Gillsland Road, Merchiston, Edinburgh, EH10

An impressive three bedroom flat, tastefully presented and forming part of an elegant Victorian conversion in the desirable Merchiston neighbourhood.

Description

This impressive drawing room flat provides stylish and comfortable living within a beautifully converted Victorian townhouse. Converted by AMA in 2000, the property blends elegant period character, such as high ceilings and original windows, with modern finishes throughout. The property is accessed through an entrance shared with just one other, with its own front door opening to a welcoming hallway leading into the accommodation.

The generously sized sitting room, with its dual south and west-facing outlook, serves as the heart of the home. Retaining classic features, the room’s focal point is a fireplace housing a gas fire. Adjacent, and also enjoying a south-facing aspect, is the bright dual-aspect dining kitchen, ideal for entertaining.

Positioned to the rear, the principal bedroom benefits from a west-facing aspect, excellent built-in storage, and a contemporary en suite shower room. The guest bedroom is tastefully presented with fitted wardrobes, while a third bedroom sits nearby. Both are served by a stylish main shower room.

Outside, the property enjoys access to a shared garden with just one neighbouring flat. A gated driveway to the side leads to a private garage fitted with an electric up-and-over door.
