A fantastic development opportunity with planning permission granted to create a unique loft-style luxury duplex in the heart of the Old Town, converting the existing double upper apartment of Tweeddale House, a B listed property of great historical significance as the original home of the Marquis of Tweeddale, dating back to 1576.

 

The apartment, site ready and in a pared back state with exposed original beams, is set back from the hustle and bustle of the High Street within a peaceful courtyard setting, with immediate access to all the cultural attractions of this central location. Plans are available on request for proposed alterations which include a spacious kitchen, sitting room, study/dining room/bedroom and a principal bedroom with dressing room and ensuite bathroom as well as a top floor with two bedrooms, bathroom and a gallery with views of the sitting room below - all with a stunning, elevated vista of surrounding churches, university buildings and cobbled streets.
