Fairytale Edinburgh Victorian penthouse hits the market with top floor balcony

A fairytale four-bedroom penthouse flat in one of Edinburgh's most highly sought-after postcodes has hit the market.

The Victorian villa at 15/2 Oswald Road, The Grange, is enough for anyone to up-sticks and leave their current pad, boasting a top-floor balcony, four spacious double bedrooms and three bathrooms.

The aesthetics of the building are incredibly pleasing when considering the exterior, but casting your eyes inside will reveal a more modern setup with built-in kitchen appliances and double-glazed windows.

On sale for £650,000, any potential buyer would need to have extremely deep pockets and a fair bit of cash behind them, but opportunities such as this are few and far between.

Describing the home in all its glory, Savills say: "15/2 Oswald Road is a particularly elegant and spacious penthouse flat situated in the prestigious and sought after Grange area of the City. The property perfectly blends period charm and character with modern sensibilities and function."

The spacious living room forms the centrepiece of the whole flat. (Savills)

It's hard to argue, as the living room forms the centrepiece of the penthouse and is the perfect place for family time and to un-wind after a stressful day. Darting off in four different directions are all four bedrooms and the spacious kitchen located next to bedroom four.

Savills continue: "Carrying on up, the staircase terminates at a welcoming and spacious landing off which the primary accommodation is located. To the left is the impressive turret room with it's huge vaulted ceiling, which is currently used as a dining room but offers flexible space.

The property includes a second-floor balcony with incredible views of the hills beyond. (Savills)

"To the right of the landing is the breakfasting kitchen, offering ample space for storage and food preparation and featuring marble worktops, a Belfast sink, integrated electric oven and microwave as well as a five ring gas hob.

"Adjacent to the kitchen is the family room / snug which features a gas fire. This room has also been used as a fourth bedroom."

Both the principal and second bedroom are equipped with incredible amounts of storage space as well as well appointed en-suite shower rooms. To the south of the property and looking out into the distance, a balcony patio flooring and outdoor seating finishes off the property in a unique style.
