Description
A rare opportunity to rent a unique, delightful two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in the highly sought-after Blackford Hill area. Blending peaceful, private living with exceptional city connectivity, this characterful home features artistic decor, superb outdoor spaces, and a dedicated workspace.
Key Features:
* Standalone Garden Office/Studio: A standout feature of the property is the standalone garden office (currently used as an artist's studio). It is fully insulated, equipped with power/lighting, and internet-ready. The property currently achieves 150mbps via a Sky booster hub. Crucially, the line is fully upgradeable to Sky Gigafast broadband (900mbps download speeds). Incoming tenants have the exclusive option to take over our existing Sky account to secure this ultra-high-speed Gigafast connection for an incredibly low rate of just £23 per month, locked-in for two years. Alternatively, tenants are welcome to set up their own provider (utilities are not included in the rent).
* Private Outdoor Oasis: A beautiful, terraced rear garden with a patio area. Includes a dedicated lockable garden shed providing secure bike storage.
* Private Parking: Dedicated off-street parking space (highly valuable for South Edinburgh).
* Prime Location: Situated in the prestigious James Gillespie’s catchment area. A short walk to major bus routes serving the entire city and a 10-minute walk to Cameron Toll Shopping Centre. Wonderful woodland walks at Blackford Hill and the Hermitage of the Braid are right on your doorstep.
Interior & Furnishing:
The house features a warm, cozy aesthetic with artistic touches. It includes a highly functional kitchen with modern white IKEA units, a large gas hob, and a double electric oven, dishwasher, new washing machine and microwave. The property comes furnished/part-furnished. Personal artwork and effects will be removed prior to move-in. The main bedrooms will be updated with stylish, metal-framed Victorian-style double beds. We are open to minor adjustments based on a tenant's specific furniture requirements (e.g., accommodating a child).
Ideal Occupants:
This home is perfectly suited for professionals, university academics, or mature/post-graduate students seeking a peaceful sanctuary. Please note: This property does NOT hold an HMO license. Maximum occupancy is restricted to a single family unit, a couple, or two individual professional sharers.
