Once a major industrial hub driven by a busy port, Granton, like much of Edinburgh’s shoreline, has seen significant redevelopment in recent years. The area is fast becoming one of the most sought-after postcodes in the capital owing to luxurious residential developments and stunning views of the Firth of Forth, and the property lies just over three miles from the city centre, reachable in under 15 minutes by bus or car. Although much of old Granton has now disappeared, its quaint harbour and listed industrial landmarks are charming reminders of its rich and vibrant heritage. Granton is served by a superb range of local services and amenities including a large Morrisons supermarket and petrol station (under a 10-minute walk or two-minute drive), a 24-hour ASDA in neighbouring Newhaven and Ocean Terminal shopping centre (10-minute drive), which is home to an array of high-street stores, a multi-screen cinema and a selection of family restaurants. The area boasts several cultural and entertainment venues, with some fantastic venues already established and some due to open soon, including Pitt Street market, Wasps Artists’ Studios, and Granton Gasometer, making the area a fabulous cultural hub. With a wide variety of leisure activities right on its doorstep. 'The Art Works' by National Galleries is scheduled to commence works and is due to showcase more than 130,000 pieces of artwork. The Granton Lighthouse Art hub is also schedule to commence works soon. Granton has something for everyone: from tranquil strolls along the waterfront promenade towards Wardie Beach and picturesque Cramond to exhilarating sailing and water sports at the marina.

The property is within the catchment area for Granton Primary School, Broughton High School, St David’s RC primary School, and St Augustine’s RC High School, and is well placed for some of the finest independent schools in the country.
