Situation:

Leith is a bustling, cosmopolitan area lying approximately three miles to the East of Edinburgh City Centre and within easy reach of the city’s business, financial and shopping districts. The property is a short walk from The Shore with its varied offering of independent shops, bars, restaurants and popular Farmers’ Market and is also well served by superstores nearby including Tesco, Asda and Morrisons. The Water of Leith cycle path is also close by.


An important 19th century trading centre, Leith is undergoing a dramatic renaissance and provides a thriving mix of both traditional and cutting-edge businesses. It is home to many high-end restaurants including Martin Wishart, The Kitchin and The Chop House and a selection of bars, shops and artisan cafés. The area also benefits from Ocean Terminal, Edinburgh’s most innovative retail and leisure complex, complete with a 12-screen cinema and Marks and Spencer food hall, which are located on the waterfront adjacent to the Royal Yacht Britannia.


Leith features a number of sports and entertainment options including gym and leisure facilities within a few minutes’ walk of the property and also the David Lloyd Leisure Centre, Harbour Tennis Club and Pure Gym in Ocean Terminal while green open spaces such as Leith Links, The Royal Botanic Gardens, Inverleith Park, the Water of Leith Walkway and Edinburgh’s cycle network are all close by. Slightly further afield, East Lothian is easily accessible from this part of the city.


There is excellent proximity to the city’s efficient bus network and an extension of the city’s tramline to include Leith and Newhaven is currently underway. The property is also convenient for access to the City Bypass, Edinburgh International Airport and Scotland’s Motorway Network.
