Lothian Road, Edinburgh EH3

Situated in the heart of Edinburgh's financial quarters in the highly sought-after West End conservation area, this three-bedroom second-floor city centre flat boasts a lucrative position within easy strolling distance of the capital's amenities, transport links, universities, and tourist sights. The property forms part of a traditional b-listed Georgian tenement building, circa 1825, designed by William Burn, the renowned Scottish architect who pioneered the revival of the Scottish Baronial architectural style. This city flat would make an ideal investment opportunity for buy-to-let investors or as a home for city professionals and families alike.

With a secure communal entrance and a well-lit stairwell, the front door to this city flat opens into a welcoming y-shaped hall with a built-in storage cupboard. To the right is the living/dining room. Flooded with natural light from two south-facing sash windows (which provide delightful views over Edinburgh), this bright and spacious reception area also affords plenty of room for comfortable lounge furniture and a four-person dining table, ideally set in a large recess. The room is perfect for relaxing, convivial dining, and socialising, decorated with crisp white d cor that is paired with original timber flooring. A feature fireplace (with a broad wooden mantelpiece) frames the space, whilst smooth cornicing amplifies the impeccably high ceiling. Next door, the breakfasting kitchen enjoys a contemporary design with modern cabinets in cream set above and below timber-style worktops. Dark splashback tiles add contrast to the white d cor, creating further definition to the cooking area. A neat built-in breakfast bar for two is perfect for morning coffee, located below a traditional serving hatch to pass food from the kitchen into the living/dining room. A gas hob and an electric oven are integrated, with an undercounter washing machine, dishwasher, and freestanding fridge-freezer included in the sale.

Located throughout the home are three double bedrooms, which are fitted with plush carpeting for additional comfort. The master bedroom boasts a light and airy ambience enhanced by two timber-panelled sash windows and a generous floor plan, which includes an en-suite bathroom with a luxury corner bathtub and an overhead shower. The second bedroom enjoys a beneficial south-facing aspect and an Edinburgh Press for display items, whilst the third bedroom comes with a built-in wardrobe. All three rooms are spacious enough for a home work station/study, in addition to bedside furniture, a chest of drawers, and a wardrobe.

Traditional sash window add charm and style, with an efficient gas central heating system providing year round comfort.
