Description

Wonderful purpose built, 2-bedroom traditional flat in Leith. The property would benefit from modernisation, which is reflected in the value, making this property a huge opportunity for the successful purchaser not only to make a fantastic home but also to increase the value.

Features:
* Infrequent opportunity offered to purchase a traditional two-bedroom first floor tenement flat
* Located on Pitt Street, in the popular Bonnington District of Edinburgh
* Modernisation would allow for an innovative and contemporary approach to its spatial use
* Accommodation comprises: Hall, comfortable living room, large kitchen, principal double bedroom, second bedroom and bathroom
* Double glazing and electric heating
* Well-maintained communal drying green

An infrequent opportunity is offered to purchase a traditional, late Victorian, first floor tenement flat on Pitt Street, in the popular Bonnington District of Edinburgh. It is spacious, but would benefit from modernisation, thus allowing for an innovative and contemporary approach to its spatial use. Please note that the property is sold as seen. Its desirable location, allied to its very competitive price will appeal to both owner / occupiers and investors.

A secure communal front door opens from cobbled Pitt Street into the hall and stair leading io the flat on the first floor. Inside the flat, its own hall offers direct access to all rooms, while also providing a small full height cupboard. The comfortably sized, south facing, twin windowed living room overlooks the street; it retains its dado rail, fire place and mantlepiece, while also having a very useful large store cupboard. The kitchen is to the back of the flat, overlooking the well-tended communal drying green. It is genuinely large and provides enough space for not only cooking but also dining. It has both floor and wall mounted storage units, work surfaces with tiled splash backs and integrated appliances. A floor mounted return unit with counter top divides the kitchen area of the room from the dining area; there is also a large built-in corner cupboard.

The principal double bedroom is south facing and has a walk-in wardrobe. The second smaller bedroom would also make an ideal study or office, if required. A bathroom with three-piece suite and shower over the bath completes the accommodation. The flat is double glazed and is heated by electric storage radiators.

Location:
Bonnington lies between Trinity and Leith, on the north side of Edinburgh, and the Water of Leith flows through its heart. The district has many property styles including stone built Victorian tenements such as found on Pitt Street.

There is a great distribution of small essential shops throughout Bonnington and there is a Tesco Superstore on Broughton Road that is about a mile away.

Recreation and exercise are catered for by Pilrig Park, Victoria Swim Centre, the Vue Cinema Complex plus a multitude of good cafes, bars and restaurants in both the Broughton and iconic Shore areas.

There are excellent bus services to the city centre and all other areas of Edinburgh and access to the City By-pass and the motorway system is straight forward.

Condition:
We recommend any interested party review the Home Report fully with their solicitor prior to submitting bids. The property is sold as seen and as per the Home Report, it is mostly good but would benefit from modernisation in parts. It should be noted as well that the property has wall mounted electric heating units and it is assumed that the hot water is provided via circulating tank however, this has not been tested. No warranties or guarantees are provided with this sale. This is reflected in value.
