Set on Montgomery Street, this well-proportioned one-bedroom flat pairs Victorian character with practical modern upgrades. Large bay windows and high ceilings flood the living room with light and frame direct views towards Calton Hill, creating an attractive and memorable living space. The flat extends to about 590 sq ft and benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and a recently rated EPC C.
The kitchen is contemporary and usefully laid out for everyday cooking and entertaining. The bedroom is a comfortable double and the bathroom includes a bath with shower. Residents enjoy access to a well-kept communal rear garden—a valuable outdoor asset in this central location.
Positioned in a lively, cosmopolitan neighbourhood popular with students and commuters, the property offers strong rental and resale appeal. Council Tax Band B keeps running costs low. Buyers should note the wider area scores as deprived and the street’s student-leaning character can mean higher footfall and occasional noise compared with quieter residential districts.
This freehold flat is well suited to first-time buyers seeking central living with period charm, or investors targeting the nearby rental market. The accommodation is ready to occupy with scope to personalise finishes while retaining the appealing original features.
