The property

A lovely bright SECOND FLOOR FLAT which has lots of character and enjoys an enviable location opposite Arthurs Seat. Edinburgh's city centre is just 10 minutes and Holyrood Park …a mere 2 min' walk. Entrance at ground floor with entry-phone and well-kept stairway to Second Floor: Hall; Living room ; Dining/Kitchen, 2 Bedrooms; & Bathroom. Free on-street Parking; Entry phone; D. Glazing & Gas Central Heating. * Lovely, shared rear gardens. Royal Park Terrace is the road running alongside Holyrood Park. This section of the thoroughfare is particularly appealing as it is opposite Arthur's Seat and comprises similar traditional stone tenements where residents' are lucky enough to have a wide selection of amenities, literally "on the doorstep". The city centre is only 1.5 miles and this factor undoubtedly contributes to the area's desirability. There are excellent local shops & regular bus routes; in addition, there is a choice of supermarkets close-by and motorists can quickly access the by-pass via the A1 leading on to the main road network in and out of Edinburgh. Leisure is particularly well catered for in Meadowbank with the Leisure Centre of that name, The Royal Commonwealth Pool ( through Holyrood Park ); several golf courses and of course the many lovely walks on and around neighbouring Arthurs Seat. Even Portobello and its promenade, beach & shopping is only 1.5 miles east. Part of a traditional row of stone built tenements which in the section, have only two flats per landing and as such have aspects both to the front (enjoying the beautiful views to Arthur's Seat) and to the rear. The property has a really nice "vibe" to it with blend of period finishes such as the stripped down to the natural timber floors in both public rooms and retention of the fireplace in the Living room. In addition, double glazing and gas fired central heating have been installed. Shared gardens to the rear. In recent times properties in Royal Park Terrace have shown excellent growth in values and with the regeneration of the Meadowbank Stadium, the expectation is for that to continue. Shrewd investors will note this and the lovely location so close to many of Edinburgh's main tourist attractions.
