A compact, stylishly presented two-bedroom first-floor apartment set within a Victorian tenement in central Musselburgh. The living room benefits from high ceilings, large windows and tasteful accent touches that maximise natural light and character. The larger rear bedroom offers good built-in storage while the second room doubles as a practical home office.
The location is a key strength: a short walk to the sandy beach, local shops and regular bus services, with quick road links to the A1 and Edinburgh. Residents also have access to a maintained communal garden and on-street parking directly outside, making day-to-day life convenient for commuters and first-time buyers.
Practical points are straightforward and honest. The flat is modest in size and designed for low-maintenance living — a single shower room and compact kitchen reflect that. Broadband speeds are average and there is no private garden. Sale includes selected appliances, blinds, curtains and a shed. Council tax costs are low and the property is offered freehold.
