4 bedroom flat for sale

Lying in Edinburgh’s prestigious West End close to restaurants, bars, boutiques, transport links, and the city centre, this is an exceptional and rarely available three to four-bedroom B-listed apartment built by Watherston and Sons in 1906. Presented in truly immaculate condition and offering excellent proportions, an abundance of natural light, fine period details and high quality finishes it is the epitome of stylish city living.

A wonderful first impression is made upon entering the grand shared hallway, where chic monochrome floor tiling and an original working lift set a refined historic tone. The first floor apartment itself opens into a beautifully presented hallway featuring parquet flooring, high ceilings, intricate cornicing, and elegant wall panelling. From here, French doors lead into a bright and generously proportioned west-facing family and dining room. Continuing the hallway’s parquet flooring and panelling, this impressive space is further enhanced by exquisite cornicing and striking ceiling heights. A living-flame fireplace, set within a marble insert and framed by a classic white mantlepiece, provides a stunning focal point. Returning to the hallway, a warm and inviting bay-windowed living room awaits (possible fourth bedroom). With its generous proportions, soft colour palette, and original open fireplace set within an ornate white mantelpiece, it offers a sophisticated yet comfortable south east-facing retreat. Beyond this lies an impressive south-east-facing bay windowed breakfasting kitchen. Thoughtfully designed in a tasteful contemporary style, the kitchen features oak-effect wall and base cabinetry complemented by illuminated quartz effect worktops, a tiled splashback, and high-spec integrated BOSCH appliances, including an eye-level grill and oven, gas hob, and extractor hood. East-facing, the principal bay-windowed double bedroom entered via a separate small hallway is breathtaking with its spectacular feature fireplace, parquet flooring, serene colour palette and high ceilings. Flooded with natural light and with a sizeable footprint and access to a well-appointed shower room it is a luxurious retreat. The remaining two double bedrooms are equally impressive, and benefit from a west and south- east-facing orientation respectively. They share access to a bright family bathroom complete with a freestanding roll-top bath. Externally residents have access to a private parking space, a rarity in such a central location. A basement cellar offers practical storage.
