Situation:

Royal Circus is situated in an elegant and tranquil location which belies its close proximity to the city’s bustling centre. A peaceful Georgian residential street, which is entirely A listed and is part of Edinburgh’s New Town, designated a UNESCO World Heritage site due to its architectural importance, was designed by William Playfair in 1820.

The neighbouring area of Stockbridge is a lively hub and much sought after area of Edinburgh due to its thriving village atmosphere with excellent amenities such as galleries, bars, restaurants, coffee shops and a weekly artisan street market. Ample green space surrounds the area with parks, cycle paths and Botanical Gardens.

George Street and Princes Street, along with several historic and cultural attractions of Edinburgh’s city centre are only a few minutes walk away.

There is a Waitrose supermarket nearby in Comely Bank and slightly further afield the Craigleith Retail Park includes a Sainsbury’s supermarket and a Marks & Spencer, amongst other shops.

There is excellent local and private schooling in the vicinity including The Edinburgh Academy, St. George’s School for Girls, Stewarts Melville College, The Mary Erskine School and Fettes College.

Residents are eligible for membership of Royal Circus Gardens, the private gardens opposite the property. The area benefits from zoned parking and easy access to Edinburgh’s public transport network, Waverley and Haymarket stations, the city bypass and Edinburgh International Airport.
