2 bed ground floor flat for sale in Leith

Welcome to a two-bedroom ground-floor flat which forms part of a popular modern development in Leith. Brought to market in excellent decorative order, this spacious home offers new buyers a sought-after blank canvas, as well as sociable open-plan living with a quality kitchen and a private balcony. It further benefits from an en-suite bathroom and family shower room, and excellent storage to keep the interiors tidy. Furthermore, the property has access to residents’ parking. It is an attractive home in a convenient location that will appeal to a wide demographic of buyers. Accessed via a secure telephone-entry system, you are welcomed into the flat by a hall with generous built-in storage. The neutral palette and wood-inspired floor flow from here into the open-plan kitchen, living and dining room, which adds a bold accent wall for a splash of extra colour. The spacious proportions are brightly illuminated by dual-aspect glazing, including patio doors that slide open to a private balcony extending the living area outside. The balcony enjoys leafy views and a southwest-facing aspect as well – perfect for relaxing in the sun. Meanwhile, the kitchen complements the open-plan reception area being cleverly zoned to the rear of the room. It has a well-appointed range of cabinets and ample worksurface space, bordered by mosaic-style splashbacks. Integrated appliances ensure a streamlined finish (oven, gas hob, concealed extractor, fridge/freezer, and washing machine). Set side by side, the two bedrooms are both spacious doubles equipped with built-in wardrobes and plush carpeting. The dual-aspect principal bedroom (presented in crisp white) has the added luxury of a modern en-suite bathroom for unwinding after a long day. The second bedroom also has neutral décor and a timber-toned accent wall for added texture. A tiled family shower room, fitted with a three-piece suite, completes the flat. Gas central heating and double glazing ensure year-round comfort. Outside, the development provides well-kept communal garden grounds and generous residents’ parking. Extras: all fitted floor and window coverings, light fittings, and integrated kitchen appliances to be included in the sale. Factor: the development is factored by James Gibb for the approximate fee of £306-400 per quarter (depending on the work required). This cost covers the upkeep of communal areas, garden maintenance, and block buildings insurance. Please note: Some of the rooms have been virtually staged from actual photographs of the rooms.
