The welcoming central hallway gives access to all rooms and creates an excellent sense of flow throughout the home. An impressive sitting room is a standout space with large windows drawing in natural light and ample room for a range of furniture. The spacious dining kitchen is another key feature of the property, offering extensive worktop space, striking cabinetry, open shelving and plenty of room for dining and cooking. The well-proportioned double bedroom provides excellent floor space complemented by a stylish bathroom fitted with a white suite and shower over bath. A particularly valuable addition is the separate study situated off of the living area, offering flexible use as a home office or additional storage space.

Additionally, there is gas central heating and on-street permit parking can be found directly outside the property and on surrounding streets under permit parking zone S4.

Ritchie Place is a residential street located within the highly regarded Polwarth district of Edinburgh, an established and sought-after area known for its attractive period architecture, excellent local amenities and convenient access to the city centre. Positioned just southwest of the centre, Polwarth offers a strong sense of community while remaining exceptionally well connected. Residents enjoy an excellent selection of independent cafés, restaurants, local shops and supermarkets nearby, with the neighbouring areas of Bruntsfield, Merchiston and Fountainbridge providing an even wider choice of leisure and lifestyle amenities. The picturesque Union Canal is also within easy reach, offering pleasant walking and cycling routes. The area is particularly popular with professionals and first-time buyers thanks to its combination of traditional Edinburgh character, green spaces and excellent transport links, with regular bus services and straightforward access into the city centre and beyond.
