Howe Street — Howe Street

Occupying the first floor of an elegant Georgian building on one of Edinburgh’s most desirable New Town addresses, this exceptional flat is a wonderfully spacious and beautifully proportioned city residence extending to approximately 1,900 sq ft. The accommodation is arranged around a generous hall and showcases many of the hallmarks of its period, including impressive ceiling heights, ornate cornicing, fine fireplaces and tall sash and case windows which flood the principal rooms with natural light. Of particular note are the two superb reception rooms to the front, both of excellent scale and offering a wonderful balance of formal character and everyday comfort. The sitting room is especially striking, with decorative plasterwork and a handsome fireplace creating an elegant focal point, while the substantial living/dining room provides an outstanding space for entertaining. To the rear, the kitchen/breakfast room is well appointed with contemporary cabinetry and ample space for informal dining. The bedroom accommodation is equally impressive, with two generous double bedrooms, including a particularly spacious principal bedroom and a second bedroom with en suite shower room. A third bedroom, or ideal study, adds further flexibility and would suit a variety of requirements including home working or guest accommodation. A family bathroom completes the layout. This is a fine example of a classic Edinburgh Georgian flat, combining scale, period detail and versatility in a prime central setting. View payable LBTT Calculator for this property
