Property description
An excellent first-time purchase or buy-to-let opportunity, this well-presented, one-bedroom, second-floor flat is set within a Victorian tenement in the popular coastal area of Portobello, in East Edinburgh. The property comprises an entrance hall, spacious living room, internal kitchen, double bedroom, and shower room. In addition, the flat features gas central heating, a mix of single- and double-glazed sash and case windows, a shared external landing with sea views, and unrestricted on-street parking. Portobello lies on the eastern edge of Edinburgh, and is renowned for its sandy beach and promenade. The area has a bustling high street, with a healthy mix of local shops, bars, restaurants, and banks, whilst supermarkets and larger retail parks can also be found nearby, at Brunstane and Kinnaird Park. Many of the bus services to and from the east of the city pass through Portobello High Street, allowing easy access to the city centre, and also to the eastern destinations, mainly in East Lothian. Brunstane Railway Station, just over a mile away, connects to the city centre, and other destinations to the west. The main route to the south, the A1, is also just over a mile away, and links to the city bypass, giving good access to Edinburgh Airport, and the motorway network. There are a number of parks in the local area, one of which contains a public golf course, and other local leisure facilities include the public baths, in a renovated Victorian building, and five-a-side pitches.
