3 bedroom duplex for sale

This three-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex flat is arranged over the second and third floors of an established development in exclusive Dean Village, within the Dean conservation area. This unique location on the banks of the Water of Leith boasts superb views of the river and village. The location conveys a feeling of country living despite being in such a central city location, truly enjoying the best of both worlds. The home has undergone many upgrades in recent years, including full redecoration, new balcony doors in the living room, new oak doors throughout and an additional Velux window in the main bedroom. 

Entrance – Welcome to 15/3 Damside

The flat's front door is on the second floor and is approached via a secure shared entrance and stairwell. You are welcomed inside by a practical vestibule flowing through to a hall, with both areas accompanied by useful built-in storage and setting the tone for the interiors to follow with tasteful decor, with handsome wood flooring in the hall.

 Living/dining room – Generous reception room with wonderful river views

The reception room occupies a generous footprint which allows for various configurations of furniture catering for both relaxation and dining, and is it decorated in pared-back neutral tones, with the same warm wood flooring as the hall. The room is filled with natural light through a wealth of glazing, including high spec aluminium balcony doors incorporating acoustic glass opening out to the Juliette balcony and the breath-taking views of the adjacent Water of Leith. 

Breakfasting kitchen – Well-appointed, modern cooking space with breakfast bar

The kitchen comes well-appointed with Shaker-inspired wall and base cabinets, wood-styled worktops, a sink with a Hansgrohe mixer tap, and metro-tiled splashbacks, with integrated appliances comprising a Neff double oven, a Neff four-burner gas hob, a Bosch fridge/freezer, a Smeg dishwasher, and a Zanussi washing machine. A fitted breakfast bar creates the perfect space for morning coffee, casual weeknight meals, and socialising while cooking.

 

Bedrooms – Three tranquil bedrooms for a peaceful night's sleep

 

The home has three bedrooms – two generous doubles and one good-sized single. The doubles are both on the upper floor, approached via a staircase with a glass balustrade. The principal bedroom has a large built-in wardrobe and shelving unit, designed to make the most of the space on offer, whilst the second bedroom is set to the rear of the flat and overlooks the Water of Leith, with a window seat (with incorporated storage) allowing for enjoyment of the tranquil views. The second bedroom also has a large fitted wardrobe. The third bedroom is on the ground floor and offers flexibility for use, including a dining room, a casual TV room, or a home office.

 

Bathrooms – Two stylish and functional washrooms

 

The principal bedroom's en-suite shower room comprises a large corner shower enclosure, a basin set into vanity storage, and a WC, whilst the separate family bathroom comes complete with a bath with a shower attachment, a separate shower enclosure, a WC-suite, and a mirrored, wall-mounted vanity cabinet. Both washrooms are stylishly presented and the bathroom has Karndean flooring.

 

The home is kept warm by a gas central heating system (which can be controlled via a phone app) and benefits from double-glazed windows.

 

Gardens and parking – Well-maintained shared outdoor space and private parking

 

Externally, the flat enjoys access to a well-maintained shared garden, for which the upkeep is covered by the factoring fee. Private parking is provided by a fully powered single garage and a water supply and one resident's parking permit.

 

Extras: All fitted floor coverings, some window coverings, light fittings, integrated kitchen appliances, and security system will be included in the sale.
