Description
32/1 Stafford Street is an impressive and particularly spacious first-floor corner flat, occupying a prime position within a distinguished Georgian building in the heart of Edinburgh’s West End. Extending to almost 2000 sq ft, the property offers grandly proportioned accommodation throughout, with a wonderful balance of elegant period features and high-quality contemporary upgrades.
The flat is arranged around a welcoming central hall, which provides access to the principal rooms and immediately conveys the scale and classical proportions of the property. There are two outstanding public rooms, both of exceptional size and character. The dining room enjoys a rarely available corner position at the junction of Stafford Street and Melville Street and benefits from an open dual-aspect outlook through four large floor-to-ceiling sash windows. This space is ideally suited to both formal entertaining and everyday family use.
Complementing this is a magnificent sitting room of equally generous proportions, featuring sanded timber flooring, intricate cornicing, a feature fireplace, working shutters and access to a decorative cast-iron balcony. Both public rooms are flooded with natural light and exemplify the grandeur associated with Edinburgh’s Georgian architecture.
The kitchen is situated to the rear of the property and has been thoughtfully designed to accommodate modern living. It features an impressive central island, extensive wall and base units and high-quality appliances.
The accommodation includes three generous double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly noteworthy and benefits from a stylish, en suite bathroom, complete with a standalone bath. Two further double bedrooms offer excellent flexibility, alongside a modern shower room accessed from the hallway. A useful dressing room/store provides additional storage.
Throughout the flat, original features such as ornate cornicing, working fireplaces, traditional shutters and stripped timber floors are beautifully complemented by tasteful décor and contemporary finishes, resulting in a home of considerable character, comfort and refinement.
Location
Stafford Street is recognised as one of Edinburgh’s most distinguished residential addresses, forming part of the city’s celebrated Georgian New Town and unesco World Heritage Site. Set within the heart of the West End, the street is characterised by elegant period architecture and a notably calm atmosphere, while remaining superbly positioned for the very best of city living.
The commercial and cultural amenities of central Edinburgh are readily accessible. George Street, with its wide selection of high-end retailers, restaurants and cafés, lies approximately 0.7 miles to the east, while Princes Street(0.2 miles), Princes Street Gardens(0.3 miles) and the city’s principal theatres and galleries are within reach. The West End itself offers a refined choice of independent shops, restaurants and art galleries, and the nearby Water of Leith Walkway(0.5 miles) provides an attractive green route for walking and cycling.
The location is particularly well regarded for its proximity to some of Edinburgh’s most highly regarded schools. Excellent state options include Stockbridge Primary School (approximately 1 mile) and Broughton High School(1 mile). A number of leading private schools are also conveniently placed, such as The Edinburgh Academy (around 0.8 miles), Fettes College (approximately 1.2 miles) and Stewart’s Melville College (around 1.5 miles), reinforcing the area’s appeal to families and professional buyers alike.
Transport connections are exceptional. Haymarket Station is situated approximately 0.3 miles from the property and provides mainline rail services, along with access to the Edinburgh tram network, which offers a direct route to Edinburgh International Airport in around 30 minutes. Access to the City Bypass and motorway network is also straightforward, facilitating travel throughout central Scotland.
