Situated in the Leith conservation area as part of a C-listed, mid-nineteenth century, traditional tenement, this spacious, main-door, ground-floor garden flat boasts three bedrooms, an open-plan kitchen and dining room, an inviting living room, a modern bathroom, and a large private garden. It enjoys an excellent location close to outstanding amenities and is well-presented throughout with well-retained period details.
The home’s private front door opens into a vestibule leading to a central hall. In the living room, neutral décor is paired with a bold accent wall and stripped wooden floorboards to create a charming reception area for everyday use. Lavish cornice work draws the eye to the lofty dimensions, whilst a handsome feature fireplace provides the room with a delightful focal point. The space is completed by a traditional press cupboard and a large window framing garden views.
Next door, the kitchen and wood-floored dining room (with a hatch to underfloor storage) both share a convenient open plan, providing ample space for a large table for dinner parties. The kitchen is fitted with modern cabinets and solid oak worktops, backed by multi-coloured splashback tiles. It provides garden access, a freestanding dual-fuel cooker, a freestanding fridge/freezer, an integrated dishwasher, and plumbing for a washing machine.
Located throughout the flat are three bedrooms. The spacious master bedroom is presented in a soothing palette with varnished wooden floorboards, further benefitting from a large fitted wardrobe, a traditional press cupboard, ornate cornice work, and a stunning feature fireplace.
Bedroom two is also a good-size double with intricate cornicing, whereas bedroom three is a large single currently used as a study. Finally, a three-piece bathroom, with an overhead rainfall shower, completes the home. The property is warmed by gas central heating, alongside electric underfloor heating in the bathroom. The traditional sash windows are draught-proofed and most have working shutters.
Outside, the property benefits from a large private garden with timber deck and a well-kept lawn bordered by mature trees and shrubs and with two sheds providing additional storage. Unrestricted on-street parking is also available.
Located just two miles northeast of the city centre, the historic and vibrant district of Leith is characterised by an eclectic mix of bars, cafés, and eateries. The area also benefits from a wealth of retail outlets, including Ocean Terminal shopping centre, which hosts a wide range of high street stores, as well as family restaurants, a 24-hour gym and a multiplex cinema. Leith’s rich cultural scene is further enhanced by annual festivals, live music venues, galleries, and artists’ studios.
