Elegant two bedroom first-floor property nestled in the sought-after New Town area. Constructed in 1827, Fettes Row remains a classically Georgian street lying within the perimeter of Edinburgh's second World Heritage Site.
Upon entering the front door, the carpeted, spacious communal stairwell presents itself through hand painted marble-clad pillars. The property is comprised of a large drawing room, master bedroom with en-suite bathroom, kitchen, shower room, second bedroom and hall storage cupboards. Across the front and to the rear of the apartment stand recently renovated full height sash and case windows with working shutters, and a wrought iron balcony runs the length of the north-facing exterior. Available Part-Furnished, some items are for display purposes only.
The open drawing room hosts magnificent original marble, bronze and brass fireplace, long sofa (sofa not included), white woollen rug and oak writing bureau. The main bedroom to the rear offers a king-sized bed and newly fitted carpet, as well as an en-suite bathroom with handheld shower, saniflow WC and wash basin. Across the hall the kitchen/diner hosts ample storage and offers a pleasant south-facing view over mature trees and formal gardens. Appliances include washing machine, gas hob and oven, fridge and freezer. Other quirks include a suspended dolly maid and recently upholstered window seat. The front-facing room includes an ornate cornice, free standing mirror, wardrobe and drawers. This multi-purpose space could be used as a second bedroom, dining room or study. The shower room consists of mains pressure mixer shower that has a thermostatic control, WC and wash basin, with wood panelled ceiling and tastefully decorated walls.
The property is quietly situated off the main thoroughfare of Dundas Street, yet enjoys all the benefits of city centre living. There are a wide variety of shops in the vicinity including food stores, cafes, restaurants and bars. Neighbouring Stockbridge with its village-like bohemian charm, Sunday market and artisan shops is a mere 10 minutes walk away. The leafy Water of Leith pathway is close by, as are the Botanic gardens with 70 acres of greenery. Bus stops with frequent buses are just around the corner on Dundas Street. Parking is available for up to 2 cars with a residents permit by arrangement with Edinburgh Council.
