Well-presented, one-bedroom, dual-aspect flat on the ground floor of an elegant Victorian stone-built tenement in Edinburgh's popular Shandon area, south-west of Edinburgh City centre. The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, living room, kitchen with dining area, double bedroom and boxroom. The L-shaped entrance hallway serves all rooms and features natural wood flooring, cupboard storage and cornicework. The bright living room features a fine triple-bay window with panelled wood surrounds, sanded and varnished floorboards, a traditional fireplace with tiled, cast-iron inset and hearth, and an ornate cornice and rose. The rear-facing kitchen features contemporary units with breakfast bar, tiled splashbacks and a stainless steel sink. Appliances include an integrated gas hob and oven, freestanding fridge freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. The carpeted front-facing double bedroom offers ample freestanding furniture space and features a plaster cornice, and opens to a sizeable boxroom. The bathroom is fitted with a white three piece-suite with electric shower, tiled flooring and splashbacks and chrome heated towel rail. The property benefits from a mix of traditional sash and case windows and modern double glazing, gas central heating, good cupboard storage, secure entry system, and TV and telephone points. To the rear, accessed via the well-kept common stair, is a well-maintained, shared garden, and there is ample, unrestricted on-street parking to the front. Shandon is served by several local shops, with a choice of supermarkets nearby, including Sainsbury's at Gorgie, and Asda at Chesser. The property looks on to the expansive Harrison Park, and the Union canal, offering walking and cycle links to the city centre. Also to hand are the delightful Colinton Dell, Water of Leith, and recreational facilities including Nuffield Health Club, Craiglockhart Sports Centre, and the Corn Exchange. An efficient public transport network serves most parts of the city and surrounding areas, including Edinburgh Airport.
