Spacious (113sqm) Main Door, ground floor, two bedroom apartment within a traditional late Victorian tenement with direct access to a communal rear garden, situated in the favoured Newington district of Edinburgh.

This property would make an ideal home or an excellent purchase for a shrewd investor, due to its accessible location. The accommodation retains many of its original architectural features and comprises: entrance hall with storage cupboard; impressive sitting room with bay window, ornate cornicing, and feature fireplace. The dining kitchen has a range of wall and base mounted units with tiled and stainless steel splashbacks and space for dining furniture, as well as a back door providing direct access to the rear communal garden. Both double bedrooms are sizable and have attractive high ceilings and exceptional natural light. The partially tiled, three piece bathroom with shower over the bath completes the property.

The property has access to a communal rear garden. On street permit and pay and display parking (Zone 7) is available on East Preston Street and surrounding streets.

Newington is a favoured residential district of Edinburgh, lying around two miles south of the City Centre. It offers a wide selection of amenities, including essential and specialist shops, Post Office and banking. There is also a good choice of bars, restaurants and cafes. Cameron Toll Shopping Centre is a mile away and is open seven days a week. The property is close to both of the University of Edinburgh's main campuses: George Square and King's Buildings. Recreation and leisure are well served with the Queen’s Hall music venue and festival theatre venue both less than one mile away. Prestonfield and Duddingston golf courses are convenient. The royal Commonwealth Pool is across the road from the property address, as is, Holyrood Park and Arthur’s Seat. Regular bus services run from Newington to the City Centre and vehicular access to the motorway networks are provided via Dalkeith Road A7.

All window furnishings (curtains, curtain poles, blinds etc), floor coverings, light fixtures, appliances (both integrated and free standing) and furniture are included in the sale. No warranties or guarantees will be provided.

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on May 24, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
