Steel's Place

Morningside, Edinburgh, EH10

Tenure: Freehold

Forming part of a traditional tenement building on a no-through road right in the heart of Morningside, this main-door ground-floor flat offers two bedrooms, a large reception room, a kitchen, and two bathrooms, all presented with modern fixtures and fittings, tasteful décor, and a wealth of period features. Externally, the flat enjoys access to a shared garden and on-street permit parking.

The flat’s front door is approached via a gated, low-maintenance front garden area, where adding a small ramp would make it wheelchair accessible, and you are welcomed inside by an airy, high-ceilinged hall with built-in storage, attractively presented with neutral décor and handsome wood flooring. To the right of the hall lies a living and dining room, with plenty of space for layouts of lounge furniture, all arranged around a homely fireplace, with a nook offering space for a dining table and chairs. The room is elegantly decorated in pared-back neutral tones, enhanced by wood flooring, a dado rail, beautifully detailed cornicing, and a ceiling rose. Along the hall in the kitchen, modern white wall and base cabinets are accompanied by spacious worktops, splashback tiling, and integrated appliances comprising a double oven, a hob, an extractor fan, a wine cooler, and a dishwasher. An open cupboard houses a freestanding fridge/freezer, whilst space and plumbing is available for a washing machine in the hallway, and the kitchen further benefits from garden access.

The flat enjoys two wonderfully bright and spacious double bedrooms, both elegantly decorated and carpeted for comfort. The larger bedroom is situated to the rear of the property with direct access to the garden, and it is supplemented by excellent built-in storage. Finally, a bathroom and separate wet room complete the accommodation on offer, with the former featuring a bath and a WC-suite, and the latter comprising a rainfall showerhead and basin. The home is kept warm by a gas central heating system. 

Externally, the flat enjoys access to a shared rear garden, whilst controlled parking on Steel’s Place falls under Zone S2.
