2 bed second floor flat for sale in Old Town

Lying on Edinburgh's historic Royal Mile between Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood Palace, this is a bright and deceptively spacious two-bedroom apartment in a coveted location. Boasting spectacular views, it presents a rare opportunity for a superb pied-à-terre, desirable investment, or comfortable home. Positioned on the second floor of a mid-20th Century tenement building but built sympathetically to the earlier building and the surroundings. The front door welcomes you into a generously proportioned hallway. Adorned with carpeting, a neutral decor and walk-in cupboard, it exudes a warm ambience and leads to all accommodation. Enjoying captivating views of the Canongate, the light-filled south-facing sitting room decorated in a calm colour palette and with carpeting and a living flame fireplace is a cosy and inviting space that allows for a versatile furniture configuration. To the rear, the sizeable dining kitchen is equipped with white wall and floor units, complementary worktops, and built-in storage alongside freestanding appliances. With breathtaking views of the 19th-Century Old Royal High School and The Nelson Monument on the edge of Calton Hill, it is very much at the heart of the home. The south-facing principal double bedroom is bathed in plentiful natural light and benefits from a wonderful aspect of the Canongate. Generous in size it features a built-in cupboard and a serene colour scheme. An additional double bedroom with carpeting and built-in cupboards is a restful retreat with a delightful outlook. Each shares access to a well-appointed and traditional-style bathroom complete with a bath, shower enclosure, WC, and washbasin. Externally the property benefits from residents' parking.
