Open viewing on Sunday 8th February between 11am-1pm

Forming part of a historic Category B listed building on the Royal Mile, this spacious third floor flat offers a rare opportunity to create a beautifully modernised home in the heart of Edinburgh’s Old Town.

Extending to approximately 73 square metres, the property comprises a welcoming entrance hall, a generous living room with kitchen off, two double bedrooms, and a shower room with WC.

The flat benefits from mostly modern double glazed sash and case windows, and its elevated position provides a sense of privacy along with attractive outlooks across the Royal Mile’s historic streetscape. A gas fired central heating system serves the property.

A full refurbishment is required, giving buyers complete freedom to redesign the interior, upgrade fittings, and realise the flat’s full potential.

The building includes a communal stair, and the flat sits above commercial premises that form part of the wider tenement.


With its generous proportions, appealing natural light, and exceptional setting, the flat presents an excellent opportunity for those seeking a characterful home to renovate and tailor to their own requirements.
