A spacious and bright two-bedroom property in the quiet suburb of Blackford. With a modern kitchen-diner, a spacious living room, a small balcony and a private garden area (with storage). Available now!
A highlight of this property is the spacious living room. Its focal point is an electric log burner. It also benefits from an adjacent sun room with balcony. Ideal for sitting out on summer days. This sun room is connected to a utility room that can be accessed from the communal stairs, making it perfect for muddy shoes and storing outdoor items.
The modern kitchen/dining room is a good size with all the appliances that would be expected in a furnished let. This includes an integrated microwave, full-size fridge freezer, oven, grill, gas hob, kettle and toaster. There is ample cupboard space above and below the countertops. The room has a large window allowing for plenty of light to fill the space. There is built-in corner seating with a dining table and additional chairs.
The main bedroom has a large wardrobe and an inbuilt dresser area, while the second bedroom boasts an inbuilt wardrobe. The second bedroom also shares stunning open views towards the Pentlands that are also found in the kitchen-diner.
The bathroom is stylish and contemporary, with a heated towel rail.
There is a large communal drying green and a private section of garden for the occupant's sole use. Near the garden is a storage cupboard that would be great for bikes and gardening equipment.
A few minutes’ walk away is Mayfield Road (with its Margiotta supermarket, pharmacy and several takeaways), while Cameron Toll Shopping Centre (with its ALDI, Sainsbury's and various big-name stores) is only a 15-minute walk or less than 5 minutes by car. The vibrant bars and restaurants of Newington are only a 20-minute walk. For those looking to get back to nature for an hour or two, Blackford Hill Local Natural Reserve (featuring the peaceful Hermitage of Braid and scenic views of the city from the old hill fort) is just 10 minutes away. The King's Buildings of The University of Edinburgh (the main campus of the College of Science and Engineering) can also be reached in just under 5 minutes, making this apartment perfect for those studying or working in academia.

Old Town (with the world-famous Royal Mile and the ever-popular Grassmarket) is only around 12 minutes away on the bus or 40 minutes on foot.
