Shore with parking and communal courtyard.
C‑listed warehouse conversion — listing restricts alterations
Set within a C‑listed former warehouse in Edinburgh’s Shore, this bright ground‑floor one‑bed flat offers characterful city living with modern convenience. At about 495 sq ft the apartment pairs high ceilings and sash‑style windows with a compact, well‑laid-out living room/kitchen and a double bedroom — ideal for a first home or a buy‑to‑let in a popular riverside neighbourhood.
The flat includes an allocated off‑street parking space and access to a sheltered communal cobbled courtyard with established planting, providing private outdoor space uncommon for central locations. Practical benefits include a secure entryphone system, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and a low council tax band.
Notable constraints are clear: the building’s C listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate some refurbishments or planning consents. The immediate area is classified as very deprived, which can affect resale dynamics and rental yields. There is an annual factoring/service charge (around £500–£550) for communal maintenance.
Overall this freehold ground‑floor apartment is best suited to buyers who value period character and a central Shore address, and who are comfortable working within the limitations of listed‑building ownership. It represents an accessible purchase at the asking price with practical extras included in the sale (white goods and fittings).
