Welcome to 16/4 Donaldson Crescent

An architect-designed development centred around one of the most important landmark buildings in Edinburgh: an A-listed (Elizabethan-style) former hospital (1842-52) by William Playfair. The apartment is carefully curated to an exceptional specification, with beautiful interior design and high-end fixtures and fittings. It offers refinement and sociable open-plan living, as well as a state-of-the-art kitchen, and three premium washrooms. This luxurious city home further benefits from secure private parking, a private terrace, and shared use of the estate’s garden grounds, covering 16 acres. In addition, it has a highly sought-after location in the Wester Coates conservation area, just a stroll from Edinburgh’s West End and the heart of the city centre.

The apartment is reached via a secure (app-controlled) video-phone entry system and a lift service, with the front door opening into a vestibule and central hall (both with generous storage). It is a fantastic introduction, heightened by the minimalist-inspired styling.

Reception Rooms - A sliding door reveals the open-plan reception room, which combines a living and dining area, with a kitchen and a study zone. This expansive space continues the hall’s neutral décor and wood floor, ensuring a bright and airy ambience along with the double-height ceiling and triple-aspect windows, which frame views of the iconic Donaldson’s building. Glazed doors slide open to extend the room outwards, doubling the space by flowing onto a private terrace for relaxing and dining in the sun – all whilst admiring one of the most spectacular views of Playfair’s incredible architecture.

Kitchen - Supplied by Kitchens International, the kitchen has a high-specification design which perfectly matches the neutral aesthetic, amplifying the sense of space. Neatly zoned to the rear of the room behind a large central island, it incorporates sleek handle-less cabinets and deluxe Silestone worktops. Undercabinet lighting further brightens the space, whilst integrated appliances by Gaggenau and Siemens add to the ultra-modern streamlined look. There is also an instant hot water Quooker tap and a separate utility room providing a quiet space for laundry.
