Approached off a shared stairwell with secure entry phone system, the front door opens into a hallway boasting high ceilings and neutral decor. The living room offers an airy yet cosy space with a feature gas fire at the focal point. A versatile breakfast bar provides useful worktop space and separates the kitchen from the reception area.

At the other end of the hall, the bright and well-proportioned double bedroom features built-in wardrobes. Completing the accommodation is the three-piece shower room. The flat further benefits from double glazing; externally there is a communal garden to the rear and on-street parking is available. Leith lies approx 3 miles north-east of the city centre and offers an abundance of amenities, including banking and postal facilities, Tesco and Lidl supermarkets (along with Asda at nearby Newhaven), trendy bars and restaurants, independent shops and cafes. A vibrant arts community has emerged alongside the renowned Leith School of Art with Coburg House Art Studios, the Edinburgh Sculpture Workshop, Edinburgh Festival Fringe venues (such as The Biscuit Factory) and the newly-revived Old Leith Theatre, host to the Hidden Door multi-arts festival. Sports facilities include Leith Victoria Swim Centre and David Lloyd at Newhaven, whilst the Water of Leith walkway and Victoria, Keddie and Starbank Parks all provide outdoor recreation. Proposals to extend the city tram line to Ocean Terminal, providing a rapid transport link to Edinburgh Airport, are currently under consideration. The area boasts fantastic transport links with regular buses running to the city centre and many surrounding areas, including Edinburgh Airport and the Gyle Business Park. The flat is also handy for easy access to the A1 and the Edinburgh Bypass. Home Report: £130,000 EPC: F
