    A light-filled and elegant three-bedroom Georgian apartment in a prime Edinburgh location

    About this property

    • Occupying a highly sought-after position on Edinburgh's fashionable and vibrant Broughton Street, minutes from St James Quarter, this elegant three-bedroom Georgian apartment lies on the second floor of a traditional tenement.

      A welcoming and spacious hallway adorned with handsome wooden flooring and wall finishes in a warm earthy tone ushers you through to an impressive west-facing living room overlooking Broughton Street. Twin sash and case windows framed by working shutters flood the space with natural light highlighting the fine period details present including original wooden flooring, exquisite cornicing, a dado rail with panel mouldings, and a mantlepiece. High ceilings and generous proportions create a wonderful sense of space and openness whilst built-in presses offer additional storage.

      Returning to the hallway, a versatile dining room also enjoys a west-facing aspect, and with its wooden flooring, mantlepiece, and sophisticated décor is perfect for entertaining in style. It could also make a light and airy fourth bedroom if required.

      Opposite the dining room, the east-facing kitchen offers plenty of natural light and retains its historic charm with polished flagstones, painted cabinetry, a charming window seat, and a Belfast sink. While functional, featuring an integrated oven and hob, the kitchen could benefit from modernisation to further enhance its appeal.

      From here, the principal double bedroom enjoys generous proportions and an easterly outlook. Boasting wooden flooring, a serene colour palette, and many fine period details including intricate cornicing it will make a most comfortable retreat.

      The two remaining bedrooms, one double and a single offer a variety of uses depending on needs and are both well-presented.

      Completing the accommodation is a stylish modern bathroom with a WC, washbasin, bath with wall-mounted shower, and towel radiator set against tiles in a relaxing natural hue.

      There is on-street permit parking.
