The Local Area
South of the city, the much sought after residential district of Newington is directly bounded by the Grange and only minutes from Blackford Hill, the Hermitage of Braid and several golf courses.
The area is within easy reach of a broad range of shops, restaurants, coffee shops and Cameron Toll Shopping Centre which has a wide range of high street retailers. It is popular with young professionals working in the city as the area has excellent transport links into the centre of town. Medical professionals, students and academics also find the area attractive due to the proximity of King's Buildings and the Royal Infirmary.
To the south, the Edinburgh Bypass and Straiton Retail Park are easily accessible.
The property is in the School Catchment Area for Sciennes Primary School, St Peter's RC Primary School, James Gillespie's High School and St Thomas of Aquin's RC High School. Private School options such as George Heriots, George Watson's College and Merchiston Castle are within easy reach.
