1 bed cottage to rent

Gloucester Lane, New Town EH3

Video attached! Recent conversion of a 19th-century coach house into a unique, stunning, industrial style one-bedroom mezzanine flat located in an historic cobbled lane in the New Town.

Discreetly set back from the lane by a private forecourt, the coach house is entered through traditional stable doors opening to reveal a dramatic steel-framed glass screen and a double-height ceiling sitting area. Designed in an industrial style, the flat offers a wealth of stripped-back features, such as the original stone flags (now with underfloor heating), bare stone walls, bare brick, exposed steel beams, a suspended steel staircase and a wood-burning stove with exposed flue rising to the roof. The kitchen is finished to the highest specification, including the stunning, volcanic-coloured Dekton Trilium countertop and all appliances. At the rear of the ground floor, the large tiled wet room further enhances an urban feel.

The sheer height and spaciousness of the flat are best appreciated from the mezzanine bedroom behind its glass balustrade. This space is flooded with light from the many windows, all with remote-controlled blinds. Outside, the cobbled forecourt provides private car parking.

Gloucester Lane is a picturesque 19th-century mews lane in the historic New Town, a World Heritage Site. It is only a short walk downhill to village-like Stockbridge, with its many speciality shops, bistros and bars, and also uphill to Queen Street, George Street and the rest of the city centre, including Waverley Station, and trams and buses. Also within walking distance are the picturesque Water of Leith walkway and the Botanic Gardens. There is excellent road access with easy links to the A1 and A90.
