Situation:
Melvin Walk is situated in the fashionable area of Fountainbridge, to the south west of central Edinburgh. The area has undergone a renaissance of redevelopment in recent years from old industrial to modern residential and the Foundry development is at the heart of it.
There are ample amenities nearby with a good range of shops including a Tesco Metro, pubs, restaurants, a bowling alley and multiplex cinema.
There is also a delightful selection of cosmopolitan restaurants, bars, bistros, delicatessens and shops to explore in nearby Bruntsfield, while the shopping hubs of George Street and Princes Street are also within walking distance. The cultural highlights of the city centre such as theatres, Edinburgh Castle and the galleries are also within easy reach. The Edinburgh Printmakers gallery has recently relocated to Castle Mills, just a five minute walk away. With its proximity to Edinburgh’s financial district and growing number of cafes and bars, this property is very well placed to benefit from the future growth of the area.
There is easy access to transport links across the city via a regular bus service, and Haymarket train station is also a short walk away. The adjacent green spaces of The Meadows and Bruntsfield Links provide acres of open space and there is easy access to the cycle paths that surround the city.
