Location

Clarendon Crescent is one of the West End’s most sought-after addresses.

Designed by the celebrated architect John Tait in the mid-19th century, the crescent is renowned for its classical façades, generous proportions and outlook over beautifully maintained communal gardens.

This peaceful residential enclave feels wonderfully secluded, yet it sits just moments from the heart of the city. The West End’s independent boutiques, cafés and restaurants cluster around nearby William Street and Stafford Street, while the larger retail and cultural offerings of George Street and Princes Street are only a 1 mile walk away.

For green space, residents enjoy access to the private Dean Gardens and the Water of Leith walkway, both perfect for scenic walks and a sense of escape within the city. The nearby Dean Village and the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art offer further cultural and architectural interest.

The area is also highly convenient for transport, with Haymarket Station providing excellent rail and tram connections across Edinburgh and to the airport. There are several well-regarded schools within easy reach, including the Edinburgh Academy, Fettes College, and St George’s School for Girls.

Combining historic charm, architectural beauty and exceptional convenience, Clarendon Crescent represents one of the finest residential locations in Edinburgh’s West End.
