Description

Spacious three-bed HMO property located in one of Edinburgh's most sought-after locations. A stone's throw from the University of Edinburgh, this property is ideal for students or professionals. Ample storage is available throughout with stunnign viewers onto the Meadows. Available Thursday, 28th May 2026!

The property consists of a wide hallway leading to all rooms. There are three spacious double bedrooms. All are bright and airy with ornate cornicing, decorative fireplaces and traditional high ceilings. There is a good-sized kitchen-dining room with plenty of cupboard space and all the essential appliances, including an electric hob, a cooker (with integrated hood), a fridge, a freezer, a washing machine, a microwave, a toaster and a kettle. There is also a bathroom with an electric shower over bath and two additional box rooms that would be ideal for use as home offices or storage.

The property further benefits from gas central heating and double-glazed windows throughout.

Located in the beating heart of Edinburgh's Old Town, this property is perfectly suited for city life. Forrest Road itself is home to numerous pubs, diverse restaurants, cafes, coffee houses and independent shops, with many more amenities within a short walk. The nearest Sainsbury's Local supermarket is only a few minutes' walk, and there is a Tesco Express only a few minutes further away. There is also a gym, pharmacy and post office within a few minutes from the tenement door. The famous Royal Mile, bustling Grassmarket and picturesque Meadows (one of the best parks in the city) are also only around 5 minutes away on foot.

The property is also across the street from the George Square Campus for the University of Edinburgh and a short walk from the Lauriston Campus. The property also has great access to bus services to the rest of the city, and Edinburgh's primary train station, Waverley, is around 10 minutes' walk away.

The property holds an HMO licence that is valid for 3 adults sharing. Given its ideal central location, this property would suit students and professionals alike.
