Property Description
An exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a spacious private main-door apartment in the heart of Edinburgh’s historic New Town.
Occupying a prime position on Broughton Place, this elegant and airy two-bedroom, two-bathroom Georgian property offers approximately 1,138 sq ft of beautifully presented accommodation. The apartment has been thoughtfully modernised while retaining the period character and architectural details that give the property its distinctive appeal.
Unlike most city-centre apartments, the property benefits from its own private front door, providing a wonderful sense of arrival, greater privacy and the feeling of an individual home rather than a traditional communal apartment.
The accommodation opens into a welcoming entrance hall featuring traditional flagstone flooring. From here, the well-proportioned rooms flow naturally through the property.
The principal bedroom is a generous and relaxing space with the added convenience of a private en-suite shower room. There is a second spacious double bedroom with built in wardrobes.
The attractive living room provides a warm and inviting setting for relaxing and entertaining, while the modern fitted kitchen offers a stylish and practical space for everyday living. A separate family shower room, wash basin and WC complete the internal accommodation.
The property also benefits from two private under-pavement cellars, providing valuable storage space rarely found in such a central city location.
Broughton Place combines the tranquillity and character of a village neighbourhood with the convenience of city-centre living. The independent cafés, restaurants, bars and shops of Broughton Street are moments away, while St James Quarter, St Andrew Square, George Street and Princes Street are all within comfortable walking distance.
The property forms part of Edinburgh’s UNESCO World Heritage Site and is ideally placed for the city’s excellent tram and bus connections, providing easy access to Haymarket, Edinburgh Airport and destinations throughout the capital.
With its rare private entrance, generous proportions, two bathrooms and outstanding central location, this is a highly distinctive Edinburgh home. It would make an exceptional principal residence, elegant pied-à-terre or attractive investment.
Location
Broughton is one of Edinburgh’s most desirable central neighbourhoods, known for its handsome period architecture and relaxed village atmosphere. Broughton Street offers an excellent selection of independent restaurants, cafés, delicatessens, shops and local services.
The apartment is also within easy reach of the Playhouse Theatre, Multrees Walk, St James Quarter, St Andrew Square and the wider city centre. Nearby tram services provide a direct connection to Edinburgh Airport, while Waverley Station is within walking distance.
Accommodation
Private main-door entrance, entrance hall, principal double bedroom with en-suite shower room, second double bedroom, living room with utility area, fitted kitchen, family shower room with wash basin and WC, and two private under-pavement cellars.
