Positioned on the second floor of a striking Georgian building at the corner of Dublin Street and Abercromby Place, this generously proportioned flat offers superb lateral living space with up to four bedrooms and two shower rooms, all set within the heart of Edinburgh's New Town.

The flat is accessed via a welcoming hallway, leading directly into a kitchen/dining room complete with built-in seating, contemporary units, original slate flooring and far-reaching garden views. The expansive sitting room enjoys a corner aspect with large sash-and-case astragal windows on two elevations. This room benefits from uniquely far-reaching views over the Forth Estuary.

The accommodation is exceptionally flexible: The impressive principal bedroom, which could also function as a dining or drawing room, features twin windows overlooking Abercromby Place and an elegant marble fireplace. A second spacious double bedroom lies to the rear of the flat with views over extensive gardens. A third double bedroom, currently arranged as a dining room, opens off the hall and connects to a separate study/dressing room. A fourth bedroom offers further flexibility for guests or home-working.

The property retains a wealth of original period features including ornate cornicing, fireplaces and traditional sash-and-case windows. There are also two spacious, fully-lined, cellars. This is a rarely available, characterful New Town flat offering generous and adaptable accommodation in a sought-after city-centre location.

The property lies within five-minute's walk of central Edinburgh's abundant shopping establishments, boutiques, restaurants and bars. The newly-opened St James Quarter is also a short walk away.
