Description:
Hidden away in a peaceful and private courtyard setting just off the vibrant West Port, this charming two-bedroom property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy city centre living with a quiet and tucked-away feel. Accessed through an archway and nestled within a beautiful courtyard, the property enjoys a calm atmosphere that feels far removed from the bustle of the city while still being right in the heart of Edinburgh.

Internally, the accommodation is well laid out for practical living. The welcoming hallway provides access to all rooms within the property. The bright lounge offers an excellent main living space with room for both relaxing and dining, while the separate kitchen is well proportioned with good storage and worktop space. There are two bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom and a second room ideal as a guest bedroom, home office or study. The bathroom is centrally located and completes the accommodation. The property’s layout makes excellent use of the available space and would suit a range of tenants looking for a central yet peaceful Edinburgh home.

Location:
Aitchisons Close is ideally positioned in Edinburgh’s historic Old Town, just moments from the Grassmarket, the University of Edinburgh and the city centre. Despite its incredibly central location, the property enjoys a wonderfully quiet setting tucked away from the main street within a secluded courtyard. Residents can enjoy an excellent selection of nearby cafes, restaurants, bars and independent shops, along with easy access to cultural attractions including Edinburgh Castle, The Meadows and Princes Street. Excellent public transport links are available nearby, and Waverley Station is within easy walking distance, making this an ideal base for professionals, students or anyone seeking convenient city living in a peaceful hidden-away setting.
