4 bedroom flat for sale

This exceptional penthouse apartment has the scale of a New Town townhouse but on one level. Taking up the entire roof level of the original Douglas House building, it offers almost 320 square metres (3,443 square feet) of floor space with magnificent views over the Dean Village.

There is lift access from the foyer and car park directly into the apartment, arriving in the spacious hallway. To the right, double doors open onto the open-plan living room – a spectacular 13.7 x 12.3 metre space. Windows to the north, west and south give views over the Water of Leith and Dean Village, as well as towards Palmerston Place and the West End. These windows open fully to connect with the views, while large, carefully positioned skylights ensure the space is flooded with light.

The kitchen area features a mix of stylish units and a range of fitted appliances, including a full height wine fridge and built in coffee maker. A large return in the worktop doubles as a breakfast bar and separates the kitchen from the formal dining area. A door off the kitchen leads into the separate utility room. Outwith the kitchen and an area zoned for the TV/home cinema, the space is very much left for the purchaser to adapt to their requirements.

The long hallway gives access to the four double bedrooms and the family shower room. The principal bedroom is a superb suite utilising the full width of the building. The main bedroom has a large, north-facing window, with views over the Dean Village, a wall of fitted wardrobes and an additional dressing area with further wardrobes. The luxurious, en-suite bathroom has a large, walk-in shower and a freestanding bath sitting beneath an original circular window. The second bedroom also has an en-suite bathroom with a separate walk-in shower and a feature north-facing window. The two remaining double bedrooms are separated by the family shower room and each have fitted wardrobes and south facing windows.

The lift gives access to the car park, where the apartment has a single parking space with infrastructure to allow for optional installation of an electric vehicle charger.
