7 St Bernards Crescent is an exceptional Georgian townhouse and without doubt one of the finest examples in the New Town. The property is set over four floors and offers flexible living and entertaining spaces while providing exceptional light throughout much of the day, further enhanced by the spectacular cupola crowning the impressive stone stair.  


Now requiring modernising, the house exudes elegance with exceptional proportions throughout and some of the finest period features, from the extensive and delicate plasterwork and cornicing, delightful architraves, the charming stairwell, and magnificent mantelpieces.

Summary of Accommodation:


Of particular note is the breathtaking triple windowed drawing room on the first floor, which has a glorious outlook over the central gardens, and opens through original timber doors to what is now used as the dining room. It is a quite magnificent reception space flooded with light from both sides of the house. This room includes beautiful cornicing, original floorboards and marble mantelpiece with a charming wrought iron balcony to the front also. There is a further sitting room on the ground floor with two windows overlooking the central gardens, a marble mantelpiece and delightful cornicing. The kitchen is situated on the first floor, adjacent to the dining room, but could potentially be relocated to the ground or lower ground floors, subject to the necessary consents, if desired. The bedrooms are all generous in proportion and are situated principally on the second floor. The principal bedroom has a dressing room leading to an ensuite bathroom while the other two bedrooms are served by the family bathroom. There is excellent storage throughout the house as well as a guest WC and cloakroom on the ground floor, and a utility room on the half-landing between ground and first floors.


Additionally, there is a self-contained, but fully integral lower ground floor flat. Here there is a spacious sitting room in what was originally the kitchen, as well as a dining kitchen, two further double bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of which is ensuite.


There are 3 full-height under pavement cellars below the front pavement. To the rear of the house there is a beautiful walled garden, bordered with a range of mature plants , shrubs and trees providing wonderful colour.
