An infrequent opportunity is offered to purchase a traditional, late Victorian, first floor tenement flat on Pitt Street, in the popular Bonnington District of Edinburgh. It is spacious, but would benefit from modernisation, thus allowing for an innovative and contemporary approach to its spatial use. Its desirable location, allied to its very competitive price will appeal to both owner / occupiers and investors.

A secure communal front door opens from cobbled Pitt Street into the hall and stair leading io the flat on the first floor. Inside the flat, its own hall offers direct access to all rooms, while also providing a small full height cupboard. The comfortably sized, south facing, twin windowed living room overlooks the street; it retains its dado rail, fire place and mantlepiece, while also having a very useful large store cupboard. The kitchen is to the back of the flat, overlooking the well-tended communal drying green. It is genuinely large and provides enough space for not only cooking but also dining. It has both floor and wall mounted storage units, work surfaces with tiled splash backs and integrated appliances. A floor mounted return unit with counter top divides the kitchen area of the room from the dining area; there is also a large built-in corner cupboard.

The principal double bedroom is south facing and has a walk-in wardrobe. The second smaller bedroom would also make an ideal study or office, if required. A bathroom with three-piece suite and shower over the bath completes the accommodation. The flat is double glazed and is heated by electric storage radiators.
