About this property

  • 10 Doune Terrace is a most attractive main door end of terrace flat over two floors. The property offers excellent accommodation over ground and lower ground floors.

    A charming front garden sets the property well back from the road and is bordered by attractive iron railings with two gates, one to the north and one to the west. A pathway leads through the garden to the main front door, while a set of external stone steps leads down to a lower patio area where there is a second private entrance to the property.

    At ground floor level the main reception hall has a beautifully restored flagstone floor, while the drawing room retains elegant period features including twin astragal windows to the front. There are three bedrooms and a well appointed family bathroom on this floor. The principal bedroom has an en suite shower room and a delightful aspect through a west-facing astragal window to Moray Place.

    A carpeted stone staircase leads down to the lower level where there is a superb study area with built-in storage. The lower hallway opens to the kitchen and dining room, which is a wonderful space with plenty of natural light. The kitchen has integrated appliances including dishwasher, fridge freezer and a Smeg induction hob, and there is excellent additional storage in a pantry area alongside. There is a separate utility room on this floor with WC. The lower level front door leads out to a whitewashed patio area with cellar storage.

This is an incredibly rare opportunity to purchase a main door flat in the Moray Feu. I love the front garden, while the accommodation is spacious, comfortable and bright.
