A charming ground floor one bedroom flat situated in the vibrant Stockbridge colonies next to the Water of Leith

Description
5 Balmoral Place is a charming ground floor colony flat in a wonderful location that benefits from a vibrant village atmosphere, while situated in the heart of Stockbridge in Edinburgh City.

The property has its own front garden and main door entrance. The bright and lively sitting / dining room is a pleasant space to relax or entertain, with an arched recess perfectly suited to house a dining table and chairs, or a home office. An south-west facing original sash and case window, complete with original shutters, draws plenty of light in and has a wonderful view out to the garden. There is a warmth generated by the original wooden flooring, which continues throughout the property.

The modern kitchen has attractive integrated floor and wall based units with wooden worktops, and there is space for a full sized fridge freezer. The bedroom overlooks the private garden to the front and there is a shower room accessed via the hallway. The bedroom benefits from a large window that brings in plenty of sunshine, and similar to the sitting room, are the original sash and case windows, complete with their shutters.

To complete the property the garden at the front has a sociable patio and garden bursting with greenery. Permit parking is available on street (subject to a fee).

Location
5 Balmoral Place is located in the Stockbridge Colonies, a tranquil haven sandwiched between the parish church and the Royal Botanical Garden. The Water of Leith winds its way through the middle of these two landmarks, curving around the northern and western sides of the Colonies. The Colonies are a testament to the rise of the skilled labour market in Edinburgh during the 19th century and are a key element of Edinburgh’s social history.

As part of the Cosmopolitan suburb of Stockbridge, the property benefits from a strong sense of community, including a local library and the Glenogle Swim Centre. The village atmosphere thrives through the weekly Farmers market (within 0.3 miles) and the annual Duck Race. It has a wonderful choice of galleries, gift and specialist food shops, bistros, pubs, and restaurants. The Waitrose on Comely Bank Road is in the near vicinity. Additionally, Dean Village is a delightful walk along the Water of Leith, which also winds its way to an abundance of open space in Inverleith Park.

There is excellent catchment to a number of local state and public schools, including Stockbridge Primary School and Broughton High School. The bus service regularly runs to the city centre, which is also easily walkable.

Square Footage: 537 sq ft
