The property

This stylish two bedroom maindoor apartment occupies a desirable location in cosmopolitan Stockbridge, just north of the city centre and prestigious New Town. Set over the ground and basement level, this converted flat offers well-presented accommodation with unique features that set it apart from other properties in the area. The front of the property has been recently repainted and makes for an attractive façade. Inside, on the ground level, there is a modern kitchen with grey gloss units, mirrored splashback, integrated appliances and a breakfast bar that can seat up to four people for casual dining. The room has great character and features intricate cornicing and hardwood flooring which also runs throughout much of the property. Down the hall, there is a good sized double bedroom with built-in mirrored wardrobes and doors that open onto the Juliette balcony which overlooks the gardens. The living room, which is positioned downstairs, is spacious, and through a hidden door, links to a soundproofed games room with built in seating and table. Originally a cellar, this space is now perfect for those who want to party into the wee hours without disturbing the neighbours. Also on the lower level is a contemporary, fully tiled shower room and a double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and an en suite shower. Direct access to the shared gardens can be gained from the bedroom and there is a sheltered seating area to be enjoyed.
