The property is ideally situated on Elm Row at the top end of Leith Walk, situated on the boundary of the New Town. Elm Row is strategically placed, as it is only a short distance from Princes Street and all city centre amenities. There are a host of everyday amenities available on Leith Walk, including banks, a post office, food outlets and convenience stores. Towards the foot of Leith Walk is a large Tesco supermarket while there is another Tesco at Canonmills. Excellent shopping and a myriad of restaurants, theatres, cinemas, galleries and museums all contribute to the city centre’s sophistication and appeal. The Omni Centre, at the head of Leith Walk boasts a Health and Fitness Club, a multi-screen cinema and several restaurants. Edinburgh’s St James Quarter offers most fashionable shopping and leisure opportunities. The National Monument, at the summit of Calton Hill, that was erected to commemorate Scottish heroism in the Napoleonic Wars and the Scottish Parliament, with its dramatic and controversial architecture, are both within easy reach, as are Holyrood Palace and the stunning open spaces of the Queen’s Park. Well served by day and night bus services to the city centre, Picardy Place & McDonald Road tram stops providing links from Newhaven to Edinburgh International Airport and Waverley train station providing onward travel. The property is ideally placed for those working in the city centre, whilst the motorist can use the A1 for routes out of city towards the bypass and wider motorway network.
