Enviably located within easy walking distance of the Water of Leith and the award-winning amenities of Leith’s fashionable Shore district, this stylish, two-bedroom, maisonette flat occupies the first and second floor of a modern development. Beautifully presented throughout, the home boasts an ultra-modern living room, a private balcony with spectacular views and a contemporary dining kitchen. It represents an ideal home for city professionals and urban families. 360* Virtual Video Tour Available - Accessed via a secure telephone-entry system and a shared stairwell to the first floor, the front door to the home opens with a warm welcome into an entrance hall for coats and shoes. It has three built-in storage cupboards and immediately sets the high standards of accommodation with its attractive décor and vinyl parquet flooring. It flows ahead into the dual-aspect dining kitchen, which continues the appealing theme of decoration. Here, there is a delightful dining area for lively dinner parties and relaxed meals together, the kitchen itself cleverly arranged in a U-shape to provide additional floorspace. The cooking area has a contemporary, on-trend design, fitted with timber-toned base and wall cabinets and generous worksurfaces in stone effect. Fashionable metro splashback tiles in white complete the sophisticated look, along with an integrated gas hob, concealed extractor, and an eye-level double oven. There is space for a freestanding fridge/freezer and washing machine as well. From the hall, a staircase rises to the second-floor, galleried landing, which has two additional cupboards for storage. To the right is the living room, which enjoys ultra-modern interior design and hardwood flooring. It offers spacious proportions for a comfortable L-shaped sofa, and it is filled with natural light from dual-aspect glazing that includes a generous arrangement of windows and a glazed door leading onto the private balcony. Perfect for potting plants and as a tranquil space for relaxation or evening meals with a sunset, the balcony is of a good size, further benefitting from spectacular views all the way to Arthur’s Seat and Calton Hill. The two double bedrooms are on this floor, located side by side: one decorated with an olive-toned feature wall set against a neutral backdrop, the other tastefully arranged as a child’s bedroom. Both rooms feature plush carpeting for optimal comfort and good-size dimensions for a choice of bedside furniture. The principal bedroom also has a beneficial southeast-facing aspect, whilst bedroom two looks out onto the balcony. Finally, a modern three-piece bathroom (with an overhead shower) completes the home, presented with sandy-toned tiling and a subtle border. Gas central heating (including vertical radiators) and double glazing ensure outstanding comfort.
