3B/2 East Preston Street boasts immaculate interiors and spacious accommodation, with two double bedrooms, a bay-windowed living room, and a modern dining kitchen. It also comes with private allocated parking and is an ideal home for city professionals, small families, and buy-to-let investors.
Accessed off a secure communal stairwell, the front door to the flat opens into a hallway with inviting neutral décor and timber-toned flooring. With a cupboard for storage, it provides a warm welcome which extends into the living room on the left. Here, the light palette creates a peaceful environment, whilst the generous footprint allows a great selection of comfortable lounge furniture for socialising and entertaining. The room is generously glazed too, including a bay window, which floods the space in warm sun. Next door, the dining kitchen is fitted with wood-style cabinets and black granite-effect worktops, along with appliances, with the design ensuring plenty of room for a dining table.
On the opposite side of the hall, the two double bedrooms enjoy south-facing aspects and soft decoration. The two rooms also come with open wardrobe fixtures for greater floor space, with the principal bedroom boasting the more generous footprint. Finishing the home is a modern three-piece bathroom with a shower-over-bath and an attractive mix of tiling and wet walling. Gas central heating ensures year-round warmth, whilst sash windows bring added charm.
Externally, the development offers private allocated parking and a prime location within easy walking distance of some of Edinburgh’s finest outdoor settings, namely The Meadows and Arthur’s Seat.
