55/7 Blackfriars Street is a wonderful two bedroom flat set over two floors located in the heart of Edinburgh's historic Old Town. This property originally dates from 1980 and offers a superb opportunity for an investor, first time buyer, or as a pied a terre. The flat benefits from beautiful, historic views with exceptional light to both the front and rear throughout the year.

The flat is situated in a well maintained building and enjoys a raised position with both east and west facing aspects. Upon entering, there is a welcoming reception hall, and a large, bright kitchen with contemporary wall and floor mounted units, and ample space for dining for up to six guests.

The further accommodation is found on the floor above, accessed via a sweeping set of stairs. On this level, there is a bright yet cosy living room, two double bedrooms, one with en suite. The hallway also leads to a family bathroom suite and a spacious store room.

Set within the sought after Old Town, and located just off the Royal Mile, the property is only a short walk from Princes Street, Edinburgh Castle & Holyrood Palace.

The property enjoys the most central of locations with Waverley Station within easy reach.

The historic Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage site and boasts a fine array of shops, cafes, restaurants, bars and tourist attractions.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 25, 2022

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

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

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on March 12, 2022

    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

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on December 3, 2016 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
