A perfectly proportioned four-bedroom Georgian townhouse on a peaceful cobbled street in the heart of vibrant Stockbridge with its wealth of restaurants and independent shops, whilst only a short walk from the city centre. The property, a true gem, is arranged over four floors and has been lovingly restored by the current owners to create a warm and welcoming home with an eclectic mix of key original features including fireplaces, sash and case windows, panelling and a cupola, combined with contemporary additions such as a bespoke kitchen with adjoining vaulted conservatory leading into a rarely available secluded private garden to the rear, packed with mature shrubs and trees.  With the added benefit of a self-contained basement currently used as a workshop and teenage den, this lovely house will attract a family who fall for its considerable comfort, charm and character, close to all amenities, excellent state school provision and some of the city’s best private schools.

George Street and Princes Street, along with the historic and cultural attractions of Edinburgh’s city centre are only a few minutes walk away. There is a Waitrose supermarket nearby in Comely Bank and slightly further afield the Craigleith Retail Park includes a Sainsbury’s supermarket and a Marks & Spencer, amongst other shops.

 

There is excellent local and private schooling in the vicinity including The Edinburgh Academy and Fettes College.
