2 Beds

A highly appealing main door, two-bedroom split-level flat extending to approximately 77 sq m (828.8 sq ft), quietly positioned on the ever-popular Iona Street in the heart of Leith. The property is presented in good order throughout and enjoys the rare advantage of direct access to the communal garden, creating a wonderful blend of indoor and outdoor living.

The private main door entrance leads into a welcoming hallway which provides access to the principal accommodation on the ground floor. The bright and generously proportioned lounge/dining room forms the heart of the home and offers excellent space for both relaxing and entertaining, with a pleasant outlook and easy flow into the well-appointed kitchen. The kitchen is thoughtfully arranged with ample storage and worktop space and is ideally positioned for everyday living.

Stairs descend to the lower level where the accommodation becomes more private and restful. The principal bedroom is a comfortable double and enjoys direct access out to the communal rear garden, a particularly attractive feature rarely found in similar properties. A second well-proportioned double bedroom is located to the front, while a modern shower room and additional hallway storage complete the accommodation.

Situated in one of Leith’s most desirable residential pockets, the property benefits from immediate access to a wide range of independent cafés, restaurants, shops and excellent transport links. The Shore, Leith Walk and the city centre are all within easy reach, making this an ideal home for professionals, couples or small families seeking stylish city living with outdoor space.
