An incredibly spacious two-bedroom, UNFURNISHED apartment with a large private garden, conservatory and extensive storage. Extensively renovated for a new tenancy. Tenants will also be able to apply for access to the exclusive Regent, Royal and Carlton Terrace Gardens. Available now!

Note that the property is to be let UNFURNISHED and the furnished photos are for illustrative purposes only.

Located within the prestigious Calton Hill neighbourhood in the heart of Edinburgh, this exclusive property is a self-contained lower-ground flat within a traditional Georgian townhouse designed and built by William Playfair in 1821. It features expansive rooms and ample storage space. Access to the front door is from the terrace via a large patio area. A long, brightly-lit hallway leads to all rooms.

The main bedroom is brilliantly bright and spacious. It features two large sash and case windows, each with its own original wooden shutters. Like most of the rooms in the proeprty, this room has been freshly recarpeted and repainted. This room leads to a good-sized box room that connects the main bedroom to what has been designated as the living room. This has previously been used as a nursery, but it could just as easily be used as a home office or walk-in wardrobe space.

The master bedroom itself has a beautiful vantage of the walled private garden and a gas fireplace that makes a brilliant focal point to this large room. Like most of the property, it has a wooden-effect laminate floor. This flooring gives a tasteful appearance but remains easy to clean. As the property is unfurnished, the successful applicant would be able to swap the roles of each room, if desired.

The second bedroom is a good-size and has its own ensuite shower room. It also has a large walk-in wardrobe, making it perfect for those requiring lots of space for clothing and shoes!

The kitchen has a dishwasher, fridge, electric oven and gas hob, as well as plenty of floor, worktop and cupboard space. The kitchen is adjacent to the conservatory (which could function as a brilliant dining area, although there is ample space for a dining table in the kitchen or the living room). The conservatory stretches out into the private, enclosed garden. This sheltered, natural sanctuary can be accessed directly from the lane to the rear of the property. A brilliant outdoor space for relaxing and entertaining, it also includes a herb garden and washing line. The property is pet friendly, making this garden a brilliant addition for those with four-legged friends!

The central part of the property makes maximum use of the space available. This is the location of the stylish main bathroom which has been completely renovated in the past few months. The chest freezer is housed in the separate pantry/wine cellar. This is one of the many original, quirky features of this stunning property and is ideal for storing not just wine, but also luggage, holiday clothes, non-perishable foodstuff, seasonal decorations and more. The 9kg washer-dryer has its own laundry room, complete with shelving for linen and cleaning supplies.

The space available at this property continues with a separate windowed room located under the terrace itself. Accessible from the front patio, this room is fully connected to the electricity supply, meaning that it could make a perfect home office, storage space or exercise room.

One of the biggest draws of this property is the opportunity to apply for access to the outstanding private garden complex, Regent Gardens. This 12-acre expanse of greenery is only accessible by those living in the Calton Hill area and covers the entirety of its Western face. It has amazing views of Arthur's Seat and the Firth of Forth. It has a tennis court and hosts various community get-togethers throughout the year. See further on the Regent, Royal and Carlton Terrace Gardens here: . Note that any access would be subject to an application to the garden committee and may take several months.

This Grade A listed property is in the heart of Edinburgh's Calton Hill at the western reaches of the New Town UNESCO World Heritage Site. This area of the city is one of the most well-regarded neighbourhoods in Scotland. Despite being a quiet cobbled street, its central location means that various independent shops, bakeries, bars, cafes and restaurants are within a short walk of the front door. It is also only a 15-minute walk from the Omni Centre (with its cinema and restaurants), the St James Quarter (with its designer shops, bars and eateries) and Princes Street (with its big brand shops including M&S). Likewise, both Edinburgh Waverley train station and tram links to Edinburgh Airport are only 15 minutes away on foot, making this property as ideal for those who have to work outside the city, as those that have to work outwith it.

The property would be ideal for a professional/couple or indeed a small family who are looking to move somewhere with a central location, a strong sense of community, and ample access to outdoor space.
