18 Spottiswoode Road is a charming and spacious main door apartment set in the popular area of Marchmont. The property boasts generous accommodation: a large, bright living room featuring a bay window and a working fireplace with original tilework and oak mantelpiece; an extensive kitchen with direct access to a quiet, leafy communal garden; a utility room with Belfast sink; a well-equipped bathroom with shower over bathtub, and a large, peaceful double bedroom to the rear. The flat also benefits from a separate box room, currently utilised as a second bedroom, with elevated cabin-bed and dressing room.
Having been well maintained throughout, this lovely property is in walk-in condition. It has sash and case windows, elegant cornicing, original floorboards and carpeted living room, bedroom and box room. There is ample storage, both under-floor and under-stair.
In addition to the communal back green, there is a mature, south-facing, private front garden, with trees and plants attracting a rich diversity of bird life and creating a small oasis amongst the traditional tenement architecture.
The location is truly unsurpassable, being a stone’s throw from the beautiful Meadows, a range of local shops, the university, and only a short walk to the city centre and its many cultural highlights. The nearby suburbs of Bruntsfield and Morningside offer further options for shopping and entertainment. Marchmont is well connected to other parts of the city via a range of bus routes.
This gem of a flat would make a comfortable home or an excellent pied-à-terre in a much sought after locality.
