Part of a prestigious conservation area, this two-bedroom first-floor flat occupies an enviable position in Bruntsfield as part of a C-listed Victorian terrace with yellow sandstone ashlar dressings and unique Frenchfield dormer windows. The city home enjoys large rooms with high ceilings and neutral decoration throughout, adding to its strong appeal. Period features add further character, particularly in the expansive living/dining room which perfectly captures the charms of Victorian sensibilities. The breakfasting kitchen offers excellent storage, while the two double bedrooms ensure flexible space for small families and professionals alike. A modern shower room completes the interiors. Altogether, this property is a beautiful home in a highly desirable location, just a brisk walk from the heart of Edinburgh city centre. Entrance – Step inside a charming city home with Victorian character The flat is accessed via a secure telephone-entry system and a traditional shared stairwell that is neatly maintained. Opening the front door, you are warmly invited into the home by an entrance hall, defined by crisp white décor which is brightened by varnished wooden floorboards and four-panel timber doors. A built-in cupboard helps create a clutter-free welcome too. Reception room – An elegant reception room with eye-catching period details Refined and elegant, the living room immediately catches the eye with its wealth of period features. Here, the most exquisite cornice work highlights the lofty ceiling, while a south-facing bay window brings leafy views inside, its curvature forming the perfect dining spot. The understated décor adds to the room's refinement, along with the picture frames and rail. A handsome electric fireplace completes the aesthetic. Spanning just under 367 square feet, this reception area promises lots of space for furniture and various layouts as well. Kitchen – A charming breakfasting kitchen with a galley-style layout Next door to the living area, the breakfasting kitchen also enjoys a south-facing aspect, the window framed by working wooden shutters and a touch of colour from stained-glass art. The white base and wall units are arranged in a galley style, providing ample cabinet storage alongside downlit worksurfaces in stone effect. Splashback tiles (with floral motifs) frame the worktops, while clever storage to the rear offers further practicality. Thanks to its layout, there is plenty of space in the centre for a breakfast table and chairs, creating a delightful locale for morning coffee. Bedrooms – Two double bedrooms promising a quiet night's rest The two double bedrooms are set side by side to the northern section of the home. Both have spacious footprints and tranquil garden outlooks, with sash windows adding to the airy ambience. The two rooms are further enhanced by neutral décor and soft carpets, ensuring a comfortable environment that fosters a peaceful night's rest. The principal bedroom has additional practicality thanks to generous shelving and an Edinburgh press cupboard. The intricate cornice work provides a final flourish of period charm. Shower room – A spacious shower room with modern fixtures The three-piece shower room is conveniently located between the living area and principal bedroom. It is an excellent size too. It features a WC suite linked by a countertop and cabinet storage, a large fitted mirror, and a walk-in shower area with a foldable seat for accessibility. Gas central heating provides year-round comfort, while traditional sash and case windows ensure the accommodation is bathed in lots of natural light. Furthermore, the window shutters are all in working order and they are lockable too. Outdoors & Parking – Close to Edinburgh's best-loved green spaces The property is just a brief stroll from the sprawling greens of Bruntsfield Links and The Meadows.
