Description

Springwell – Plot 42 – This second/ top floor, 1-bedroom apartment is an ideal option for a first time buyer, professional, couple or investor. The square entrance vestibule has space for coat hooks and shoe storage and steps take you down into the hallway, which has a small store. To the left off the hall is the double bedroom, with a south-facing window and fitted wardrobe, and the bathroom, with a shower bath and moveable screen for easy access.

The main room features an open plan kitchen, with stylish, fitted units and built-in appliances, and space for relaxed seating and a dining table. The room is dominated by the north-facing, feature window, which is part of the retained façade of the original Victorian building.

Sitting in established walled grounds on the intersection of Gorgie Road and Ardmillan Terrace, this former hospital has been restored and converted into spacious apartments. Contemporary additions complement the existing buildings and the Grade C listed exterior has been lovingly refurbished.

With a thriving community, excellent local shopping, sporting and leisure facilities, and great transport links to the city centre and the airport, railway and motorway networks, Springwell is ideally located to take advantage of all the capital has to offer.

There are frequent local bus services on your doorstep, and a 5 minute bus ride, or 15 minute walk, will get you to Haymarket Station, from where you can access the rail network and trams.

Edinburgh Airport, Edinburgh Bypass and the M8 to Glasgow are around a 20 minute drive away, and in 30 minutes you can be on the Queensferry Crossing heading north into Fife. If you’re more eco-minded, or just like to keep fit, Edinburgh has an ever expanding network of dedicated cycle paths and cycle friendly routes, which criss-cross the city and beyond. And while the nearby Union Canal may be the preserve of leisure users these days, the towpath is a popular route for walking, jogging or cycling commuters

Edinburgh is one of the UK’s premier shopping and entertainment destinations and a 12 minute bus ride gets you to the heart of the action. For the weekly shop, Sainsbury’s, Aldi, Lidl and Coop are all within a 10 minute walk and there are a range of smaller shops, cafes and restaurants in Gorgie and Dalry. The nearby Fountainpark is an entertainment hub, with a range of facilities including an Imax cinema, gym, bowling alley, casino and a range of restaurants and bars.

There are 8 golf courses within a 15 minute drive and a range of other sports facilities within a 10 minute cycle. And, if watching sport’s your thing, then Hearts’ Tynecastle Stadium is nearby and Murrayfield Stadium is just a 20 minute walk away.
