Summary - 3/1, SUFFOLK ROAD, EDINBURGH EH16 5NR
2 bed 1 bath Ground Flat
Spacious period apartment with private front and rear gardens.
Ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in converted Victorian house
A well-proportioned two-bedroom ground-floor flat set within a converted Victorian house, this property retains attractive period features including a bay-windowed living room and decorative cornicing. The layout offers separate living and dining spaces and measures about 812 sq ft, giving the feel of a larger city flat well suited to first-time buyers wanting generous rooms.
Outdoor space is a genuine asset: established, densely planted private gardens at both front and rear offer a sheltered, leafy setting and good screening from the street. The recessed entrance and mature shrubs create privacy uncommon at this price point. Practical benefits include freehold tenure, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband speeds.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property shows signs of needing updating — especially kitchen and bathroom — and the front garden is overgrown and will need maintenance or restoration. Council tax is described as expensive, and the local area indicators include deprivation despite pockets of highly qualified professionals nearby. These factors are worth weighing when calculating running costs and renovation budget.
Overall this ground-floor period flat suits a purchaser seeking spacious rooms, outdoor space and character who is prepared to invest modestly in modernisation to unlock full value. Its location near amenities, schools and transport links makes it practical as a long-term home or a first step on the property ladder.
