This well-presented and generously proportioned apartment forms part of an attractive B-Listed Georgian tenement which dates back to 1802. Situated on the top floor, the apartment is extremely peaceful and has a beautiful sunny aspect with impressive open views all the way to The Forth bridges. The property is in excellent order having undergone a series of modern upgrades in recent years including a full re-wire, new windows and central heating as well as new flooring laid through the sitting room and hall. Despite the top floor position, a notable feature of the property is that it retains high, uncoombed ceilings.
Upon entering the home, there is a versatile open space that would be well-suited as a study or simply an ample entryway. Straight ahead is the spacious, twin-windowed sitting room which features a wonderful gas stove. The stylish kitchen is nextdoor, and is fitted with integrated appliances, a handy clothes drying pulley and two large pantry style cupboards. A unique attribute to this home is the substantial dining room which is flooded with light by the overhead, triple glazed skylight. There is also excellent storage available below the dining room, accessible via a concealed hatch. The principal bedroom, which has delightful rooftop views, also boasts a contemporary en suite and built-in cupboard. There are two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom fitted with Heritage sanitaryware and a handcrafted Dutch door.
The property has modern gas central heating and double glazed windows.
Permit parking is widely available on the street. Keys are available to Queen Street Gardens for an annual subscription fee.
