Summary - GF, 26, MAYFIELD GARDENS EH9 2BZ
4 bed 3 bath Flat
Large period four‑bed with scenic views, close to Meadows and universities.
Double‑upper villa with 1722 sq ft flexible living space
This stylish double‑upper villa occupies the top two floors of a handsome Victorian terrace in sought-after Mayfield Gardens. At approximately 1722 sq ft, the layout delivers generous, high‑ceilinged reception space, a sunny breakfasting kitchen and four double bedrooms — three with built-in storage — making it a flexible family home or a spacious city pied-à-terre.
Period character is a strong asset: bay windows, ornate cornices and tall windows flood the living/dining room with light and frame views towards Salisbury Crags. The principal suite benefits from a four‑piece en‑suite; there are two further bathrooms and a separate shower room, reducing morning bottlenecks for a busy household or multiple tenants.
Practical points to note: the property is freehold, has gas central heating and partial double glazing, and on-street controlled parking (Zone 7). Council tax is above average and parts of the wider area are classified as deprived — factors to consider for long‑term running costs and resale depending on buyer priorities.
The location is a clear draw: within easy reach of Newington’s amenities, the Meadows, Holyrood Park and major university campuses, this home suits families wanting space near green areas and students or professionals seeking large, well‑appointed rooms. The asking price sits £60,000 below the home report, indicating potential immediate value for buyers prepared to move quickly.
