3 bed top floor flat for sale in Trinity

Property highlight: An A-list flat in a Grade B listed building

The building's Grade B listed, but this flat's definitely an A-lister with its stylish lounge, three bedrooms and contemporary kitchen and bathroom. Comfortably nestling under the eaves, with views across the city's rooftops, it is the perfect retreat from the hurly burly of everyday life. Even the shared spiral stair makes a statement, with its bold painted treads and risers and patterned walls. The hall gives access to all the rooms and its hardwood floor runs through to the lounge and the bedrooms. This gives the property a relaxing flow. The lounge is quietly situated to the rear and has an open fireplace. It easily takes a dining table and chairs as well as the usual soft furnishings. A large hatch to the kitchen doesn't just allow the food to go one way and the empty plates the other: whoever's cooking can still be part of the conversation. The kitchen itself has a range of attractive floor and wall units that provide good worktop and storage space, as well as an inbuilt induction hob, grill and oven and fridge freezer. Three double bedrooms provide space and versatility. The main bedroom enjoys views towards Edinburgh Castle and beyond to the Pentlands and benefits from a walk-in wardrobe come dressing area. The second bedroom makes a comfortable guest room, but would also make a very spacious nursery or play and sleeping space for an older child. The third bedroom currently serves as a home office, but its size means that an addition to the family would be accommodated comfortably. The spacious shower-room has a large walk-in shower with rainfall head and there is also a close couple WC and wash basin with storage space below. Velux and other windows mean that the property has plenty of natural light but that has been cleverly augmented by the previous addition of sun tubes. The owners enjoy the use of garden areas to the front and which lie behind tall hedges. Local shops, including a Scotmid mini-market, meet everyday needs, but there are branches of Tesco, Asda, Aldi, Lidl and Morrisons within easy reach on foot or by car. There are plenty of bars and restaurants only a short distance away, as well as a variety of sports facilities, for example, Craigentinny Golf Course, Granton Harbour, Leith Victoria Swim Centre, the Ainslie Park sports centre and the Newhaven David Lloyd centre. The property is also conveniently situated for the Scottish Government's offices at Victoria Quay and there are frequent bus services to and from the City Centre.
