Communal gardens, lift access and unallocated residents parking with two electric car charging points. (To be installed later in the year by the developer).

 


SITUATION:

The Tayworks is a fantastic development in the vibrant area of Leith, just minutes away from Edinburgh city centre. These highly efficient homes are fitted with a high specification throughout and every design detail has been taken into consideration to encompass spacious city living.


Central to this development is the concept of open spaces – with a large communal garden space to the rear of the development as well as Edinburgh’s numerous green open spaces including Calton Hill, Arthur’s Seat, Edinburgh’s extensive cycle network and the Water of Leith walkway.


Leith is a vibrant, thriving community with a great selection of restaurants and coffee shops at the Shore area beside the Port of Leith as well as Tesco, Sainsbury’s and the many useful retail outlets on Leith Walk. Nearby, Ocean Terminal offers an array of high street retailers, restaurants and a multi screen cinema complex.


The property is only a short distance from the city centre with its abundant shopping establishments, boutiques and bars; renowned Art Galleries, Museums and Tourist Attractions; cosmopolitan cafés and restaurants; John Lewis’ department store, and the newly opened £1bn St James Quarter retail, leisure and residential development. 


The property boasts proximity to Waverley Rail Station; the city’s efficient bus and tram network with direct access to Edinburgh International Airport; the City Bypass and Scotland’s central motorway network.


There is excellent local school provision in the area as well as proximity to many of the city’s private schools such as Fettes College and The Edinburgh Academy.

 

DESCRIPTION:

The apartment is entered from the communal stair on the fourth floor into a spacious hallway providing access throughout the accommodation. Walk-in cupboard providing storage and secure video entry system.


The bright and spacious open plan living dining kitchen has a dual aspect outlook and has plenty of space for living and dining furniture. There is a further cupboard providing extra storage and an area adjacent to the kitchen which can accommodate a desk, ideal for home working which doesn’t impede the living space. The private balcony has a south facing aspect and tremendous views of the Edinburgh Skyline.


The German kitchen supplied by Riddle & Coghill is comprised of modern sleek base and wall units with stone worktop and upstands and under cabinet lighting. Appliances by Bosch include induction hob with extractor, electric oven / grille, fridge freezer, dishwasher and washer / drier.


Both double bedrooms have fitted wardrobes providing ample hanging and shelving storage with the principal bedroom further benefiting from an ensuite shower room with wc and wash hand basin from the Grohe range complemented with Grohe taps and fittings.


The bathroom has a three piece suite comprising bath with shower above and glass shower screen, wash hand basin and wc, again from the Grohe range complemented with Grohe taps and fittings.


Externally, there is a communal stair with lift, unallocated residents parking with two electric vehicle charging points. (To be installed later in the year by the developer) and communal garden.


The property presents a great opportunity to purchase a modern flat within a prime situation within the development. The property has not been lived in at all presenting the purchaser what is effectively a new apartment and shall be attractive to the owner occupier as a primary residence or second home and the buy to let investor.
