Property description
**CLOSING DATE SET THURSDAY 31ST MARCH @ 12 NOON** This is a spacious, two-bedroom, ground-floor flat, enjoying an abundance of charm and character, with a private front garden and shared rear garden, set in a Victorian tenement in prestigious Marchmont, south of Edinburgh city centre. The property comprises: an entrance hall serving all the main living areas, with two deep, built-in, shelved and lit store cupboards, and the entryphone handset; an impressive and bright living room with a tall, triple-bay window overlooking the private front garden, and giving access to a spacious, internal box room, which offers flexible use; a large dining kitchen with a window to the rear garden, fitted wall and base units, gas cooker, under-unit fridge, sink, wall-mounted boiler, and ample space for a dining table and chairs; two double bedrooms set to each aspect; and a bathroom with a three-piece suite and wood-panelled walls. With many delightful period details, such as ornate cornicework, original internal doors with locks, fireplaces, wood floor boards, and window shutters, the dual-aspect flat also features double glazing throughout, gas central heating, secure entry system, and would benefit from some internal modernisation and cosmetic upgrading. The private front garden is accessed via a wood gate by the main entrance to the tenement, and is laid to lawn with mature shrubbery. The shared and well-maintained rear garden also consists of a lawn, and is enclosed by hedges. There is on-street permit/metered parking to the front. Marchmont is well-placed for access to universities, hospitals, and excellent schooling, with local amenities including extensive local shopping in the vicinity, and also in neighbouring Morningside and Newington, with a wide variety of specialist shops, cafes, delicatessens, and restaurants. The Cameron Toll Shopping Centre offers further high-street shopping and a Sainsbury's superstore. The open green spaces of Bruntsfield Links and The Meadows is situated within walking distance, and include public tennis courts, playgrounds, and a seasonal pitch and putt course, whilst Holyrood Park, Arthur's Seat and Salisbury Crags are a little further to the east. The area enjoys an excellent bus service, along with ease of access to the city bypass and main motorway networks.
