*£65,000 below Home Report value* Two bedroom first floor apartment, totalling over 1,400 sq. ft. in the heart of Edinburgh's iconic New Town
Description
56 (1F2) Thistle Street is an attractive and contemporary two bedroom first floor apartment. The property is in an ideal position; it is in the heart of Edinburgh's city centre, with some of the best restaurants, bars and retail shops it has to offer just moments away.
Formerly the headquarters of Lyon and Turnbull, this property was converted by well renowned Edinburgh developers Sundial in 2001. The property is accessed via secure entry phone to a well kept communal hallway shared with four other apartments.
A large open plan kitchen/living room is located to the front, with two windows looking over Thistle Street. The modern kitchen has a kitchen island and fitted appliances including a Siemens 5 ring gas hob and Siemens oven. Solid wood flooring runs throughout the apartment.
The sizeable principal bedroom is to the rear, which benefits from an en suite shower room and excellent integrated storage. A further benefit is access to a former walkway, which offers a great space to be used as a dressing room or study. Bedroom two is also to the rear of the apartment with integrated storage and ample space for furniture. A family bathroom is accessed via the hallway.
Permit parking is available on street (subject to an annual fee).
Location
Thistle Street is nestled away from the busy thoroughfares, off a quiet cobbled street, yet is only a few yards away from the retail and commercial centre in George Street and Princes Street.
The property enjoys all the benefits of city centre living with a wide variety of shops, bistros and restaurants on the surrounding streets as well as in the West End and Stockbridge which are both nearby. The new St James Quarter, St Andrews Square and Edinburgh’s Financial District are all on the doorstep.
Waverley and Haymarket train stations are also easily accessible, as is the Tram which connects to Edinburgh International Airport. The open spaces of the Royal Botanic Garden, Inverleith Park and the Water of Leith are all within short walking distance while access to private residents’ gardens at Queen Street Gardens can be gained on subscription.
There is a wide range of schools within easy reach on the north side of the city both in the state and private sectors, including The Edinburgh Academy, Erskine Stewart’s Melville Schools, Fettes College, St George’s School for Girls, George Heriots and George Watsons. The University of Edinburgh is also within easy reach.
Belford Sports Club is nearby as are a number of Edinburgh's art galleries. There is convenient access westwards to Corstorphine, Edinburgh Park, the city bypass and Edinburgh Airport.
