Description

Enjoying stunning views of Edinburgh’s iconic Calton Hill, this three-bedroom, second-floor flat is part of a Category B listed building within the New Town Conservation Area, built in
the 1820s from the designs of prominent Georgian architect William Playfair as part of the prestigious Calton Scheme. Just a short distance from Waverley Station, the east end of Princes Street and the tram network, this exceptionally charming flat is in prime position for all the city has to offer, including local green spaces and a plethora of cultural and culinary options.

The flat is accessed via secure communal stairs. Once inside, it is immediately apparent that the generous interiors (totalling almost 110 square metres) retain their traditional character, including tall sash windows and ornate cornicework, and have been thoughtfully upgraded with beautifully eclectic styling. The entrance hall opens up into a welcoming and versatile space - currently set up as a dining area – which leads to all other rooms. The living room has an attached box room/ideal study and is brightly lit by two large sash windows, showcasing a focal fireplace and ceiling rose, while the kitchen comes equipped with base and wall units, as well as freestanding appliances including a fridge-freezer and gas cooker and space/plumbing for a washing machine. 

The principal bedroom is south-facing with scenic views, has built-in storage and also features a stunning period fireplace, whilst the other two double bedrooms are located at the rear of the property, away from the bustle of the street. The stylish shower room is fully tiled and naturally lit by a south-facing window and features storage for toiletries. Finally, the property
is served by gas central heating.

Outside, Montgomery Street is within minutes’ walk of a tram stop and several major bus routes, connecting to the city centre and airport. Also close by are several open green spaces including Montgomery Street Park, London Road Gardens and Calton Hill. On-street parking is regulated under Zone N1.
 
Extras: The sale includes all fitted floor and window coverings (excluding curtains), light fittings (excluding chandelier), and kitchen appliances.
