Stylish, bright, and beautifully presented, Castle Glimpse is a stunning three-bedroom, southwesterly-facing corner-aspect flat with elevated views of Edinburgh Castle. A regional finalist for 2021's Scotland's Home of the Year, the property offers a tasteful mix of carefully retained period details and contemporary features. Set on the first floor, the property forms part of a classic stone-built Georgian tenement, and is ideally situated in the vibrant area of Leith, north of Edinburgh city centre. A bright and colourful stairway leads up to the first floor, and opens into a spacious entrance hall where there is wood flooring, space for outerwear, and room for freestanding storage. The generous living room offers ornate cornice-work, a ceiling rose, a feature fireplace, a press cupboard, and two large windows providing plenty of natural light and, as the name suggests, a view towards Edinburgh Castle. Through an open archway from the hall, the stylish kitchen includes ample room for dining furniture, a feature stone wall and hearth, a breakfast bar, and contemporary lighting. The kitchen itself is fitted with modern units with extensive storage, solid laminate worktops with a matching upstand, a composite sink, and an integrated fridge/freezer, oven, and gas hob with a canopy above. There are two tastefully presented double bedrooms set towards the front, both with period features and working window shutters, with bedroom one additionally including a decorative fireplace. Set to the side and offering flexible use as a home office, bedroom three offers a king size mezzanine level bed with a memory foam comfort mattress and has good space overhead with ample storage underneath. Completing the accommodation, the bathroom consists of a modern suite, a mains rainfall showerhead over the bath, and tiled splash walls.

Leith is a renowned and historic port area of Edinburgh, and is a vibrant city location with a wealth of boutique shops, cafes, bars, eateries, specialist shops, and supermarkets located throughout. With the popular Pitt Street Market moments away from the property, the nearby Shore also features a cosmopolitan range of bars, bistros, and Michelin-starred restaurants; whilst Ocean Terminal, the Omni Centre, and the soon-to-be-completed St James Quarter offer many high-street names, restaurants, gyms, and multi-screen cinemas. For further outdoor recreation, there are numerous public parks and squares to be found nearby, including Coallie Park on the Water of Leith Walkway, Victoria Park, Pilrig Park and the expansive Leith Links. The area is well-served by a number of primary schools, with secondary schooling at Trinity Academy. Frequent bus services are available from the doorstep on Ferry Road, with the new tram extension also expected to complete in 2023.

    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
