    About this property

    • 37A/2 Thistle Street is an immaculate two bedroom apartment first floor apartment. The property is in a fantastic location, tucked away on a cobblestoned street in the heart of Edinburgh's city centre. Just moments away are some of the best restaurants, bars and retail shops in the city.

      Thistle Street was planned in 1767 as part of James Craig's design and named after the national flower of Scotland.

      The accommodation is accessed via a well maintained communal stair and the property's own front door opens to a welcoming reception hall from which the accommodation flows. The flat itself is positioned above the jewellery studio below.

      A large open plan kitchen/living room is located to the front, with three south facing windows looking over Thistle Street. The spacious and well equipped kitchen has numerous wall and base units, as well as fitted appliances including an oven, induction hob and full size fridge freezer. Solid wood flooring runs throughout the room and there is an ornate fireplace set within a contemporary mantle. Working shutters also feature.

      The principal bedroom is located to the rear and features a matching fireplace and mantle. The room is spacious with a traditional dado rail running round the room to complete. The second bedroom also sits to the rear and incorporates the old range cooker where the kitchen would have originally been situated. A family bathroom services the flat and there is also an additional storage cupboard accessed from the hall.

      The property has generous storage throughout with a storage cupboard in each room, as well a useful cupboard in the hallway that has plumbing for a washing machine.

      Permit parking is available on street on application.
