Edinburgh property: Flat with unbelievable castle views hits the market

Picture the scene, you have just woken up from dancing the night away with friends in one of the many fantastic Old Town bars, after pouring a coffee you fling open the curtains and are greeted by a spectacular view of Edinburgh Castle.

Well this could be your reality. A top floor one-bed B-listed flat that looks onto the Grassmarket and looks onto Edinburgh Castle has become available for £165,000.

The unfurnished home is situated within a Victorian tenement and is in an ideal location for a young professional or couple who like to make the most out of being in a city centre location.

Not only are there a number of fantastic eateries and bars right on your doorstep but you would also get a unique front row seat for the Tattoo and Hogmanay firework displays.

Of course any potential buyer would have to love hearing the buzz of the Old Town even on the days where they would be looking to kick back and relax.

There is a large living area in the flat that makes a spacious main room that can fit ample seating and potentially a dining table as well as a TV.

The kitchen has ample room to cook a meal for guests or for a cosy night in and is actually larger than a lot of one-bed flats in the same area.

The bedroom is large enough for a desk and a double bed as well as having a lot of space for storage.

Although the bathroom does look as though it needs a touch of TLC in order to breathe some life into it - it is also rather cramped but just the sacrifice of living in such an amazing location.

Connell & Connell solicitors and estate agents have advertised the property on ESPC, the described it as: “Located in the heart of the Old Town, this spacious one bed top floor flat offers uninterrupted views of Edinburgh Castle and has the very best of what Edinburgh has to offer on its doorstep.

The flat is located on the top floor. (Connell & Connell.)

“The property is accessed via a well maintained communal stairwell and has the additional benefit of a secure entry system. The flat has a spacious entrance hall with two storage cupboards, one housing the combi boiler.

“A front facing twin window lounge/diner with excellent unobscured views of Edinburgh Castle, a kitchen fitted with a range of base and wall mounted units with coordinating work surfaces, splash back tiling and an integrated oven, hob and extractor.

Large bedroom within the flat. (Connell & Connell.)

“There is a large front facing double bedroom with the benefit of built in wardrobes and castle views. A bathroom fitted with a three piece suite with electric shower over bath completed the accommodation on offer.

“Externally, the property has access to a shared communal garden and on street permit parking.”
