Beautifully presented and generously proportioned ground and garden flat with up to five bedrooms, in a much sought after location
Description
7gf Buckingham Terrace is a well proportioned, bright and spacious ground and garden flat set in an enviable and much sought after location. The property forms the lower two levels of an impressive Victorian townhouse and with both east and west facing aspects there is an abundance of natural light throughout the day. The property benefits from elegant proportions and retains much of its original charm with a range of delightful period features, including the delicate cornicing and plasterwork and working shutters. The property has been successfully upgraded in recent years and is beautifully presented, having been finished to a high specification. There have also been extensive renovations to the building which were completed in November 2023, including a new roof, rebuilding a chimney stack as well as significant other works to the fabric of the building. With superb reception space over both floors and up to five bedrooms, this property is perfect for family life.
The front door opens to an internal hall, which in turn opens to the spectacular bay-windowed sitting room with wonderful cornicing as well as a charming white marble mantelpiece. Of particular note is the beautifully appointed dining kitchen with a large pantry and double doors opening to the west facing balcony, overlooking the garden to the rear. Adjacent to this is a guest WC as well as a single bedroom, currently utilised as a study. The original stone stair leads down to the garden level where there are three double bedrooms, a nursery and the informal sitting room, which could be used as a large double bedroom. This is a particularly comfortable room and has double doors leading out to the stone patio at the rear of the property. The principal bedroom is situated to the front and has a bay-window as well as a luxurious en suite shower room. Bedroom three also benefits from an en suite shower room, while the other two bedrooms are served by the family bath and shower room. Finally at the garden level there is a well-proportioned utility room with pulley airer and plenty of storage.
The property is accessed via a shared entrance at ground floor and has its own private entrance on the lower ground floor accessed via steps leading to the basement area. Here there are three useful under pavement cellars, one of which is dry lined and provides excellent storage. To the rear of the property there is a delightful west facing walled garden which has been well maintained. The garden has been terraced, with colourful and well-stocked herbaceous borders with a lawn towards the rear of the garden.
In addition, proprietors can enjoy the use of Buckingham Terrace gardens in front of the property, for which there is a modest annual payment of around £110.
Location
Buckingham Terrace is an imposing Victorian Terrace in the West End, designed by the well known architect John Chesser and built from 1860.
It is situated on the edge of the New Town within a few hundred metres of Princes Street and George Street as well as all amenities at the heart of the city.

For a small annual fee keys can be obtained for the extensive Dean Gardens which border the Water of Leith walkway. In addition, proprietors may also apply for a key for the splendid Belgrave Crescent Gardens. However, there may be a waiting list for these currently.
Square Footage: 2,228 sq ft
Additional Info
