The property
A FIRST FLOOR FLAT REQUIRING UPGRADING with obvious potential to create two bedrooms by re-configuring the rooms. Sandport Street is nowadays a cul de sac off Commercial Street (A199 north ring road) and comprises stone built traditional tenements. All of Leith's much admired Waterfront attractions are literally on the doorstep. Entrance at ground floor into shared stairway (entryphone) & Hall, Living room; Kitchen; Bedroom & Bathroom. Leith has been regenerating for some 30 years and nowadays is a busy "Bohemian" quarter offering a host of attractions centred around the Shore vicinity. There's a fine selection of bars, bistros, cafe's & restaurants, as well as quaint little shops; a new ALDI supermarket and numerous "knickknack outlets; the Ocean Terminal complex is just along the road and Leith's burgeoning Saturday market only 2 mins' walk from the property. The walkway along the banks of the Water of Leith, Leith Links & Victoria swimming baths provide opportunities for recreation. The north ring road allows for speedy access to the motorway network & airport to the west, and down towards the East Lothian coat to the east. The area appeals to investors as it does attract "blue-chip" tenants able and willing to pay premium rents. This flat has huge potential. It is in a well- kept shared stair and offers currently, three rooms and two boxrooms. Those are set out as livingroom, bedroom and bathroom, with a kitchenette one of the boxrooms. An comparatively easy conversion would see the bathroom become the second bedroom; the present kitchen,a new bathroom and the boxroom off the livingroom, a new kitchen. *See the sketch drawing. Clearly, as a modernisation of the existing layout is also possible, of course.
