About
McEwan Fraser Legal is delighted to present this beautifully presented one-bedroom, second-floor flat in a traditional tenement building on Broughton Road.
Combining attractive period features with modern comforts, this impressive property offers generously proportioned accommodation, including a versatile box room, and would make an ideal purchase for a first-time buyer, professional couple or anyone seeking a characterful home within easy reach of the city centre.
This style of traditional tenement flat also lends itself to reconfiguration, with similar properties commonly converted into two-bedroom accommodation.
Subject to obtaining all necessary local authority consents and other relevant permissions, the existing layout may be adapted to create a second bedroom, offering an attractive opportunity for purchasers looking to maximise the property's potential.
The accommodation is accessed via a welcoming entrance hallway with useful integrated storage.
The impressive living room is undoubtedly one of the property's standout features, enjoying excellent natural light and retaining much of the traditional character associated with Edinburgh's Victorian tenements.
Intricate cornicing and exposed floorboards combine to create a particularly appealing living space, with ample room for a variety of furniture arrangements.
A particularly useful addition is the box room, which offers an ideal space for a compact home office or study.
This versatile area could also provide valuable additional storage, depending on the purchaser's needs.
The dining kitchen offers a practical, well-proportioned space with a range of fitted base and wall-mounted cabinets, providing excellent preparation space and storage.
All appliances are freestanding, including an attractive range-style cooker, while the generous proportions allow ample room for a breakfast table, creating a comfortable and versatile space for everyday dining.
Set at the rear of the building, the spacious double bedroom enjoys a quieter outlook and offers ample space for a full range of freestanding bedroom furniture.
The modern bathroom features a contemporary white suite, including a bath with a mains shower over, plus a heated towel rail and natural light.
The property also benefits from gas central heating and double glazing, ensuring a comfortable living environment year-round.
Externally, residents have access to an attractive and well-maintained communal rear garden, offering a pleasant outdoor space in this popular residential setting.
On-street permit and metered parking is available in the surrounding streets.
