Part of a traditional tenement building, 102/2 Buccleuch Street represents a fantastic investment opportunity or an ideal city home for professionals and first-time buyers.
Accessed via a secure communal entrance and stairwell, the front door opens into a welcoming hallway. On the left, the living/dining room provides a bright and airy ambience that is further enhanced by a south-west facing sash window with a stunning view of the rugged crags of Arthur’s Seat. The floor plan has room for comfortable lounge furniture to be set around a feature fireplace. Convenient built-in storage and a gas fire with a timber mantelpiece complete the room. The kitchen comes fitted with a good selection of base and wall cabinets and ample workspace. Two neighbouring double bedrooms enjoy a light profile. The first bedroom, with two sash windows, also offers a neat Edinburgh Press. With built-in storage, a bright three-piece shower room (illuminated by a skylight) completes the home.
Traditional sash windows add charm and character to the flat, with an efficient gas central heating system providing year round comfort. Externally, there is a communal garden with a lawn and mature trees to the rear, with controlled parking available at the front with a residents’ permit (Zone 3).
Newington is within walking distance of the city centre and is home to a mix of independent shops and well-known high street retailers, plus artisan coffee houses, trendy bars, restaurants, and traditional pubs. The Festival Theatre and the Queen’s Hall are within striking distance of the fat and in the summer months Newington becomes the epicentre of the famous Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The property sits across from the Meadows and within easy reach of Holyrood Park. Its proximity to Edinburgh University makes it an ideal location for students. Newington is further enhanced by superb public transport services, in addition to easy access to Edinburgh City Bypass, Edinburgh Airport and the M8/M9 motorway networks.
