Location:
Leith is one of Edinburgh’s most dynamic and sought-after districts, renowned for its vibrant atmosphere, rich history, and thriving local community. Located just north of the city centre, it blends a unique mix of heritage architecture, contemporary developments, and a bustling waterfront scene.
At the heart of Leith is The Shore, a lively area lined with award-winning restaurants, trendy cafés, traditional pubs, and artisan shops. The district also offers excellent cultural attractions, including the Royal Yacht Britannia at nearby Ocean Terminal and various galleries and creative spaces that showcase Leith’s artistic spirit.
Leith is exceptionally well-connected, with regular bus services and the Edinburgh Tram extension now providing direct links to the city centre and airport. The area is also popular with professionals due to its proximity to tech hubs, creative industries, and financial districts.
Green spaces such as Leith Links and the Water of Leith Walkway provide peaceful outdoor escapes, while a growing number of independent retailers, delis, and local markets contribute to Leith’s strong sense of community and charm.
With its distinctive character, excellent amenities, and ongoing regeneration, Leith continues to be one of the most desirable places to live in Edinburgh.
