Rarely available, exquisite example of a two-bedroom, first floor apartment on one of Edinburgh’s finest Georgian squares. The property is part of a converted townhouse with intricate metal-work balconies to the front windows adding to its charm and character. Views over the centrally placed communal gardens to the front and to the rear across an expanse of neighbouring gardens and cityscape give a feeling of light and space inside this desirable residence. With many key features including original windows, cornice work and an ornately coffered ceiling, the property retains much of its original interior specification with the current owners’ design choices echoing this. The property is within walking distance of the fashionably vibrant area of Stockbridge with a wealth of artisan coffee shops, restaurants, galleries, shops and wine bars to explore.
