An amazing opportunity to purchase a two-bedroom, first floor flat, in a contemporary development on a quiet residential street, adjoining iconic and vibrant Leith Walk, in one of the most amenity rich areas of Edinburgh. It will require modernising and redecorating throughout.
The front door opens into the hall that has not only a large storage cupboard, but also a box room with two separate doors. The south-east facing living room has a pair of full height windows and its rectangular shape allows it to define areas for both sitting and dining. The naturally lit kitchen is fully serviced and houses the gas fired central heating boiler. It does, however, require upgrading.
There are two double bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes with twin sliding doors and the accommodation is completed by a naturally lit bathroom that currently has a three-piece suite. Again, it will require upgrading.
The flat is double glazed and has gas fired central heating and there is permit parking directly outside the front door of the development.
The block is managed by Harbour Homes Scotland Limited. Invoices are issued every quarter (in arrears) at £114.15 to cover grounds maintenance; stair cleaning; buildings insurance and management fees.
Regular servicing costs and reactive repairs are also charged in arrears per quarter which are variable.

Area:
Albert Street joins Leith Walk and is situated approximately half a mile from Princes Street. In June 2023, the new extension to the Edinburgh Tram's cross city system connected Leith and Newhaven, via Leith Walk, to the current terminus on York Place, and consequently the McDonald Street stop is close to Albert Street.
At the top of Leith Walk, the recently completed dynamic and exciting Edinburgh St James Quarter provides a world-class retail, leisure, hotel and residential amenity. The Playhouse Theatre and Omni Centre are also close by.
Leith is the iconic, cosmopolitan and very popular port area of Edinburgh and is a thriving part of the city. The modern and traditional mix of buildings contributes to Leith's charm and consequent appeal. It is a high amenity area with a wide selection of convenience and specialist shopping, with the additional benefit of a Sainsbury's on Leith Walk, a Tesco superstore on Duke Street and an ASDA at Sandpiper Drive.
The Shore area tempts with a range of bars, bistros, and Michelin-starred restaurants. Ocean Terminal has many high-street stores, restaurants and gym, and multi-screen cinema.
Leith Links and other public parks and The Water of Leith Walkway all provide exercise and recreation and, in addition to the new and extended tram service, there is a frequent and well managed bus service to and from the city.

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

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on June 23, 2023
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
