Property Description

Occupying an enviable position on one of the New Town’s most desirable residential terraces, 9A Doune Terrace is an impressive and particularly rare garden flat, offering exceptionally spacious and versatile accommodation extending to approximately 1,875 sq ft.

What truly sets this property apart is its remarkable connection to the outdoors, with direct access to two separate private garden spaces. The principal living room opens directly onto a west-facing garden, creating a wonderful extension of the entertaining space and allowing the afternoon and evening light to be enjoyed from both inside and out. To the rear, the generous kitchen and breakfast room enjoys direct access to a second garden, providing another valuable outdoor area immediately accessible from the house. A private lane at the foot of the garden provides additional access, adding further practicality to this exceptional outside space. The combination of two gardens, both directly accessible from the accommodation, is an exceptionally rare attribute for a property of this type in Edinburgh’s historic New Town.

Internally, the accommodation is generously proportioned and offers considerable flexibility. At its heart is an impressive living and dining room, measuring approximately 18'8" x 17'7", with doors leading directly to the west-facing garden. The substantial kitchen and breakfast room sits to the rear and provides plenty of space for everyday dining and entertaining, again benefitting from its own direct garden access.

There are three principal bedrooms, with the third bedroom currently arranged as a sitting room, offering excellent flexibility depending on requirements. The especially spacious main bedroom is a particular highlight, while a separate study provides valuable space for those working from home. The accommodation is completed by a bathroom, separate shower room, excellent hall space and useful storage. At the front of the property is a private courtyard with three cellars, further adding to the exceptional level of storage available.

The property’s setting is equally impressive. Doune Terrace occupies a superb position on the edge of Edinburgh’s New Town, within particularly easy reach of Stockbridge and the city centre. Stockbridge is celebrated for its independent shops, cafés, restaurants and specialist food stores, while the green open spaces of Inverleith Park and the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh are also readily accessible. The property also falls within the catchment for the Moray Feu gardens, with access available on payment of an annual fee, providing the opportunity to enjoy four highly sought-after private residents’ gardens. Princes Street, George Street and the wider city centre are within convenient reach, giving the property an unusual combination of a peaceful residential setting and easy access to the capital’s commercial and cultural heart.

For families, this part of Edinburgh is particularly well served by schooling. Well-known independent schools in the wider area include The Edinburgh Academy, Fettes College, Erskine Stewart’s Melville Schools and St George’s School for Girls. The property also falls within the catchment area for Stockbridge Primary School and Broughton High School.
