Description

This highly attractive two-bedroom apartment is set within a Category A Listed period building, dating from around 1830 and designed by renowned Edinburgh architect John Tait. The apartment offers light, airy and stylish living space with several original details, including large sash windows, ceiling cornicing and cast-iron column radiators, alongside high-quality modern fittings and clean, neutral décor.

The main reception room is the open-plan kitchen, sitting area and dining area, which extends to 25ft and features three sash windows welcoming plenty of natural light and affording views across the garden square. There is wooden flooring and space for both a seating area and a family dining table, while the kitchen features modern fitted units to base and wall level, offering plenty of storage, as well as a breakfast bar, mirrored back splashes and integrated appliances by Siemens, including an oven, an induction hob and an extractor hood. The room is ideal for entertaining or simply relaxing as a family.

There are two well-presented double bedrooms, both of which benefit from built-in storage and large southeast-facing sash windows and feature neutral décor. The principal bedroom features an en suite shower room, while the apartment also has a main bathroom with an over-bath shower, with both the bathroom and en suite shower room fitted with modern suites.

The building also offers splendid communal areas, including the grand hallway and sweeping staircase, which is beautifully maintained and presented. A skylight is set into the ceiling above the stairwell, bringing plenty of natural light to the space.

The building is situated in a sought-after location on Rutland Square. Private parking is available in the dedicated carpark to the rear of the building, where there is an allocated space for the apartment. Around Rutland Square and along Rutland Street there is a mix of metered and Resident Permit parking.

The residents’ gardens at the heart of the square offer a splendid escape from the hustle and bustle of the city, with its well-kept lawns, winding pathways, benches and mature trees, spring flowers and border hedgerows. There is further splendid green space to enjoy nearby in the famous Princes Street Gardens.

The West End area is one of Edinburgh’s most desirable neighbourhoods, with its historic landmarks and collection of handsome period buildings. Edinburgh holds its status as one of Britain’s most significant historic cities, with its stunning castle and beautiful period architecture. The property is perfectly placed to access all the city’s first-class amenities, leisure and shopping facilities, while both Haymarket and Edinburgh Waverley mainline stations are within easy reach. The city also boasts access to some of the finest schooling Scotland has to offer, with a superb choice of state or independent schools.
