The property

Immaculately-presented in a true move-in condition, this two-bedroom first-floor apartment forms part of an exclusive contemporary development (with landscaped grounds and private residents' parking) in desirable Portobello. Enjoying the best of both worlds, the apartment lies enviably close to excellent shops, schools, transport links, and the picturesque seafront: a location that will no doubt appeal to first-time buyers, professionals, young families, downsizers and rental investors alike. The flat is accessed via a secure entry system and a shared stairwell (shared with just three other apartments) to the first floor, where the front door opens into a hallway. Here, crisp-white decor and richly-toned flooring create a welcoming first impression and give the first taste of the immaculate accommodation to follow. On your left, you step into the very heart of the home: the open-plan kitchen, living and dining room. Offering the perfect space for cooking, dining and relaxing with family and friends, this generous, airy room continues the pristine finish of the hall with the same decor and flooring, enhanced by a stylish block colour accent wall in the kitchen. Ideal for home cooks and foodies, the kitchen is equipped with a wide selection of gloss-white wall and base units accompanied by wood-styled worktops and a full range of neatly- integrated Electrolux appliances: namely an electric fan oven, a gas hob paired with a splashback panel, an extractor hood, a fridge/freezer, a washing machine, and a dishwasher. Plenty of space is provided for a large dining table and chairs, whilst the living area promises flexibility for various lounge furniture layouts. Across the hall, two double bedrooms await. The sunny master bedroom enjoys crisp-white walls enhanced by an on-trend navy feature wall and a plush fitted carpet, incorporates a large, mirrored built-in wardrobe and has the luxury of an en-suite shower room replete with a double shower enclosure, a basin, a toilet, and a towel warmer. The second bedroom also boasts a sunny aspect. A stylishly-tiled, airy bathroom completes the accommodation on offer and comprises a bathtub, a pedestal basin, a toilet, and a chrome towel radiator. Gas central heating and double glazing ensure year-round comfort and efficiency. Externally, the development is set in well-maintained, landscaped shared grounds and accommodates private residents' parking. EPC Rating: B.
