Inverleith Row is an exceptional detached Georgian residence, discreetly set back from the road on one of Edinburgh's most coveted addresses. The property has been extensively renovated and now presents as a substantial six-bedroom family home, offering over 6,000 square feet of impeccably finished and adaptable living space, arranged across three expansive and thoughtfully designed levels.
The property has been comprehensively refurbished to an exacting standard by the current owners, seamlessly blending classical period detail with modern-day convenience. The elegant stone-built façade sets the tone for the interiors within, where high ceilings, intricate cornicing, and large sash and case windows allow natural light to pour through the well-proportioned rooms. Every element has been considered to create a home of exceptional quality.
The principal living accommodation includes an impressive drawing room, formal sitting room, and study, offering flexible options for entertaining, home working or quiet retreat. At the heart of the home is a magnificent open-plan kitchen and breakfast room, designed for both everyday family life and more formal occasions, and complemented by a charming bar or morning room.
There are six generously sized double bedrooms in total, thoughtfully arranged across the upper and lower levels. Most benefit from en-suite bath or shower rooms, including a particularly fine principal suite. A second study, numerous
store rooms, and a dedicated utility area provide further practicality.
The lower ground floor enjoys its own private access, making it perfectly suited for guest accommodation, extended family living, or ancillary use. Here, two additional double bedrooms, second kitchen, sitting room, family bathroom and ensuite W/C with large storeroom, adding a further layer of flexibility to the property's already impressive offering.
To the rear, a beautifully maintained west-facing garden offers a peaceful and private sanctuary. Framed by mature planting and trees, it backs directly onto the Royal Botanic Gardens, providing a spectacular natural outlook and a rare degree of seclusion in such a central setting.
A private driveway to the front leads to an integral garage ensuring excellent off-street parking and secure storage. Additional amenities include a boiler room, and numerous utility and storage spaces, all contributing to the extensive and well-considered specification.
This is a rare and remarkable property that effortlessly combines timeless architectural grandeur with contemporary comfort, in one of Edinburgh's most prestigious and desirable neighborhoods.
