Description
15/5 Mertoun Place is a bright and beautifully presented third-floor traditional tenement flat, where fine period features combine with contemporary fixtures and fittings to create a stylish and welcoming home. The front-facing sitting room enjoys a south-westerly aspect, allowing light to fill the space, while the property also benefits from two double bedrooms, a modern kitchen and a bathroom with both a bath and separate shower enclosure. The building is entered through an entry system into a well-maintained communal hall and stair, retaining its original Terrazzo tiling. The bay-windowed sitting room is a particularly attractive space, with ornate cornicing overhead and a lovely fireplace providing a focal point. An open shelved press cupboard adds useful storage, while the generous proportions allow for both a comfortable seating arrangement and a separate dining area.
