Set on the fourth floor of a contemporary development in Granton, this well-presented two-bedroom flat offers bright, open-plan living with balcony access and secure allocated parking. The apartment benefits from floor-to-ceiling tilt-and-turn windows, integrated kitchen appliances, built-in wardrobes in both bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it move-in ready for professionals or first-time buyers.
Practical comforts include lift access, gated parking, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The development is factored with a below-average service charge (£120pcm) covering communal maintenance, and the property is offered freehold — unusual for flats and simplifying ownership. EPC rating C and Council Tax band D are recorded.
Notable limitations are clear: there is no private garden or significant outdoor space beyond a balcony, and the wider area registers as very deprived which may affect long-term resale or rental demand. The apartment occupies an urban plaza setting rather than a leafy street; buyers seeking green space or a quiet suburban location should note this.
Overall this apartment suits buyers wanting contemporary, low-maintenance city living with good transport links and secure parking. Investors or first-time buyers who value convenience, built-in storage, and modern finishes will find genuine appeal, while anyone prioritising private garden space or a high-affluence neighbourhood may prefer to look elsewhere.
