Property description

Rarely available, this impressive, well-presented and unique two-bedroom, duplex flat occupies the ground and lower ground floors of a stone-built, converted Victorian town house located on a quiet street in the Blacket Conservation Area, a former gated community, south of Edinburgh city centre. The property is entered via a shared and well-kept entrance vestibule/hall, and comprises an upper hall, double bedroom and single bedroom/study on ground level, and a lower hall, living room, kitchen and bathroom at lower ground level, accessed via a carpeted stairway from the upper hall. This charming flat retains many fine period features, such as ornate cornicework and ceiling roses, working shutters, original sash & casement windows, and a traditional fireplace. Features include partial wood double glazing, gas central heating, secure phone entry system, and good storage provision, as well as private front and rear gardens. Ample permit parking is also available on Blacket Place and on surrounding local streets. Blacket is a quiet residential location which borders the bustling and desirable area of Newington, which is well served by an extensive choice of shops, contemporary bars and restaurants. Roughly a mile to the south, The Cameron Toll Centre also offers a variety of high-street shops and a Sainbury's superstore. The property is located within close proximity to Edinburgh University, The Royal Infirmary, Scottish Parliament and the Royal Commonwealth Pool, whilst large open spaces can be found at Holyrood Park and The Meadows, both lying approximately half a mile from the flat and offering access to Arthur's Seat and Salisbury Crags. A great public transport service also runs along nearby Minto Street into the city centre, with Princes Street lying less than a mile and a half away.
