The property has dual access either off the Lindsay Road main entrance door or via the rear access from the communal gardens, which are accessible from both Portland Row and Portland Gardens, using the secure key code entry system.

From Lindsay Road, accessed via secure entryphone system to the communal stairwell with both lift and stair access, the first floor flat opens onto the entrance hallway, granting access to all main rooms with the benefit of two built-in storage cupboards, along with the utility cupboard that has been plumbed for the washing machine and there is an additional purpose-built storage unit neatly encasing space for a washing machine and separate tumble-dryer. Handsome oak style flooring is laid throughout, creating a welcoming first impression and sets the tone for the attractive accommodation to follow.

Located at the end of the hallway, you step into the sociable heart of the home: the open plan living, dining, kitchen, which has been separated nicely into these three zones. This wonderfully bright room is purposefully divided by the kitchen island with overhanging breakfast bar, incorporating the integrated fridge and freezer units with additional space for a freestanding wine fridge (or storage). The kitchen unit hosts a selection of wall & base units along with a 5-burner gas hob paired with a stainless-steel splashback, extractor hood, integrated dishwasher and sink basin whilst also having ample work surfaces.

The French-doors off the kitchen afford access to the private, enclosed terrace at the rear – perfect for barbecuing and alfresco entertaining!

The living space has the large window overlooking the Quay side encasing the French doors, which lead out to the private balcony. The cleverly designed dining corner has built-in bench seating which also provides additional storage space within.

The master bedroom looks out towards the private terrace and comes with its own en-suite bathroom (with three-piece bathroom suite) and built-in wardrobes. The second double bedroom, again, comes with the built-in wardrobes and features the similar outlook as the master.

The recently upgraded mains shower room completes the property internally with walk-in shower unit, sink basin with storage below and toilet.

The property is efficiently heated by a gas central heating system with Worcester combi-boiler, and benefits from double-glazed windows throughout.

Externally, the property benefits from a private balcony and generously sized private terrace that is mainly laid to lawn with artificial grass along with paving stones. From the private terrace, there is direct access via the rear gate which leads out to the communal pathway and grants access to the expansive and beautifully maintained enclosed communal garden for the resident’s use. Access is also available via secure key code gate entry from Portland Gardens and Portland Row.

The apartment also enjoys access to the secure undercover parking with a private allocated space, accessed via remote control gate. There is additional unrestricted residents parking within the wider development.

Britannia Quay is situated approximately 15-20 minutes’ drive from Princes Street. The Shore is a vibrant and cosmopolitan suburb of the city and has, in recent years, become one of the most sought-after areas in Edinburgh.
