Falling within a conservation area characterised by its narrow, cobbled streets and continental-style waterfront, the area exudes a charming, small-town ambience that is worlds away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The Shore is renowned for its buzzing arts and social scene, which is fuelled by a fabulous selection of galleries and boutiques, trendy bars and award-winning eateries, including no fewer than three Michelin-starred restaurants. For foodies, Leith Market (every Saturday) is the perfect place to pick up fresh local produce, before tucking into some delicious street food. The Shore enjoys fantastic public transport links into the city centre and is just a five minute walk from the nearest tram stop. It also provides swift and easy access to Edinburgh City Bypass, Edinburgh International Airport, and the M8/M9 motorway networks. Extras All fitted flooring, blinds, light fittings (excluding light in the sitting room), integrated kitchen appliances and washing machine are included in the sale price.
