It affords all the light and space expected of a tenement home, with classical proportions and well-presented décor in a subtle colour palette. Adding further appeal is an attractive shared garden, and permit parking is available on the street. A good range of amenities and attractions are close by, and Waverley train station, along with the heart of the city, is easily accessible by foot.

The comfortably carpeted area promises a flexible space for lounge seating and dining furniture, neutrally decorated and filled with natural light from a large window capturing park views. Elegant cornicework and a central rose adorn the room, which is completed by handy recessed shelving.

Adjacent to the reception area is a contemporary kitchen, designed in earthy tones with oak-inspired units, an illuminated countertop, and a mosaic-patterned floor. It comes equipped with freestanding appliances, comprising an electric cooker, a washing machine, and a tall fridge freezer.

Quietly located to the rear of the property are two spacious bedrooms, with the largest room featuring built-in cupboard storage. Both rooms exude a relaxing ambience with delicate pastel décor and soft carpeting, complemented by a pleasant garden outlook. Finally, a bright bathroom is simply styled in all white, with a WC suite, a bath with an overhead shower, and a tiled surround heightened by decorative accents.

The property benefits from modern electric thermal heating and full double-glazing.

Externally, residents of the tenement share access to a large rear garden with a neatly tended lawn. On-street parking along Waverley Park falls under Zone N6.
