Set on the ground floor in Canonmills, this one-bedroom flat offers immediate access to Edinburgh’s city centre, cafes and public transport links. The apartment is offered freehold, includes built-in storage, double glazing and two resident permit parking spaces arranged through the factor — useful in a central location where parking is restricted.
The layout is straightforward: entrance hall with storage, a sitting room with feature fireplace, fitted kitchen, a double bedroom with mirrored wardrobe and a three-piece bathroom with electric shower. Electric panel and storage heating are fitted throughout; the EPC is C. A modest service charge of approximately £960 per year is noted and council tax is Band D (approx. £2,164 for 2025/26 inclusive of water and sewage).
This flat will suit a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor. The listing estimates achievable rent of about £1,100pcm (around 7% gross yield at the asking price), so it can perform as a long-term income property. Buyers should note average broadband speeds, electric heating rather than gas, and that the area is classified as relatively deprived — factors to weigh against the strong central location and rental demand.
All window furnishings, floorcoverings, light fittings and both integrated and freestanding appliances are included in the sale. No warranties or guarantees are provided; purchasers will need to satisfy themselves on condition and will be asked for proof of identity and source of funds for any offer.
