12/2 Meadowfield Drive lies east of the city centre, neighbouring Willowbrae and the historic Duddingston conservation village. Nestled at the foot of Arthur’s Seat, with the vast open spaces of Holyrood Park and Duddingston Loch to the west, and Portobello Beach to the northeast, you have some of the capital’s most outstanding natural landscapes and views right on your doorstep.
Nestled back from the road behind a private front garden, a communal entrance leads via the front door into the generous hall with built-in storage. Set at the front of the flat, the living/dining room has a west-facing aspect overlooking Meadowfield Park opposite, and flooding the room with natural light. There is ample space for lounge and dining furniture to be set around a feature stone hearth with an inset gas fire. The galley style kitchen, with a leafy outlook, is fitted with a range of cabinets and there is built-in storage cupboards. The two double bedrooms are both amply proportioned to accommodate a range of freestanding furniture and offer quiet leafy outlooks; bedroom one further boasts two built-in cupboards. Completing the spacious accommodation is a modern, tiled family bathroom, which incorporates a bath (with shower over), WC, and washbasin set within a vanity unity.
The property boasts gas central heating and double glazing; a private lockable under-stair store; a private front garden with a lawn and borders for colour and privacy; a communal garden, with a drying green, which opens to a vast additional recreational space, offering a lawn interspersed with mature trees, creating a wonderful, enclosed outdoor haven. Unrestricted parking is available on Meadowfield Drive.
The area offers a range of outdoor pursuits, from walking, cycling and hiking in Holyrood Park, to golf at Duddingston Golf Club or Portobello Golf Course. The area is served by fantastic local services and amenities, particularly on nearby Portobello High Street, which is lined with an array of traditional shops and businesses, plus several thriving cafes, pubs and restaurants. Duddingston is within the catchment area of Parsons Green Primary School, the new St John’s Primary School, Holy Rood RC High School and the new Portobello High School. Its close proximity to Edinburgh City Bypass and the A1 allows swift and convenient travel across the city and further afield. Nearby Brunstane train station and several bus routes also provide comprehensive public transport links, day and night.
