About
McEwan Fraser Legal is delighted to present 48B Timber Bush, a charming mews-style house in the heart of The Shore, one of Edinburgh’s most sought-after locations.
Significantly, the property is an established and fully licensed short-term holiday let, benefiting from a Certificate of Lawfulness confirming its established use and a current short-term-let licence.
With a proven trading history dating back to 2011, the property represents an exceptional opportunity for an investor to acquire an established, legally authorised and profitable short-term-let business in one of Edinburgh’s most popular visitor destinations.
Accessed via an attractive shared courtyard, the property retains a wealth of period character and offers spacious, well-proportioned accommodation.
The interior includes a generous living room, a contemporary kitchen, two comfortable double bedrooms, shower room and a downstairs WC.
The property’s character, generous accommodation and enviable location make it particularly well suited to the short-term holiday market, with licensed occupancy for up to four guests.
Professionally managed and offered fully furnished, the property is an established and successful short-term-let business, with Airbnb Superhost status and an impressive 4.8-star guest rating from over 250 reviews.
Generating approximately £60,000 per annum in net booking revenue, with scope for further growth, the business also benefits from a substantial forward book of reservations extending to August 2027.
