Bellevue Road, Edinburgh, EH7

Located on the top floor of a handsome Victorian tenement, this beautiful two-bedroom apartment is defined by light, proportion and a thoughtful renovation that has honoured the building's original character while introducing a calm, contemporary palette. Every element has been carefully considered and meticulously brought back to life.

Its elevated position brings an abundance of natural light, with open views stretching across the rooftops to Calton Hill and Arthur’s Seat. Framed by large windows, the outlook shifts with the seasons and gives the apartment a welcome sense of openness, unusual for such a central setting.

The principal living space has been opened to create a generous room for cooking, dining and relaxation. The kitchen sits comfortably within the space, finished with solid Iroko block worktops whose rich grain provides warmth against a restrained material palette. Original stripped floorboards run throughout, complimenting the interior design and providing both practical and stylish appeal. 

The two bedrooms are both generous doubles, the principle has an ample built in wardrobe and an adjoing space ideal as a dressing room or study. Like the rest of the apartment, they are simple, well-proportioned spaces where natural light takes centre stage. Practicality has been woven discreetly into the design, with excellent storage throughout and a separate utility cupboard that keeps the everyday out of sight.

The building is well maintained throughout and there is shared use of the garden to the rear which is equally pristine.   

Bellevue sits in the quiet space between Edinburgh's Georgian New Town and the creative energy of Leith. It has become one of the city's most compelling neighbourhoods; close enough to walk almost everywhere, yet removed from the pace of the city centre.

Broughton Street is only a few minutes away, its independent cafés, neighbourhood restaurants and specialist food shops lending the area an unmistakably local feel. Canonmills, St James Quarter and Leith Walk are equally close, offering everything from everyday essentials to some of Edinburgh's most celebrated places to eat and drink.
