Beautiful three-bedroom, double upper Colony flat with period features and a private garden. The property is one of the sought-after Colonies flats within the Lochend area, located to the north east of Edinburgh city centre. The ground floor entrance stairway leads up to the hall which serves a compact modern WC and the stripped wood original stairway up to the second floor. With decorative plasterwork, the bright living room features quality wood laminate flooring, a working open fire, open press and bay window allowing lots of natural light. Set to the rear, the immaculate dining kitchen is fitted with Shaker-style units with wood effect worktops, a double Belfast-style ceramic sink and tiled splashbacks. Appliances include an integrated induction hob, electric oven, microwave, extractor hood, dishwasher, washing machine and freestanding fridge/freezer. On the same level, bedroom three may be used flexibly as a guest bedroom or study, whilst set off the kitchen, the office may also be used as a utility room. On the second floor, there are two double bedrooms, both featuring sanded and varnished original floorboards and dormer windows, and completing the accommodation, the bathroom is fitted with a traditional-style four-piece bathroom suite with a freestanding roll-top bath and separate shower enclosure.

Lochend is a popular residential area located east of Edinburgh centre, consisting of a mixture of family-sized homes and established residential developments. Local shops can be found throughout and in the surrounding districts of Leith and Easter Road. There is a Morrisons superstore on Portobello Road, a Sainsbury's at Meadowbank Retail Park, and an extensive range of high-street names and a multiplex cinema at Fort Kinnaird. Nearby Portobello offers open spaces and the famous seafront promenade, whilst the extensive Holyrood Park and Arthur's Seat parklands are also close by. The area offers a good choice of well-regarded schools catering for all levels, and this east of city centre location gives good road links in and out of the city via the A1 and A199, with regular public transport available from Restalrig Avenue and Portobello Road.
