Spanning over 1618 square feet, the large home boasts wonderfully bright and spacious rooms, finished to impeccable standards with attractive neutral styling and high-quality fixtures and fittings. It makes the most of its elevated position too, with many of the rooms featuring Juliet balconies, in addition to two private balconies with amazing views of Edinburgh Castle and Calton Hill, as well as Arthur’s Seat. Expansive open-plan reception space is combined with a generously appointed kitchen, while the three double bedrooms are served by two contemporary bathrooms and a wealth of storage.
