About this property

  • 71/2 Great King Street is an immaculately presented first floor property in the heart of Edinburgh's New Town. The property is accessed from a stunning communal stairwell which has been tastefully decorated and well maintained.

    The flat benefits from an abundance of light from the large timber sash and case windows in the drawing room. This room is extremely spacious and has wonderful period features including a large marble fireplace, detailed cornicing and working shutters.

    Situated off the drawing room through double doors, is the modern kitchen which has been cleverly designed to maximise floor and wall units. The kitchen can be closed off to become a separate space, or open plan with the drawing room which is perfect for modern living and entertaining.

    There are two spacious double bedrooms to the rear of the property, with the principal bedroom featuring built-in wardrobes and a delightful window seat. The dining room could also be flexibly used as a further large bedroom or home office. Also accessed from the hallway is the convenient utility and contemporary family shower room which benefits from under floor heating.

    Externally, there is parking available by resident's permit, and access to Queen Street Gardens Central upon application and nominal annual fee. The property also benefits from convenient storage space within the communal hallway.
