Scotland Street, New Town, Edinburgh, EH3

Delightful 1-bedroom unfurnished property with boxroom in the heart of Edinburgh’s New Town, available now.

The main door, lower ground property has excellent proportions, the living room is bright with good quality carpet and working shutters, as well as a useful box room that could be used as a home office, a study, or a nursery. The dining kitchen has a rustic finish and is fitted with farmhouse-style cabinetry and a generous workspace with space for a round family dining table. A south-facing window brightens the kitchen, which also includes an integrated electric hob and oven and extractor fan, as well as an integrated fridge with a freezer compartment. The utility cupboard, which is housed in the middle of the hallway, neatly stores a washing machine and a condenser dryer. The master bedroom is a good-sized double bedroom, which looks out onto the front garden area. A traditional sash window with working wooden shutters illuminates the room and incorporates a neat storage space underneath for folded clothes or display items, as well as wall-to-wall built-in wardrobes. The bathroom is furnished with a three-piece suite with a shower over the bath. The bedroom and lounge both have traditional-style sash and case windows.

The property benefits from wall-mounted electric heaters to ensure year-round comfort. In addition to the potting garden, the property also has access to the nearby private Drummond Gardens.

Located within Edinburgh's world-famous New Town, it’s easy to forget that this property is in the heart of the city.

The New Town is in the centre of the city and is the home of some of Edinburgh's top retail and leisure attractions. Within a 5-minute walk of the property, there is Cannonmills (with its cosy pubs, a large Tesco and an M&S), within an additional 5-minute walk is Broughton Street (with its trendy bars, pharmacy and independent restaurants) and just another 5 minutes further to Stockbridge (with its coffee shops, bakeries and boutiques). The property is also under a 20-minute walk from the St James Quarter, George Street and Princes Street, which have some of the best retail and leisure opportunities in the city. For those who want to escape the city for an hour or two, some of the best green areas in the city are nearby. King George V Park (with its trees and open spaces) is directly across the road, while The Royal Botanic Garden (with its impressive flora and regular outdoor events) and The Water of Leith (with its scenic riverside walkway) are only 10 minutes away on foot.

For the motorist, Scotland Street is ideal. There are permit holder spaces available right outside the property on the street, with pay and display options for visitors. Only a short drive from the A1 (which has quick links out to the city bypass and motorway network). For those commuting by bike or foot, there is a link to the North Edinburgh Cycle Network at King George V Park, joining up Stockbridge, the New Town and Leith with traffic-free routes. Meanwhile, trams to the airport or Leith can be taken from Picardy Place - only 12 minutes' walk away - and buses to the rest of the city can be boarded at Bellevue - under 5 minutes’ walk away.
