Nestled on Granton waterfront, which is scheduled to undergo significant regeneration in the near future, this two-bedroom end-terrace villa represents a rare opportunity to acquire a C-listed home of historic significance; built circa 1850 to house workers at the newly constructed Granton Harbour. The property now requires full and extensive refurbishment, and may allow scope for internal reconfiguration, subject to obtaining the requisite building and planning consents.
To the front of the property there are magnificent northerly views across the Firth of Forth towards Fife, and is just a stone’s throw from the sandy waterfront and marina. The front door opens into a spacious hall with an enclosed staircase to the first floor. To the left is a dual-aspect living room with direct access to the rear courtyard. To the right is a well-proportioned breakfasting kitchen. Completing the ground floor is a generous bedroom with a built-in cupboard that extends underneath the stairs. The first floor accommodates a good-sized double bedroom with a walk-in cupboard and a wonderful, open aspect stretching across the Firth of Forth towards Fife, encompassing the quaint marina and stone breakwater. Also on this level is the bathroom, which benefits from a south-facing aspect. The property features double glazing, gas central heating system and an enclosed, south-facing courtyard garden to the rear. Unrestricted on-street parking is available.
