Situation

Built between 1814 and 1825, Melville Street was designed by the architect Robert Brown and formed the centrepiece of the Walker Estate. The street remains largely unaltered, retaining much of its Georgian grandeur, it is an impressively wide avenue flanked by terraces of classical townhouses at the end of which lies the beautiful and imposing St Mary’s Cathedral. Today the street lies in the bustling heart of Edinburgh’s fashionable West End with its abundant shopping establishments, restaurants and bars and is also central to the city’s main business and financial districts. The property is within easy walking distance of Prince’s Street, George Street and all the many attractions of the City Centre as well as being close to Stockbridge with its village atmosphere, artisan shops, cafés and thriving weekly food market.

 

There are a number of recreational facilities close by including Drumsheugh Swimming Baths, the Edinburgh Sports Club and Dean Tennis Club whilst Edinburgh’s National Gallery and two acclaimed modern art galleries are just minutes away. The green open spaces of Princes Street Gardens, the Royal Botanic Gardens, Inverleith Park and the Water of Leith Walkway are also within walking distance.

 

The area is well served by both a Sainsbury’s Local and Tesco Express and there is a Waitrose in Stockbridge, as well as numerous independent shops in the West End. Melville Street benefits from zoned parking outside the property, ample metred parking for visitors, and good proximity to the city’s public bus and tram network and Haymarket station as well as convenient access to the City Bypass, A1 and Edinburgh International Airport.
