The Grange
The Grange sits among some of Edinburgh's most sought-after southside neighbourhoods, bordered by Morningside, Southside/Newington and Liberton/Gilmerton. It's a settled, leafy part of the city known for its handsome period homes and quiet residential feel, while still keeping you close to everyday amenities. You'll find a good spread of shops, cafés and restaurants nearby, particularly around Morningside and Newington, plus strong healthcare provision across the surrounding areas, with multiple hospitals, GP practices and pharmacies all within easy reach.
Families are well served here. George Watson's College and James Gillespie's High School sit close by, alongside well-regarded primaries in Morningside and Newington, making this a popular choice for those wanting good schooling without leaving the city. Transport relies mainly on buses and road links rather than rail, though the City Centre's railway stations and tram connections to the airport are within reach for anyone needing to travel further afield. Living costs tend to run close to or below the UK average on transport and groceries, even though council tax is higher given the area's desirability.
Across the surrounding neighbourhoods, the common thread is a strong sense of settled, family-friendly living, backed by excellent air quality and good green space, from Liberton's 18 parks to the open ground around Duddingston Loch. The Grange itself benefits from this wider mix, offering the quiet, established character of Morningside combined with the convenience and cultural pull of the city centre and Southside, making it a strong option for professionals and families alike who want space, good schools and easy access to Edinburgh's amenities.
