9 Union Street is a particularly fine original raised ground floor and garden level apartment set within a grand Georgian block. The property faces both east and west and benefits from an abundance of light throughout the day. Beautifully presented throughout, the property was subject to a significant programme of modernisation in recent years, now incorporating 9a Union Street, which is currently run as a successful income producing self-contained, albeit integrated, flat. The property retains much of its original charm with a variety of delightful period features including astragal windows, delicate cornicing and plasterwork, stripped timber floors and dado panelling.

Steps rise to the front door which opens to the welcoming and broad reception hall, from where the ground floor accommodation radiates. To the front is the elegant sitting room with two west facing astragal windows and a charming outlook along Forth Street. It also benefits from a grey marble mantelpiece and delightful plasterwork. To the other side of the hall is the beautifully appointed and recently upgraded dining kitchen with a range of white units and island topped with white silestone and marble surfaces. This room also benefits from two west facing astragal windows and a white marble mantelpiece with a log burning stove. There is ample space for a large dining table also.

Also on the ground floor is the generously proportioned principal bedroom with a charming mantelpiece, delightful plasterwork, dado panelling and a triple window with views of the rear garden. There is also direct access into the en suite bathroom which also has a further door to the hallway. There is also another spacious double bedroom on this floor, which also has a charming mantelpiece and cornicing as well as views over the garden to the rear.

The stone stair winds down to the garden level where there are two further spacious double bedrooms, of which one has an en suite shower room. There is also a useful utility room with a shower for the fourth bedroom. To the rear of the property there is a boot room area with a door opening to the rear garden.

A secret lockable door provides access into the flat at 9a Union Street, which also has its own access via the front basement area. The property is beautifully presented and has a superb open plan sitting, dining room and well-appointed kitchen, while there is a large double bedroom and a stylish bathroom. The current owners have recently obtained a short-term letting licence and have successfully created an excellent income stream.

The walled garden to the rear is generous in size and has sections of lawn with well-stocked borders and a variety of mature plants, shrubs and trees providing plenty of colour for much of the year. To the front of the property there are four under-pavement cellars.
