1 bedroom flat for sale

Presented in move-in condition, this one-bedroom third-floor flat offers bright and spacious rooms with period features and a blank canvas of decor. It forms part of a traditional tenement building, and has a highly desirable location in sought-after Dalry. The city flat is close to excellent amenities and transport links, and it is within easy walking distance of Haymarket train station and Edinburgh's fashionable West End.

The home is accessed via a secure telephone-entry system and a shared stairwell, the front door opening to a central hall that sets the theme of decor found throughout. The hall provides a warm welcome and a built-in cupboard before flowing through to the living room. This reception area offers spacious dimensions for comfortable lounge furniture, benefitting from a neutral backdrop and varnished wooden floorboards. Southeast-facing sash windows bathe the room in natural light, whilst detailed cornice work and an attractive mantelpiece and surround add decoration, alongside a shelved recess for display storage. An open doorway leads through to a study, providing a discreet space for working from home. On the opposite side of the hall, the dining kitchen offers plenty of room for hosting friends and lively dinner parties. It is fitted with wooden worksurfaces and base and wall-mounted cabinets in mix-and-match tones. Metro-style splashbacks frame the integrated gas hob, with an integrated oven also included, along with an undercounter fridge and washing machine. Additional built-in storage completes the space. Meanwhile, the double bedroom has a large footprint for an excellent choice of bedside furnishings. In keeping with the rest of the home, it is decorated in crisp white, yet also adds a snug carpet for maximum comfort. Conveniently next door, the bathroom is finished in neutral decor and with matching tiles. It is equipped with a pedestal washbasin, a toilet, and a bath with an overhead shower. The property has electric storage heaters and traditional sash and case windows.

Externally, there is a communal garden to the rear, which is laid to lawn and with shared drying areas. Controlled permit parking is also available for residents (Zone S4).
