This is a rare opportunity to purchase on Roxburgh Street, an attractive cobbled street with a quiet, yet wonderfully central setting. Situated on the top floor, this B-Listed flat benefits from outstanding views over the city skyline, the Salisbury Crags and as far as North Berwick.
The sitting/dining room is positioned on the corner of the building making it a bright room with a pleasant dual aspect. It is large space which retains period features that include cornicing, twelve pane sash and case windows and feature fire with tiled hearth. The fitted kitchen with integrated oven and hob is filled with natural light thanks to the skylight above. All three of the bedrooms are generous double rooms. A shower room off the hall completes the accommodation.
Most recently operated as a very successful HMO rental, the property would make an excellent investment or full time city home.
The property further benefits from gas central heating and single glazing.
There is a secure door entry system and on street permit parking.
