Tour this incredible penthouse Edinburgh apartment built in former Donaldson's hospital site

There's a turret, a roof terrace, and views of Murrayfield Stadium - and that's before you discover the three bedrooms, kitchen and living areas.

This Edinburgh penthouse property is split over two levels within the former Donaldson's hospital site in West Coates - and it's truly stunning.

The 1851 A-listed Donaldson's Hospital building was designed by architect William Henry Playfair.  The building is built round a quadrangle in with large corner towers which themselves are each made up of four smaller towers.

The Tudor period style building has been converted into apartments, but the penthouse is the cream of the crop.

The vast double height living and formal dining area features an original bay window with shutters with views across the city.

And nestled within one of the building's iconic turrets is a study space, perfect for a quiet afternoon.

The three double bedrooms all benefit from built in wardrobes, whilst the master boasts a dressing room and luxurious en suite.

If all this isn't enough for you the second floor opens out to a private terrace with lots of entertaining space.

All of this doesn't come cheap, as the penthouse is on the market for close to £1.7million.
