The property

Rarely available C-listed main door flat in sought-after Haymarket, offering a spacious and flexible 1/2-bedroom city home with charming period features and a south-facing private garden. The flat can be used as a one bedrom flat with a dining kitchen or as a two bedroom flat with a sittingroom/kitchen. Enjoying a favourable end-of-terrace position, the property sits behind a sizeable south-facing private garden, which is screened by established hedges. The handsome front door swings open to reveal a traditional entrance vestibule with a glazed door into the inviting hall, which benefits from a walk-in cupboard. On the right, the living room is flooded with light from twin south-facing windows and at the focal point of the room is a striking feature fireplace, flanked by an open Edinburgh Press. Additional period details include rustic exposed floorboards, tall skirting and decorative cornicing. Across the hall, the south-facing dining kitchen incorporates a useful utility cupboard, which houses a washing machine, integrated fridge, dishwasher, a tumble dryer and the gas combi boiler. The sleek fitted kitchen offers ample storage and workspace, plus an integrated induction hob, extractor hood, electric double oven and dishwasher. This leaves scope for additional freestanding appliances and a generous dining area. Returning to the hall, the flat also accommodates a bright and airy double bedroom, and a contemporary three-piece shower room, which is immaculately tiled in neutral tones. The property benefits from gas central heating and original sash-and-case windows with secondary glazing. With an enviable south-facing aspect, the private front garden is chipped for easy maintenance and landscaped to include raised beds and traditional clothes line posts. Residents’ permit parking (Zone S4) is available adjacent and in the vicinity.
