The property

Closing date set for Thursday 17th September at 12 noon. Forming part of an imposing, A-listed, terraced Victorian townhouse in sought-after Bruntsfield, within the Merchiston and Greenhill conservation area, this first-floor flat enjoys two bedrooms, one/two reception rooms, a wealth of lovingly-retained period features, and tranquil views of Bruntsfield Links and partial views of Edinburgh Castle. The flat lies within strolling distance of a wealth of local amenities including shops, cafés, and restaurants, as well as excellent transport links and scenic green spaces. The flat’s front door is approached via a secure shared stairwell and you are welcomed inside by an airy, high-ceilinged hallway with two large built-in storage cupboards. On your right, you step into the impressive, exceptionally generous living room. Extended by a large bay window framing lovely, leafy views of the adjacent Bruntsfield Links and partial views of Edinburgh Castle, this magnificent reception room offers a generous floorspace for a variety of furniture layouts, and boasts a wealth of lovingly-preserved period features: including a marble fireplace, working window shutters, beautifully-intricate cornicing and traditional windows. On the opposite side of the hall, a sunny kitchen awaits. Although it would benefit from some upgrading, the kitchen currently comprises a selection of wall and base cabinets framed by spacious worktops, with space provided for freestanding and undercounter appliances.The flat also incorporates two large double bedrooms. The larger of the two enjoys many of the same period features as the living room, as well as the same tranquil views of Bruntsfield Links. The second bedroom is illuminated by two large south-facing windows allowing sunshine to stream in, and is currently being utilised as a dining room, highlighting the versatility of the home. The room also benefits from two built-in storage cupboards. Finally, a modern wet room, fitted in 2015, completes the accommodation on offer and comprises a shower area, a wall-mounted sink, a toilet, and a tall, chrome towel radiator. The flat is heated by way of an electric heating system. Externally, permit parking on Bruntsfield Crescent falls under Zone S2.
