The property

Started being built in 1812, Nelson Street has been described in the Edinburgh volume of 'The Buildings of Scotland' as consisting of main door and common stair tenements of suitably high quality. It runs south to north from Abercromby Place to Drummond Place with a side step at Northumberland Street and the flat on offer is just round the corner from Northumberland Street on the West side. It was redeveloped within the fairly recent past, incorporating a previous electricians shop at street level, and it is a cracking contemporary flat with lots of space situated slap bang in Edinburgh's glorious New Town, with all the amenities and superb city living that the area has to offer. When the flat was modernised, it was undertaken to the highest specifications and standards and it remains in excellent condition. Regularly redecorated over the past few years, it has gas central heating and a full alarm system. The flooring virtually throughout is oak hardwood, with the exception of the bathroom and shower-room which have marble and ceramic tiling respectively. All the kitchen appliances will be included in the sale.

  • Open Plan Lounge, Kitchen and Dining Room

    10.39 m X 3.3 m / 34'1" X 10'10"

    This stretches from the front to the back of the building, with a picture window to the East where the shop would have been. It is a smart room, with the quality oak flooring being teamed with one deep red wall in a classic shade and off white elsewhere. The kitchen area is very well fitted giving lots of storage and work surface space. It comes with gas hob, inbuilt electric oven and microwave, fridge freezer, washing machine and dishwasher. The curtains may be available by negotiation should the buyers wish. Glass panelled door to the hallway.

  • Hall / Landing

    The circular stone stairs (reminiscent of those found in medieval castles) curve down to the left. There is track lighting and a chunky substantial rope banister. Basement Hallway This is a pleasant area, off which the three bedrooms are ‘staggered’ giving an unusual but attractive layout. There are various shelved areas for books and such like. All the doors are of substantial lovely wood.

  • Master Bedroom

    4.24 m X 3.81 m / 13'11" X 12'6"

    This is a generously proportioned room which is entered along a ‘dressing room’ style hallway – no lack of storage space here with partners fighting over who has pinched the majority of the cupboards! This room is decorated in pale blue and off white, nice and restful. There is a window out to the front basement area, with a shelved alcove beside it.

  • Ensuite

    Fully tiled, this has a contemporarily designed white three piece suite plus a shower cabinet in one corner. Ceramic floor tiles in grey/brown.

  • Home Office/Study

    3.17 m X 3.17 m / 10'5" X 10'5"

    Located off the Master Bedroom this is a surprisingly big room which makes a terrific home office, these being very sought after in the current climate. It also looks out to the front area and it has a door which opens out to this.

  • Bedroom 2

    4.72 m X 3.45 m / 15'6" X 11'4"

    Currently laid out as a twin room, this has a door that leads out to the wee secret walled courtyard. There is a superb walk in dressing room, beautifully fitted out, which is bigger than many of the box rooms to be found in Edinburgh. If young professionals were to be sharing the flat, this could not be considered to be a ‘short straw’. Alternatively, a teenager would find this an excellent small suite within which to be away from the parents.

  • Bedroom 3

    4.42 m X 3.3 m / 14'6" X 10'10"

    Despite being the smallest of the 3 bedrooms, this is by no means shoe-box sized. It is an attractive space, as it incorporates a curved wall, this being the inside of the staircase. It is decorated in attractive soft shades of moss green. The window looks out to the walled courtyard and there are fitted wardrobes incorporating mirrored panels. There is also a shelved cupboard just behind the door

  • Shower Room

    This is fully tiled, to tone with the marble flooring and there is a large mirror which reflects the light. The Shower cubicle is an excellent size. White WC and sink around which are very chic fitted cupboards.

  • Outside

    As is the way in Edinburgh, there is a cellar off the basement area which belongs to the flat. Part of the area belongs to this flat, the other part to the adjacent flat. There is also a hidden small walled courtyard with a mirror in a wrought iron surround which has a door from Bedroom 2.
