Flooded with natural light, this superbly spacious and well presented first floor flat forms part of a traditional Georgian building. Finished to a high standard and superbly situated within sight of the fashionable new St James Quarter, the Omni Centre and a tram stop just outside. Early viewing of this fantastic flat is highly recommended.

Entered by way of an impressive, wide communal entrance with polished concrete walls, the flat is situated on the first floor. The front door opens on to a well-proportioned hall. There is a beautiful open plan living / dining / kitchen with engaging wood floors and two large windows offering views the rear of the property, from which the Firth of Forth can be seen on a clear day. Gorgeous wall and base mounted cabinetry is fitted to the rear of the room and incorporates an electric hob, extractor fan, electric oven, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. There is plenty of space for a dining table and chairs, in addition to a comfortable, contemporary lounge area.

The large, bright, double fronted master bedroom enjoys south facing views directly onto Picardy Place with ornate cornice work and fitted carpet. The room is currently used as a second sitting room. There is a stylish en-suite shower room with rainfall shower, WC and wash hand basin. There are two further sizeable double bedrooms, both with plenty of space, in addition to a modern bathroom with bath (and shower over), WC and wash hand basin, finished in matching colours to the en-suite.

Permit holder parking is available on the street outside.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 7, 2022

    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
