The property
An opportunity has arisen to purchase a very well situated spacious and attractive first floor flat in a traditional handsome stone built tenement within the very popular and convenient area of Marchmont. All local amenities provide day-to-day requirements and the flat is situated a short distance from the historical and business city centre of Edinburgh. Whilst the property is ideal for a professional person/couple, it is also in an excellent location for letting. There are many local shops within Marchmont including specialist shops, coffee bars and restaurants and in addition a Sainsbury's Local store, with Waitrose in nearby Morningside. For outdoor pursuits the Meadows and Bruntsfield Links are close at hand where there are tennis courts, a bowling green and a pitch and putt course. Blackford Hill and the Hermitage of Braids are also within easy reach are Warrender Swim Centre has a pool and a gymnasium which are popular for local residents. There are golf courses at Merchants, Craigmillar Park and Liberton. For schooling the property is within the area of James Gillespie's primary and high school and the flat is also convenient for George Watsons College, George Heriots and Merchiston Castle. The flat is also well situated for access to both Edinburgh University and Napier University and driving in a southerly direction connection can be made to the Edinburgh City Bypass and from there to the central motorway network, to Edinburgh International Airport and Queensferry Crossing. This is a spacious and well presented flat with a shared security entrance and the flat is the first door on the first floor of the building. There are communal gardens to the rear and parking is provided by permit and metered parking within the area. The property itself comprises a welcoming entrance hall leading to the main apartments. There is a spacious bay windowed lounge, two well proportioned double bedrooms and a good sized kitchen/dining-room at the rear. The bathroom has a three-piece suite and shower and there is, in addition, a box room. Gas central heating serves the property and whilst some internal improvement could be made to the property, it is in good condition and will be of interest to a prospective purchaser. To appreciate the excellent location of this flat and its spacious accommodation early viewing is recommended.
