A new property has gone up for sale in Edinburgh, with an eye-watering price tag.
28 Great King Street, in the capital's New Town, is a five-bedroom townhouse available to buy now. However, only offers over £1,750,000 are being considered.
With households across Scotland and beyond struggling to pay bills and put food on the table amid the worsening cost of living crisis, only a select few will have enough money to purchase the grand property. Still, it's fun to take a look inside and see what could have been.
