16/1 Valleyfield Street is a two-bedroom first floor flat in a substantial Victorian stone-built tenement located on an attractive street that operates a one-way traffic system and is consequently quiet in the heart of the amenity rich Tollcross district of central Edinburgh and neighbouring the iconic Meadows. It is spacious enough to make an ideal home, or, due to its enviable location, to suit a shrewd investor.

The spacious carpeted hall has two large built-in cupboards and offers direct access to all rooms. The south facing living room has large twin windows and retains an ornate cornice and rose, as well as its fireplace and tiled hearth. There is an adjoining box room that is always a prized addition. The large kitchen, to the back of the flat, can accommodate a dining table if required. It has both floor and wall mounted storage units, work surfaces with tiled splash backs and slot-in appliances. The gas fired central heating boiler is also housed in the kitchen.

There are two comfortable double bedrooms that will fit all the necessary furniture. The bathroom has a basin, bath, and electric shower over the bath. It also has a high-level window that borrows natural light from the kitchen. There is a separate wc that has an additional basin. The flat has traditional sash and case windows, gas fired central heating and there is a communal garden to the rear.

The owners of The King's Theater have recognized the inconvenience that will be caused to their neighbours during its refurbishment and are set to compensate them. Collectively, the flats' owners can then put this towards upgrading communal spaces (including halls, staircase, as well as the garden).
