Boasting one of the capital's most desirable addresses, this spectacular (B-listed) one-bedroom, elevated ground-floor apartment is centrally located in Edinburgh’s New Town conservation area, with access to idyllic residents’ gardens and controlled one-street parking. The wonderfully bright and spacious interiors promise period splendour, with exquisite Victorian features effortlessly accompanied by luxury contemporary finishings.   

Enjoying all the grandeur expected of a New Town residence, this generous one-bedroom apartment showcases a perfect balance of classic and contemporary styling. Set within a B-Listed sandstone townhouse, with an enviable corner position, the apartment is on the ground floor in an elevated position, which ensures no overlooking issues from the street - a big advantage in the city centre. Furthermore, the residence boasts impressive high-ceilinged rooms that are bathed in natural light, retaining a stunning array of authentic features bought up-to-date with inspiring décor and high-end fittings. Close to the property, the Victorian Learmonth Terrace Gardens provide a private haven for residents, and controlled on-street parking falls under Zone 5.

A highly desirable New Town home – brimming with period character and elegance

The apartment is entered securely via an opulent communal vestibule with fine decorative features. Once inside the apartment, equally inviting is its private entrance hall: an exceptionally bright space with stained glass features paired beautifully with contemporary nature-scape wallpaper. Here, handsome parquet flooring leads to a section laid with expensive, luxurious carpeting - a practical and inviting combination. 

A superbly bright and spacious reception room - openly adjoined by a stylish kitchen

The hall flows through to the centrepiece of the home, a magnificent parquet-floored reception room filled with light from vast dual-aspect sash windows. This convivial living space easily accommodates comfortable seating and dining furniture, with wide sliding doors to the kitchen allowing social open access when desired. Crisp white and teal blue décor is ornamented by a central rose, wall panelling, and a dentil cornice, whilst an imposing marble fireplace with a living flame fire brings a homely warmth to the room. The adjoining kitchen promises a stylish contrast to the classical living space, appointed in a complementary blend of monochrome and natural tones with sleek cabinetry featuring built-in lighting, durable quartz countertops, white subway tiling, and a parquet wood floor. A freestanding upright fridge/freezer in coordinating black is included, along with a dishwasher, a washing machine, an induction hob with a statement hood, and an oven – all integrated to create a flawless look. 

Luxurious sleeping quarters – accompanied by a chic shower room

The home’s remarkably spacious double bedroom is decorated in tranquil earthy hues, with soft deep-pile carpeting. Enchanting decorative details, such as intricate cornicing, bring heritage character to this luxurious sleeping area. In addition, the room has the luxury of a large walk-in wardrobe, complete with built-in clothing racks and rails and private loft storage  set above. Finally, completing the home is a chicly tiled contemporary shower room replete with a hidden cistern WC, a basin and vanity unit, and an enclosure with a deluxe rainfall shower.

Picturesque outdoor space – close by in private residents’ gardens

An idyllic space for outdoor relaxation and recreation lies a stone’s throw from the apartment, within private gardens whose maintenance is covered by an annual residents' fee, already paid for this year. Offering two acres of wooded parkland, Learmonth Terrace Gardens is a rich wildlife habitat and a tranquil retreat from the bustle of the city. On-street parking on Learmonth Terrace falls under Zone 5. 

Extras: Included in the sale are all fitted floor coverings, black-out blinds, light fittings, and integrated/freestanding appliances. In addition, all furniture is also available for sale subject to separate negotiation.
