Description
Fabulously situated in Edinburghs prestigious Marchmont, this two-bedroom third floor apartment, is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a spacious, well-proportioned, and bright traditional property featuring a number of original period features.
Close to open green spaces, well-regarded schooling, leisure and retail amenities, and within walking distance of the Meadows, Bruntsfield, Tollcross, and Newington, as well as the city centre, this will make a wonderful home.
Marchmont is a sought-after area a mile south of Edinburghs city centre. There are a wide variety of local amenities near to the property including a Sainsburys Local and a Tesco Express.

The Royal Commonwealth pool and gym is less than a 20 minute walk away. It is an ideal location for the University of Edinburgh. Highly regarded schooling is available across the private and state sectors including James Gillespies Primary and High School, George Watsons College, and George Heriots School.
