Cumberland Street, Stockbridge, Edinburgh

38 (1F2) Cumberland Street is a generously proportioned and characterful first floor apartment, forming part of an elegant mid-terraced Georgian building in the heart of Edinburgh’s New Town.

Accessed via a common entrance stair with an impressive fanlight doorway, the apartment is entered through a welcoming hallway of fine proportions. The hallway gives access to all principal rooms and fitted built-in cupboards provide generous storage.

The sitting room to the front of the property is a particularly impressive room, featuring a period marble fireplace, cornicing and two large sash windows which flood the room with natural light. The height of the ceilings and the quality of the original detailing make this a room of real distinction.

New double-glazed windows were fitted throughout the property in April 2026.

A separate utility room with Indesit washing machine is accessed from the kitchen, and there is a WC conveniently located off the main hall.

The principal bedroom is to the front of the property and benefits from a built-in shelved alcove.

The second double bedroom is also a well-proportioned room located to the rear.

Bedroom 3 / Study provides flexible accommodation equally suited to use as a single bedroom or a home office.
