The New Town is one of Edinburgh’s most sought-after residential areas. Located in the city centre, it is characterised by beautiful Georgian terraces, stunning wide streets and well-kept communal gardens, with excellent shopping just a two-minute walk away.
Residents of Howe Street can apply for access to Queen Street Gardens upon payment of a small annual fee.
Howe Street falls within the catchment for Stockbridge Primary School or St Mary’s RC Primary School, and Broughton High School or St Thomas of Aquin’s RC High School.
Other excellent independent schools nearby include Fettes College, Edinburgh Academy, ESMS and St George’s School for Girls.
