Description

Well presented and exceptionally spacious 3 bedroom first-floor Victorian apartment set in the heart of Newington. Ideally located close to the city centre, The Meadows and excellent local amenities, making it perfect for professionals, families or investors.

This impressive first-floor apartment at 2, 1F1 West Newington Place forms part of a traditional Victorian building and offers an exceptional level of space and natural light throughout. Extending to approximately 115sqm, the property combines generous proportions with an abundance of period charm, creating a highly desirable city home.

The accommodation is wonderfully bright, with large windows on all sides allowing light to flood each room throughout the day.
The living room is a standout feature of the property, offering an elegant and expansive space with striking period detailing and a beautiful original fireplace, creating a warm and inviting focal point.

The kitchen is particularly spacious for a property of this type, fitted with integrated appliances and offering extensive worktop space alongside ample room for a dining table and chairs, making it a highly practical and sociable space for everyday living and entertaining. A rare and remarkable feature is the original Victorian cast iron stove, which, while no longer in working order, remains an impressive architectural statement and a unique reminder of the building’s heritage.

There are two substantial double bedrooms, both comfortably accommodating a range of freestanding furniture, making them ideal for relaxing, sleeping and working spaces. The third bedroom is smaller in scale and offers excellent versatility, suitable as a single bedroom, guest room, home office, or even a walk-in wardrobe, as it is conveniently accessed via one of the main bedrooms.

The bathroom is fitted with a modern walk-in shower, while a separate WC adds further practicality for modern living.

Throughout, the property balances contemporary convenience with original Victorian character, including high ceilings and generous room proportions that enhance the sense of space.

The building has recently undergone a thorough programme of maintenance and repairs, overseen by chartered surveyors. This includes stonework repairs and repointing to the external elevations, a full overhaul of the roof with improvements to slates, leadwork, and drainage, as well as refurbishment of windows, gutters, and shared areas.
These improvements ensure the building is not only well-maintained but also looks great and is durable in the long run, for added peace of mind.

Location:
West Newington Place is ideally located within the ever-popular Newington district, one of Edinburgh’s most desirable and vibrant residential areas. The property is within easy reach of the city centre, the University of Edinburgh and the historic Old Town, making it particularly appealing to professionals, academics and families alike. The area offers a lively yet community-focused atmosphere, with an excellent selection of independent cafés, restaurants, artisan shops and everyday amenities found along nearby Causewayside and Nicolson Street. Larger supermarkets and convenience stores are also close by. Residents are well placed to enjoy some of Edinburgh’s finest green spaces, with The Meadows just a short walk away providing extensive parkland for walking, cycling and recreation. Arthur’s Seat and Holyrood Park are also within easy reach, offering spectacular scenery and panoramic views over the city. Excellent public transport links provide regular access to the city centre and beyond, while the area’s strong walkability ensures key cultural, academic and commercial hubs are all easily accessible. This combination of location, amenities and outdoor space makes Newington one of Edinburgh’s most sought-after residential districts.
