**UNDER OFFER** Offering fantastic accommodation, supplemented by an enviable southerly-facing aspect, 143/3 Constitution Street further benefits from shared access to a lovely walled garden and unrestricted on-street parking. Owing to its fantastic central location, the flat lies within strolling distance of the Shore’s eclectic array of bars and eateries, Leith’s outstanding shopping amenities, and the city centre.
Accessed off a shared stairwell with secure entry-phone system, the front door opens into a spacious hall with storage. Enjoying chic grey décor, stylish accent wallpaper, plush carpeting, a dado rail, and classic cornicing, the hall provides an enticing introduction to the tastefully-modernised, period accommodation to follow. Leading off the hall is a wonderfully bright and spacious reception room. Illuminated by twin sash-and-case windows, with panelled surrounds, working shutters and pleasant leafy views, this neutrally decorated and carpeted reception area (with a large walk-in storage area) is filled with desirable original features, including cornicing and plasterwork, a ceiling rose, and an Edinburgh Press, whilst at the focal point of the space is an elegant fireplace with a cosy living-flame fire insert. Across the hall, a contemporary, minimalist kitchen awaits. Arranged around a central breakfasting peninsula, the sunny kitchen is fitted with a range of sleek white and natural wood cabinets, accompanied by coordinating worktops and wall panelling, and a Belfast sink.
Quietly set to the rear of the property with a southerly-facing aspect, the largest bedroom is stylishly-presented with subtle grey décor, a richly-toned feature wall and plush carpeting, whilst an understated authentic fireplace creates a characterful focal point. A sash-and-case window (with working shutters), a hidden Edinburgh Press, and classic cornicing also feature. The remaining bedroom is neutrally decorated and features a charming window seat, with incorporated storage, and a built-in cupboard. The versatile box room is currently being utilised as a formal dining room and could lend itself to a variety of uses, such as an occasional guest bedroom, a nursery, or a study. Finally, a pristine bathroom, presented with gleaming white wall tiles, tasteful blue and grey décor, painted wainscoting, and an oak-styled floor, comes complete with a shower-over-bath and a traditional-style WC-suite. The property is heated by an efficient gas central heating system. For added flexibility the property also has a separate basement level cellar storage area.
The Shore is a vibrant suburb, lying approximately two miles north of Edinburgh city centre, and was once a flourishing port at the heart of Edinburgh’s maritime industry. Characterised by its cobbled streets and continental-style waterfront, the area radiates a delightful, small-town character that is worlds away from the energetic city centre. The area is known for its arts and social scene, which is boosted by a fantastic array of art galleries and small boutiques, trendy bars and award-winning eateries including Michelin-starred restaurants. The Shore enjoys fantastic public transport links into the city centre and beyond, and also provides swift and easy to Edinburgh City Bypass, Edinburgh Airport and the M8/M9 motorway networks.
