Located at the eastern end of Dalkeith Road, this bright and spacious two bedroom first-floor flat forms part of a late Victorian red sandstone tenement in the vibrant Newington neighbourhood of Edinburgh's Southside.
The front door opens into a welcoming hall that provides direct access to all rooms, with a useful built in store cupboard in one corner. To the front, the bay windowed living room overlooks Dalkeith Road and offers generous space for both sitting and dining areas. Period features include a stained and polished timber floor, a traditional fireplace with wooden mantelpiece, a full height press, and original ceiling cornice. Positioned to the rear, the naturally lit kitchen overlooks the well-kept communal drying green and is fitted with both wall and base units, downlit work surfaces with tiled splash backs, and a mixture of integrated and freestanding appliances.
There are two well proportioned double bedrooms, each offering ample space for a full complement of freestanding furniture. The second bedroom benefits from a large-built cupboard, an additional smaller store, and a distinctive high level internal window that provides natural light to the box room next door and accessed from the hall. A naturally lit, partially tiled bathroom with a three piece suite and shower over bath completes the accommodation. The property is double glazed throughout and warmed by gas fired central heating.
