Traditional third floor flat with many original features and delightful views over the city.
Forming part of a traditional tenement building in the heart of Comely Bank, this top-floor flat presents an exciting renovation opportunity in one of Edinburgh’s most sought-after locations.
The accommodation is arranged over one level and comprises a welcoming hallway leading to a bright bay-windowed living room, enjoying elevated views across Stockbridge towards Fettes College. The room retains attractive period features including decorative cornicing and a traditional fireplace, and is further complemented by a versatile box room, ideal as a home office, additional storage or potential extension of the reception space.
The kitchen is positioned to the rear and, although requiring upgrading, offers excellent scope for redesign, with ample space for dining and the benefit of a generous pantry/utility cupboard and separate boiler cupboard. The bedrooms are well-proportioned, with bedroom two featuring a fireplace, and the bathroom completes the layout. Two additional hallway cupboards provide further storage. The top-floor position ensures excellent natural light and impressive open outlooks.
The property benefits from gas central heating, double glazing throughout and access to a well-kept communal rear garden. On-street permit parking is available within the surrounding streets.
Requiring full modernisation, the property presents an excellent opportunity for buyers to create a bespoke home in a prime and highly desirable setting.
