About
This beautifully presented ground-floor, two-bedroom apartment forms part of a modern, energy-efficient new-build development in a convenient Edinburgh location.
Designed with contemporary living in mind, the property offers a bright, spacious layout with high-quality finishes throughout, making it an excellent choice for first-time buyers, professionals, downsizers or investors.
Accessed via a secure entry phone system, the property opens into a welcoming hallway with excellent built-in storage, including a utility cupboard with plumbing for a washing machine, helping to maintain a clean and uncluttered living environment.
The apartment benefits from double glazing, low energy lighting throughout, and efficient heating systems, all contributing to its strong overall energy performance.
At the heart of the home is a generous dual-aspect open plan sitting, dining and kitchen space, designed to maximise natural light and create a flexible area for both relaxing and entertaining.
The kitchen is finished to a high standard with high gloss dove grey units, soft close doors and drawers, laminate worktops and upstands, integrated stainless-steel appliances, a feature black glass extractor fan, and chrome switches and sockets.
The living area flows seamlessly through patio doors to the communal rear gardens, enhancing the sense of space and connection to the outdoors. Both bedrooms are well-proportionated double rooms.
The principal bedroom enjoys direct access to the communal gardens via patio doors, while the second bedroom includes a useful built-in storage cupboard.
The family bathroom is finished with contemporary tiling and features a ceramic bath with shower and glass screen, a wash hand basin with stainless steel mixer tap, dual flush WC with soft close seat, heated chrome towel rail, and shaver point.
Externally, residents benefit from an allocated off-street private parking space positioned conveniently at the front of the building, as well as access to enclosed landscaped communal gardens shared by just eight properties.
The gardens offer a pleasant outdoor space with seating areas and distant views over the River Forth towards Fife.
The development itself has been carefully designed with sustainability and efficiency in mind, incorporating high levels of insulation, modern construction methods, solar panels, and durable contemporary external finishes including render, facing brick, and timber detailing.
A factoring arrangement is in place to manage the upkeep of communal areas, including cleaning, lighting, building insurance, and garden maintenance.
Overall, this is a stylish and well-specified modern apartment offering comfortable, low-maintenance living in a well-maintained development.
