The property

This is a spacious top floor flat retaining several of the attractive original features dating from circa 1900 when these tenements were built, such as a pretty cast iron fireplace, cornicing and an archway in the hall featuring small plaster busts of ladies heads. The flat has been upgraded so it also has a contemporary feel suited to today's lifestyles and it is smartly presented. Downfield Place lies on the south side of Dalry Road. It is well served by bus and tram transport links into and out of the city centre and it is situated in close proximity to the new office development and railway station at Haymarket and Edinburgh's West End. The surrounding area includes many local amenities including multiple supermarkets, a cinema, a gym and several restaurants, as well as the Union Canal, Harrison Park and a cycle path.

  • Hall / Landing

    With a polished wooden floor and crisp white paintwork, this gives access to all rooms in the flat except the Home Office/Nursery. The central archway with the classical ladies is most definitely a feature.

  • Lounge

    3.96 m X 3.94 m / 13'0" X 12'11"

    Your eye is immediately drawn to the pretty fireplace which is the focal point of the room. South-west facing it receives lots of afternoon and evening sunlight. There is an open shelved Edinburgh Press. Light blue paintwork coupled with white. Warm grey carpet. Access to Home Office/Nursery

  • Home Office/Nursery

    1.88 m X 1.85 m / 6'2" X 6'1"

    Perfect for a home office, however this room could occupy a variety of roles if not required as a work space.

  • Kitchen Dining Room

    5.18 m X 3.25 m / 17'0" X 10'8"

    An excellent size, this has been very well fitted out with floor and wall units offering all that is needed, with a nice outlook to the back. The wooden work surfaces are pleasing to the eye. This comes with a gas hob, electric oven, fridge freezer and washing machine. The Dining alcove comfortably holds a sizeable table and chairs for entertaining. As is usual the original coal cupboard is now an exceptionally useful storage space.

  • Bedroom

    4.55 m X 2.74 m / 14'11" X 9'0"

    This is a surprisingly large room, given that many tenement bedrooms are somewhat on the pokey side. Like the Kitchen it is situated to the back of the building making it very quiet and private. Large mirrored doored wardrobes included. Open shelved Edinburgh Press. It is decorated in a pleasing blend of mink and white. Warm grey carpet.

  • Shower Room

    Very well fitted out with a large, enclosed shower unit and a modern square sink. Tiled finish to the walls. Heated towel rail.

  • WC

    Across the hallway from the Shower Room, this is contemporary. Skylight.
