Generously sized Georgian apartment on Leopold Place, close the city centre and directly opposite Calton Hill.


Description

This spacious and well positioned, third floor Georgian apartment is ideally situated close to the city centre and enjoys a pleasant, leafy outlook both north and south.

Well presented and accessed via the communal entrance hall, the property enters into a spacious hallway from which all rooms are subsequently accessed. Straight ahead is the kitchen, double bedroom three and the sitting room. To the right is the principle bedroom with ensuite shower room (with underfloor heating), while to the left is bedroom two. A modern shower room, complete with underfloor heating, sits just inside to the right and there are also three useful utility cupboards.

The well-appointed kitchen, with two south facing windows houses multiple wall and base units, accented by floor level lighting. There is an integrated induction hob and oven, and useful storage space can be found in the two large cupboards. It is worth noting that the digitally controlled Worcester boiler is newly installed and has a ten year warranty.

The sitting room is particularly spacious and boasts a wonderful woodfired stove within the original hearth. The timber flooring accents the beam above the fire place and the original shutters are in good working order.

Timber flooring and original working shutters can also be found in the principle bedroom that is serviced by a modern ensuite, with walk in shower, and a built in wardrobe and underfloor heating. The second bedroom with two large cupboards, also benefits from a skylight that draws in plenty of daylight and third bedroom provides an flexible space which would work equally well as a study.

The property is HMO compliant and was successfully used as a lucrative four bedroom rental.

Residents parking is available on application and access to Regent Gardens can be granted for a nominal fee.
