Enjoying some recent refurbishment, 3 Harbour Place represents an appealing family home with exciting further scope for modernisation.
The front door opens into a welcoming hall featuring warm-hued décor, practical wood-inspired flooring, and under-stair storage. Ahead, you are drawn into a living room illuminated by twin windows framing garden views. A stylish feature wall and plush carpet provides an elegant touch, whilst a contemporary fireplace creates a cosy focal point. The adjoining kitchen (with garden access), was installed in 2019 and offers distinct zones for cooking and seated dining. The room is fitted with gloss-grey units paired with contrasting granite-inspired worktops and splashbacks, along with neatly integrated appliances. A WC (also refurbished in 2019) completes the ground floor.
A staircase leads to a first-floor landing with a trio of store cupboards. From here two double bedrooms, a three-piece shower room and a further WC are accessed. The bedrooms enjoy generous dimensions in addition to convenient fitted storage, and a lovely open rooftop outlook as far as the Firth of Forth. Gas central heating and double glazing ensure year-round comfort and efficiency.
Outside, the home enjoys a private, enclosed garden with graveled and paved areas offering a perfect space for outdoor entertaining, and overlooking the historic Portobello Bottle Kiln. A shed offers extra storage or a workshop. Private residents’ parking is available to the front.
Located approx. three miles northeast of the city centre, the desirable suburb of Portobello enjoys the best of both worlds: a quaint seaside ambience with the perks of city life right on its doorstep. Within walking distance of sandy beaches and close to picturesque East Lothian countryside, it’s easy to see why this is one of the capital's most popular postcodes. The area is served by a fantastic range of local services and amenities, with more extensive shopping facilities available in Musselburgh or Fort Kinnaird just a short drive away. The bustling High Street is lined with cafes, restaurants, galleries, independent retailers, several bakers, butchers and greengrocers. Portobello offers a superb choice of schools in both the public and private sector. It is within the catchment areas for well-regarded Towerbank, St. John’s RC and Brunstane primary schools, with both Portobello and Holyrood high schools within easy reach. The area is extremely popular with commuters owing to its excellent public transport links into the city centre, as well as its close proximity to Edinburgh City Bypass and the A1.
