1 bed Flat For Sale £390,000
Part of a traditional tenement in sought-after Marchmont, this main-door, ground-floor flat boasts a convenient setting in the capital, near The Meadows and with close proximity to the city centre. The one-bedroom (plus box room) property offers spacious accommodation and well-retained period features, and although it requires a slight modernising touch, it is well presented and a fantastic opportunity for a wide demographic.
The home’s private front door opens into a welcoming vestibule, giving way to a hall with built-in storage. On the right is the living room, which captures lots of daily sun thanks to a bay window. Here, a neutral palette adds to the airy ambience, whilst a range of period details finish the space, from a handsome feature fireplace by an open Edinburgh Press, to lavish cornice work and a picture rail which highlights the lofty ceiling. To the south-facing rear, the kitchen/dining room has a large nook for a table and chairs, and a well-appointed arrangement of cabinets and workspace. It has a neighbouring utility room and comes with an electric cooker, a traditional clothes pulley, and a built-in cupboard housing a fridge/freezer. The front-facing double bedroom, with a decorative fireplace, is bright and airy. It also offers ample floorspace for bedside furnishings. A box room, fitted with a cabin bed, provides a second sleeping area. The bathroom is to the home’s rear, enjoying nice styling and a three-piece suite with an overhead shower. Gas central heating ensures year-round comfort, alongside traditional sash windows with secondary glazing.
Outside, there is a private front garden and a communal rear garden that is well-kept and laid to lawn. Controlled parking is available with a residents’ permit (Zone S1).
Renowned as a vibrant and sought-after suburb, Marchmont offers a variety of lovely period properties, leafy areas and outstanding retailers. Situated opposite the Meadows, this area is within easy walking distance of Edinburgh’s historic Old Town, the New Town, Waverley Station, and the city’s best universities. A wide variety of cafés, restaurants, coffee houses, bistros, independent shops, galleries, boutiques, a luxury cinema, theatres, and various supermarkets can all be found on your doorstep and in neighbouring Morningside and Bruntsfield. The area offers tranquil parks and large green spaces for outdoor activities and picnics. Outstanding state schooling is on offer at primary and secondary level and the area is very well served by frequent public transport services, superb cycle paths and picturesque, leafy walkways.
