Overlooked by Edinburgh Castle, a second floor, one bedroom flat, situated centrally on the north side of the iconic and world famous Grassmarket, in the heart of the capital's Old Town.

The flat forms part of a Category B listed 4-bay plain classical tenement with shops at street level that was built circa 1800. In one of the most amenity rich areas of the city and offered on the market in excellent condition and competitively valued, it presents an ideal opportunity for either a purchaser looking for that starter flat in the centre of the Old Town or perhaps, those looking for a pied-à-terre.

The flat's front door opens into the welcoming hall that offers direct access to all rooms, while also providing a very useful walk-in cupboard. The twin widowed, south facing, living room overlooks the bustling Grassmarket and is large enough to accommodate both sitting and dining areas. The separate kitchen has good storage space, work surfaces with tiled splash backs, an integrated cooker and hob and slot-in dishwasher, washing machine and fridge.

The quiet and comfortable double bedroom that has a built-in wardrobe is to the rear of the flat and a modern, partially tiled, shower room with three-piece suite completes the accommodation.

The flat has electric heating and traditional sash & case windows. There are both permit and pay & display on-street parking conveniently close.

Location:
The historic Grassmarket is world famous. Set below Edinburgh Castle and within the World Heritage site, it exemplifies the vibrancy and fascination of the thriving Old Town of Edinburgh.

Nowadays the Grassmarket is pedestrianised to recreate its original use as a market square. It and the surrounding area throng with pavement cafes, restaurants, bars and an eclectic mix of interesting shops and boutiques. A walk-up Victoria Street leads to the head of the Royal Mile and Edinburgh Castle and a choice of some of Scotland's most appealing and iconic cultural attractions.

The Meadows are nearby and the nightlife of the popular Cowgate and the shops of Princes Street are both easily reached.

Very efficient public bus services operate, from the Grassmarket, across the city and the City Bypass and main motorway networks are also within easy reach and Waverley Station is a short walk.
