Summary - 85/1, LEITH WALK, EDINBURGH EH6 8LX
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Newly renovated, city-connected two-bedroom with original features and fast broadband.
Large 1,011 sq ft first-floor Victorian flat with high ceilings
A spacious, freshly renovated two-bedroom flat occupying a first-floor Victorian building on Leith Walk. At about 1,011 sq ft the layout includes a separate living room, dining room, kitchen and an additional box room — generous proportions rare for city flats. Original period features such as high ceilings, decorative cornicing and fireplaces have been retained alongside modern finishes.
The location offers excellent connectivity: the tram stop is around a two-minute walk, and rapid mobile and broadband coverage support remote working. Local shops, cafés, supermarkets and leisure facilities are all within easy walking distance, making everyday life convenient for commuters and professionals.
This property is freehold and newly decorated, so minimal immediate work is needed. Note there is only one bathroom, and the local area is classified as very deprived with a strong student and migrant-commuter presence; expect periods of street-level activity and varied neighbourhood character. These factors suit buyers seeking central space and connectivity but may not suit those wanting a quiet suburban feel.
Overall, the flat will appeal to first-time buyers or professionals who value size, period character and excellent transport links, and who are comfortable living in a lively, evolving urban neighbourhood.
