Property description & features

Tenure: Freehold
Traditional top floor flat
Requires some improvements/repairs
Living room with kitchen off
Double bedroom and shower room
Gas central heating
Mutual garden
Beside quiet Colonies setting and close to easter Road
EPC E

This top floor flat (40 sqm) would be a perfect ‘first step’ on Edinburgh’s property ladder and is equally suitable as a convenient Pied a Terre or investment opportunity. The building is quietly located at a slightly lower level than London Street and right beside the peaceful Abbeyhill Colonies. It is a classic previously refurbished stone tenement (comprising 16 flats) thought to date back to 1890. Flat 15 has character but would greatly benefit from cosmetic improvements including a repair to one ceiling (which occured 5 years ago prior to a major roof repair). Original features including stripped floors, sash-and-casement windows, cornicing and panelled doors have been retained. There is a classic living/dining room having an original fireplace and an access doorway into the internal fitted kitchen featuring gas hob and hood. The bedroom is a double and there is also a shower room with white fittings. Gas central heating is installed.

There is an enclosed communal garden to the rear of the building.

Lying parallel to London Road, Salmond Place adjoins Abbeyhill Colonies which has charming gardens and a distinctive linear street pattern. Although a predominantly urban area surrounded by shops, pubs, cafes and restaurants, it is surprisingly quiet. The very modern Meadowbank sports stadium and Holyrood Park are both around 0.5 mile away. A very wide choice of buses provide easy access across the City and even down to East Lothian.

The oven, gas hob, washing machine, fridge/freezer are included in the sale price.

Valuation

It has been valued for mortgage purposes at £150,000 and the Home Report is available via the ESPC web site.

Council Tax and EPC

The property lies in Council Tax Band A and has an E rated Energy Performance Certificate.

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 14, 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

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
