Summary - 54B, HIGH STREET, TRANENT EH33 1HH
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Affordable, well-located starter flat close to shops and transport links.
Private rear entrance via external staircase
This compact one-bedroom first-floor flat sits directly on Tranent High Street, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking an affordable, central base within commuting distance of Edinburgh. The layout includes a bright sitting room with twin windows, a generous kitchen/dining area and a double bedroom, all presented in a tidy, recently refreshed condition. Practical features include gas central heating from a condensing combi boiler replaced in 2021 and UPVC double glazing, keeping running costs down and comfort good.
The flat has a private rear entrance via an external staircase and benefits from easy on-street parking and fast broadband. Local amenities are exceptionally close — shops, eateries, buses and services are all on the doorstep, with Fort Kinnaird and main road links a short drive away, making daily life and commuting straightforward.
Considerations: the property is modest in size (about 506 sq ft) and sits on a busy high street with no private garden. The wider area is classed as very deprived, which may affect resale or rental demand. The building exterior shows Victorian stonework and signs of external repair needs (roof/guttering/drainpipes) which could require attention in future. EPC recorded as D.
Overall this is a practical, well-located starter home or buy-to-let opportunity for someone who values central convenience and low initial outlay, and who is comfortable with a compact urban flat and occasional external maintenance responsibilities.
