Situated in the heart of Edinburgh’s West End, Number One Grosvenor Crescent was redeveloped to the highest standard some ten years ago by Carlton Developments. Formerly the home of the Scottish Land Courts, this grand Victorian building is incredibly spacious with an abundance of impressive original period features. The panelled communal entrance hallway is immaculately maintained and boasts an imposing staircase and sumptuous carpeting while a large bay-window and ceiling cupola flood the space with light. The original features within the ground and garden level apartment have been restored and combined with the latest technology and appliances all set against fresh, contemporary décor, statement light fittings and Walnut hardwood flooring. To the outside lies a generous patio area overlooking the beautiful façade of St Mary’s Cathedral and the adjacent Grosvenor Crescent Gardens; an ideal spot for catching the evening sun. Two sizeable dry-lined cellars offer scope for further development. The property enjoys access to the peaceful Grosvenor Crescent gardens for a nominal annual fee.
