Property highlight: A stylish ground floor flat in Polwarth in walk-in condition.

A delightful, beautifully presented ground floor flat, forming part of a traditional Victorian tenement building, situated in the ever popular area of Polwarth to the west of the city centre. The home has been lovingly upgraded by the current owner to create a stylish modern home in true walk-in condition, making this the ideal purchase for couples, city professionals, first-time buyers and investors alike. In brief, the property comprises; welcoming hallway with storage cupboard and new, modern wood flooring, naturally light and spacious open plan living room/kitchen with Edinburgh press cupboard and ample floor space for two sofas and dining furniture. The beautiful kitchen is brand new and is fitted with stylish base and wall-mounted units providing ample storage and worktop space, along with appliances including fridge freezer, induction hob, cooker hood, electric oven, washing machine and dishwasher. The rear-facing double bedroom is well-proportioned and hosts a built-in walk-in wardrobe, while the modern WC room and bathroom have also been newly renovated. Highly-efficient electric heating and double glazing throughout ensure a comfortable living environment all year round. Externally, the property benefits from a shared rear garden, and ample on-street permit parking. Polwarth is a much respected residential area lying approximately two miles south of Edinburgh's city centre. The area is typified by traditional flats and villas and is bordered by the highly regarded areas of Merchiston, Bruntsfield and Morningside. The area boasts a superb range of amenities, from local shops including a Sainsbury's local and Tesco Metro, to the usual banks and postal services. Leisure facilities are excellent and include a number of fashionable bars and restaurants, with further entertainments available at the impressive Fountain Park Leisure Complex. Tollcross and the City Centre are also close by, where Edinburgh's more formal entertainments are concentrated. The property is also close to Harrison Park, Bruntsfield Links and the Union Canal walkway. Polwarth is ideal for those connected with Napier and Edinburgh Universities and the city's financial core is just a brief bus journey away. Schooling is well represented from nursery to senior level, both in the public and private sectors. An efficient public transport network operates to most parts of the town and surrounding areas, whilst the compactness of the city ensures easy access to the city bypass and main motorway networks.
