Fairbrae is a red and buff brick faced modern development with grey tiled roof set within an attractive green and leafy part of the Broomhouse district of Edinburgh, lying to the west of the city centre and secreted between the Calder and Saughton Roads.

Accessed by a secure shared entrance and hall, 11/2 Fairbrae is a recently upgraded one bedroom, ground floor apartment, decorated throughout in a sophisticated and imaginative way that makes it strikingly unique. The welcoming hallway, decorated with a statement geometric patterned wall paper in shades of grey, has a large walk-in cupboard that houses both the cold-water tank and hot water cylinder and a silver-grey wood grained laminate floor. The hall offers direct access to all the apartment's rooms. The living room, large enough to both sit and dine in, has three south-east facing windows and, consequently, is a room that is flooded with light, while giving access to the adjoining kitchen. The kitchen is naturally lit, while also benefiting from the borrowed light from the living room, and has a combination of floor and wall mounted storage units, with grey doors, contrasting with the white and pastel blue walls, surround work surfaces, slot-in appliances and an integrated electric cooker with ceramic hob. The comfortable double bedroom, decorated in soporific, peaceful shades, again, faces the south-east and has a complete wall of three double door built-in wardrobes. The naturally lit bathroom, sharply decorated in a contrast of white and sea green, has a white three-piece suite, including a protected shower bath, with a Mira electric shower over it.

There are modern eco-friendly Dimplex electric heating units in each room and the apartment is double glazed throughout. There are precisely tended private grounds surrounding the development that accommodate residents parking.

The factors are Hacking & Patterson and the charge is approx. £150 per quarter.

Area:
Discretely placed between the residential areas of Murrayfield and Balgreen, Broomhouse and, consequently, Fairbrae offer a serene yet central location to the west of the city centre that is proving both fashionable and desirable due to its excellent transport links and richness and choice of local amenities.

The location has its own shops and services, while also benefiting from neighbouring Balgreen that has a Scotmid store, a post office, and a library; there is also a large Asda, on New Mart Road and an M&S food store, on Chesser Avenue, in nearby Gorgie. For traditional high-street shopping, St John's Road is a few minutes' drive away and provides a varied mix of independent necessity shops and high street retailers.

Saughton Park, with its rose garden, skate park and sports complex, offers marvellous opportunities for outdoor activities and recreation. The district is crossed by the Water of Leith, so the Walkway is ideal for exercise and recreation or as a sensible walking or cycling route into the centre of Edinburgh. Both Carrick Knowe and Murrayfield Golf Courses are very conveniently placed for Fairbrae.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
