3 Bedroom Duplex

Part of the prestigious New Town conservation area, this three-bedroom double-upper apartment is an exclusive city centre residence in the very heart of the capital, just moments from George Street and Princes Street. The stunning property occupies the top (third and fourth) floors of a classical A-listed Georgian building (circa 1790), combining period grandeur with flawless interiors finished to an exceptionally high standard. Showcasing all the hallmarks of Georgian architecture, it features impressively large rooms with high ceilings and traditional 12-pane sash windows that ensure a flood of natural light.

Exquisite modern styling and a wealth of premium finishes elevate the property further, creating a unique and breath taking home. The accommodation includes a high-specification dining kitchen, family bathroom, and two en-suites, and the apartment has the rare benefit (in the city centre) of a private parking space. In addition, for a modest fee and application, residents may secure access to the private Charlotte Square Gardens — another highly desirable feature.

The historic building has an imposing sandstone ashlar façade, notable for its regal doorpiece and Georgian fanlight. Stepping inside, the communal entrance immediately sets the tone, with its striking interior design and soaring ceiling hinting at the calibre of the home itself. The apartment continues this strong first impression with its own beautiful reception hall, enjoying warm contemporary décor and a rich oak floor that flows seamlessly into the living area and kitchen.

Lovingly styled, the living room is centred around a majestic fireplace (with a living gas flame) which adds another layer of elegance to the sumptuous decoration. The room has spacious dimensions for various lounge furnishings and it has comfortable seating fitted by the southwest facing dormer window, which sees a cascade of natural light whilst offering iconic skyline views. Extending the space further, partition doors slide open to the adjacent dining kitchen, creating a flow between the two rooms that is perfect for entertaining family and friends.

The dining kitchen is stylishly appointed with granite worksurfaces and generous cabinet storage in a cream-gloss finish with wood-toned accents. It is a highly effective design which offers practicality and sophistication, meeting the expectations found throughout. A full suite of integrated Siemens appliances further streamlines the aesthetic. In addition, the space is large enough to host a breakfast table by the sash window and a dining table (set beside fitted bench seating) – a wonderful setup for casual meals, dinner parties, and special occasions alike.

Occupying the entire fourth floor, the principal bedroom is a lavish retreat inspired by a boutique hotel. It features carefully curated styling and an impressive amount of floorspace, in addition to generous fitted shelving and abundant wardrobe storage with mirrored fronts. From its vantage point, it also offers far-reaching views over the Firth of Forth towards Fife. Providing the owners with additional luxury, this magnificent space is accompanied by a large five-piece en-suite bathroom which offers a spa-like experience. It features twin floating washbasins below illuminated mirrored units, a hidden-cistern toilet, a double shower enclosure, and a deep, relaxing bathtub.

Bedrooms two and three are on the third floor, both continuing the impeccable standards and both offering spacious double proportions. Comparable in quality to the principal suite, the second bedroom enjoys its own contemporary en-suite shower room and charming views across Edinburgh’s historic skyline. Its dormer window, complete with bespoke fitted seating, creates a perfect spot to relax and watch the world drift by.

Upon application and for a small yearly fee, homeowners can gain access to Charlotte Square Gardens which are shared exclusively by members. Designed by the celebrated architect Robert Adam in 1791, this private garden is a haven of calm in the bustle of the capital, offering a massive stretch of manicured lawn framed by mature trees. There are other notable private gardens in the New Town that residents can apply to as well. In addition, the property has a private parking space to the rear and controlled permit parking is also available (Zone 1A).
