Edinburgh fixer-upper flat hits the market with potential to be Georgian stunner

An Edinburgh flat has hit the market with the potential to be a real knockout, but it will take a bit of TLC.

Located opposite Leith Links, the Georgian two-bed has a classic and grand exterior, with the B-listed building now split into three different floors. The apartment itself is situated on the first floor of the building, with three huge windows looking out over the park and letting in a host of natural light.

Coming with two bedrooms, an open-plan kitchen/living room and a bathroom big enough for a three piece suite, the property is a bargain and is being offered for a fixed price of £240,000.

However, inside the flat is in desperate need of some attention, with most of the remaining fixtures likely needing to be ripped out and replaced. With estate agents Mov8 agreeing the flat requires some "modernisation", the home would need work before it was move-in ready, but is set to dazzle once finished.

Speaking about the property, they said: "This is a spacious, dual-aspect, two-bedroom, mezzanine-level flat, set within a B-listed Georgian building, and boasting a prime park-side position with direct views of the Leith Links, situated to the east of Edinburgh city centre. Comprises: an entrance vestibule, hall, living room/kitchen, two double bedrooms, and a bathroom.

"An excellent opportunity in an ideal location, the property will benefit from modernisation and refurbishment throughout.

"Features include well proportioned room sizes, a secure entry system, electric heating, and good integrated storage. Externally, there is ample unrestricted on-street parking to the front and in the surrounding areas.

"Set towards the front with two full-height sash and case windows providing excellent natural light and views across to the Links, the spacious reception room offers ample room for lounge and dining furniture."
