Situated at the foot of Scotland Street, in Edinburgh’s prestigious, historic New Town area, this sizeable, main door lower ground flat forms part of a traditional Georgian stone building. In recent years the property has fallen into dis-repair and it is now in need of full upgrading throughout. Retaining period features such as fireplaces, cornice work, flagstone floors and cornice work, the property is bursting with potential to create magnificent spaces once finished.

From street level, there are a series of steps leading down to the courtyard and front door. An entrance vestibule leads through to the hall with a flagstone floor.

The generously proportioned sitting room is to the front of the property with a large stone fireplace creating a focal point in the room. To the rear is an equally spacious dining room with further flagstone flooring and French doors to the private garden. A washing pulley is located overhead and there is an Aga in the fireplace. Adjacent to the dining room is the kitchen, with wall and base mounted cabinetry incorporating the kitchen appliances.

Also to the rear is the large principal bedroom with a stone fireplace close to the window, simple yet once elegant cornice and a wood floor. A second bedroom is to the front of the property, which the owner preferred to keep open, again with a fireplace and a wood floor. The shower room can be accessed directly from here, which has two wash hand basins, a WC, bidet and a ‘shower area’. A second bathroom (with bath and wash hand basin) is also located nearby. There is also a very large boxroom which connects from both the sitting room and hall.

Directly accessed from both the dining room and kitchen is a private garden to the rear of the property (with pillars in situ) and a cellar to the front of the property. Residents' permit holder and metered parking is available on the street outside.
