Classic Edinburgh tenement flat on sale for a knocked down 'bargain' price

A two-bedroom tenement flat that offers traditional features is up for sale at auction next week.

Situated in Leith, it has a started bid of £185,000 - a staggering £35,000 below its Home Report value of £220,000 - and offers a potential buyer the chance to snap up a bargain.

Going under the hammer on March 23, the property is in move-in-condition and boasts a variety of charming period features including detailed cornicing and a ceiling rose in the living room, alongside the traditional high ceilings of a tenement flat.

The flat consists of an entrance hallway with traditional wooden floorboards with two spacious storage cupboards, large lounge and a kitchen with fitted wall and base units. There are also two large double bedrooms, one of which has an original fireplace, with both having great space for additional storage and/or work space, and a bathroom with three-piece suite.

It also benefits from a well-kept common close and shared garden, plus unrestricted on street parking.

Just a stone throw away from the Water of Leith, the two-bed is on North Junction Street and has easy access to the walkway, cycle path and Leith Walk where the trams will soon be running to and from the city centre.

The new owners will also enjoy having shops, cafes, restaurants and bars on their doorstep whilst Leith Theatre is less than 500 feet away.

The flat at North Junction Street is going under the hammer at Auction House Scotland’s in-room auction at 2pm on March 23 at the Radisson RED hotel, 25 Tunnel Street, Glasgow.

The auction will also be live streamed allowing interested bidders the option to watch and bid online, whilst telephone and proxy bidding is also available if potential buyers are unable to attend the auction to bid in person. All bidders are required to register to bid before participating.

Anyone interested in viewing the flat ahead of the auction day is invited to attend an open viewing taking place on Thursday March 16 between 6pm - 7pm.

More details and photos of the property can be viewed on Auction House Scotland’s website.

For further information about the property and the auction, or to arrange a viewing, please call Auction House Scotland on 0141 339 4466.
