Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • 6 bedrooms
  • 3 reception rooms
  • 3 bathrooms
6 Chester Street, consisting of three two bedroom apartments, is a magnificent example of Georgian period architecture. The property underwent an extensive and meticulous refurbishment in 2016, resulting in the creation of three stunning, two bedroom apartments. All care has been taken to maintain the outstanding original character of the building, whilst introducing many new features designed to provide the comforts and convenience of 21st century luxury and modernity.

This spectacular offering comprises three apartments, set over three floors (ground, first and second) and is accessed via a grand entrance at ground level. The magnificent entrance hall sets the tone both in terms of the scale and the quality of the finish.

All three apartments have been beautifully decorated and the accommodation on all levels benefits from excellent natural light, a mixture of elegant and contemporary cornice work and working shutters. Each apartment has been carefully designed to create the best possible environment and this is evident through the bespoke, luxurious kitchens featuring central islands, handle-less lacquered kitchen units, Siemens appliances and silestone work surfaces. Attractive engineered oak flooring has been installed in all living and hall areas.

Each apartment benefits from two good sized double bedrooms (most with built-in wardrobes), all boasting a southern orientation resulting in excellent natural light. The bedrooms are serviced by a shower room, finished with a high specification walk-in shower, heated towel rail, large mirror and high quality designer sanitary ware and tiling.

These truly spectacular city centre apartments are positioned in a highly sought after West End location. The wonderful living proportions, combined with elegant accommodation, makes this a superb opportunity for an investor.

With new regulations expected in the coming years in the short let market, this presents a unique opportunity for an investor to purchase a strong asset and maintain control of the whole entrance hallway and stair. This is likely to ensure it can be let as short term holiday lets or as private rental tenancies in the future.


Located in the very heart of Edinburgh's West End, the apartments on Chester Street are in a wonderful, central position, with the historic beauty of the Capital right on their doorstep. The property is situated close to many of the city's financial institutions and is within walking distance of George Street, Princes Street and Charlotte Square, which form the commercial heart of the city. The West End is host to many of the city's fashionable boutiques, bars and restaurants and cosmopolitan Stockbridge is also nearby. Recreational facilities include nearby gyms, well known restaurants, The Usher Hall, Murrayfield Rugby Stadium and the Modern and Dean Art Galleries. Pleasant walks can be enjoyed along the nearby Water of Leith walkway and through the Royal Botanic Gardens. Haymarket train station is within easy walking distance and the tram network provides an efficient service to Edinburgh Airport.

    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
