Situation

The property is ideally situated in the popular residential area of Murrayfield; just a short stroll away from the City Centre’s art galleries, museums, boutiques, restaurants and bars. The West end is a 10 minute walk away offering an array of exceptional Michelin starred gastro restaurants and quirky culinary haunts, as well as cafes and contemporary bars.

Murrayfield is renowned for its strong sense of community and is well served by a range of excellent local amenities. Roseburn, an area situated adjacent to Murrayfield, is a 5 minute stroll from the property and offers a Tescos Extra and a collection of independent shops. The property also benefits from its close proximity to Craigleith Retail Park where you can find a Sainsbury’s or Marks & Spencer.

Perhaps most notably, the property is in the ideal location to entertain after a day spent watching Rugby at Scotland’s National Stadium or maybe after a concert featuring your favourite band.

The property is well located with the modern tram system just a 10 minute walk away connecting the city centre, West End, Murrayfield Stadium and Edinburgh Airport. Edinburgh Haymarket Station is also a 10 minute walk from the property, providing direct trains to a variety of locations including Glasgow and London. The property is also well served by Buses and the city’s extensive cycle network at Ravelston Dykes. Roseburn Park is nearby and the green spaces of the Water of Leith and Corstorphine Hill are easily accessible.

Edinburgh itself is a mecca for entertainment from grand concert halls and theatres to intimate art galleries and underground clubs. The city is bursting in charm and its streets are saturated in history whilst showcasing some iconic twentieth century architecture.

The area is very popular with families, largely due to its selection of well-regarded schools. Murrayfield Avenue falls into the catchment area for Roseburn Primary which is within easy walking distance. Private schooling is also within easy reach at St. George’s School for Girls, Erskine Stewart’s Melville Schools, Fettes College and The Edinburgh Academy.
