Spacious drawing room apt 10 mins to Princess st | Apartment in Comely Bank, Edinburgh


Comely Bank mornings, pale garden light, a kitchen for easy meals.
Summary:
Stunning large drawing room apartment with beautiful outlook over private gardens, within 10 minutes walk to Princes Street. This apartment is spacious light and an ideal place to relax. Two large bedrooms and ample living space for up to four people. Located in the fashionable district of Comely Bank, close to Stockbridge village. Stockbridge is full of fabulous eateries, cafes and bars. Once home to Sir Ernest Shackleton, the Antarctic explorer.
The Space:
This first floor apartment is within a converted town house circa 1890 and is decorated to a very high standard, retaining many period features including ornate cornicing and wooden panelling. The apartment has Virgin Media cable TV and high-speed internet/WiFi (up to 100Mbps, optical fibre) with unlimited downloads.
The property consists of a very large drawing (living) room, hallway, two double bedrooms both with comfortable double beds, kitchen and bathroom. There is a desk and stool for laptop use.
The apartment has gas central heating with radiators in every room, which provide ample warmth in winter months. There is also a traditional cast-iron fireplace in the living room, with a realistic living flame electric fire.
The kitchen has a gas cooker, microwave, fridge/freezer and washing machine. The clothes dryer is a traditional Edinburgh clothes pulley.
Guests have access to the private Learmonth Gardens opposite the apartment, ideal for BBQs or to relax under the trees.
If you have a car, paid street parking operates Mon-Fri, 8:30am-5:30pm, currently £3.10/hour. It is free outside these times, including all weekend. There is also Mon-Fri all-day street parking about a 5 minute walk away (£1/hr, capped at £8.40/day).
The Neighborhood:
The apartment enjoys a quiet location on a traditional cobbled street overlooking private gardens with mature trees. The trendy area of Stockbridge with boutique shops, popular bars/restaurants, Waitrose and a lovely Sunday Market are less than a 5 minute walk.
Getting Around:
I recommend downloading the Lothian bus app. It has a great route planner, and the Edinburgh bus service is very good. Edinburgh also has a tram service which takes you from the city centre to the airport. As Edinburgh is relatively small city taxis are also inexpensive.
