Flat for sale in Eglinton Crescent, West End, Edinburgh EH12

Immaculately presented and wonderfully bright first floor drawing room apartment with spacious, flexible and elegant accommodation of over 1500 sqft

Description
19.1 Eglinton Crescent presents a fantastic opportunity to acquire a rarely available, drawing room flat on desirable street in the West End of Edinburgh. The flat is situated on the preferred first floor of an elegant Victorian building and is entered via a beautiful, well-maintained communal entrance hall.

The front door opens into the welcoming hallway from which the accommodation flows.

Of particular note is the impressive drawing room boasting an east facing bay window, enjoying an outlook over the central residents gardens. The room is flooded with natural light and maintains a lot of its original charm with high ceilings, ornate cornicing and plasterwork, as well as central fireplace.

A door off the drawing room provides access to the hallway which is currently being used as the dining room. This is an exceptional space for receiving and entertaining. The configuration of the two rooms flows well, with the glass panelling allowing light from the bay window to flood into the heart of the property.

There are two double bedrooms in the property, each generous in size. The principal bedroom is located to the rear of the property and benefits from its own en-suite shower room. Bedroom two sits to the front and has useful built in storage space.

The modern and contemporary kitchen has been finished to a high specification with tiling, fully fitted integrated appliances, and a number of wall and base units. A spiral stair case provides access to the office/family room which offers flexible accommodation in that it could also be used as a further bedroom.

Completing the accommodation is the family bathroom located off the hallway, along with a useful cupboard space.

Residents may apply for parking permits and for use of the lovely central gardens, which have recently seen significant new planting and are the result of a very active community.
