In 1894, Sir James Steel, then Edinburgh’s most prominent builder, acquired a 33-acre site between Queensferry Road and Comely Bank, transforming it into an attractively laid-out estate of four-storey tenements. Comely Bank Road, forming the estate’s northern boundary, is a natural extension of Raeburn Place, the main thoroughfare of Stockbridge—a historic, charming, and highly desirable area of Edinburgh.

79/6 Comely Bank Road is a beautifully presented third-floor two-bedroom flat. A secure entrance at street level leads to a traditional communal stairway, guiding you to the flat’s own front door. The hallway is welcoming, featuring a wooden boarded floor, dado rail, and a handy built-in cupboard, and provides access to all principal rooms.

The generous living room boasts a bay window overlooking Comely Bank Road and offers views of Fettes College, “undeniably one of Scotland’s greatest buildings.” Period features include a wooden boarded floor, dado rail, corniced ceiling, traditional fireplace with flame gas fire, and an attractive arched alcove.

The bright kitchen, overlooking the rear garden, is spacious enough for a dining table and chairs. It is fitted with floor and wall-mounted storage, work surfaces with tiled splashbacks, and a combination of integrated, slot-in, and freestanding appliances. A large box room, benefitting from borrowed south-facing light via a high-level internal window, provides an ideal home office.

Accommodation is completed by two comfortable double bedrooms, the master with a built-in cupboard, and a naturally lit, tiled bathroom with a three-piece suite and shower over the bath. As a top-floor flat, it also benefits from substantial attic space, currently used for storage but with potential for alternative uses.

Modern comforts include a recently installed combi gas-fired central heating boiler and upgraded electrical wiring. Double glazing is fitted to the front windows, and residents have access to a communal rear garden.

Area:
Comely Bank Road is located on the western boundary of Stockbridge. The local shopping in Stockbridge is excellent, there is also both a bank and a post office as well as a choice of fashionable and popular restaurants, bars and coffee shops and the weekly Sunday Market with its popularity is a great bonus.

Comely Bank has a Waitrose, while Craigleith Retail Park has an M&S food hall, and a Sainsbury’s. The flat is within walking distance, or a short bus journey, of Princes Street and George Street and the rest of the city centre with all it has to share.
The Dean Tennis & Squash Club, The Grange Club and Glenogle Swimming Baths offer high standards of sporting and recreational facilities and the Water of Leith walkway, Inverleith Park and the Royal Botanic Garden are all nearby.

The neighbourhood is well catered for with public transport and Haymarket, with the benefit of a tram stop, and a railway station are within easy reach. The City By-pass, Edinburgh International Airport and the wider central Scotland motorway network are all easily accessed.
