SITUATION

Drummond Place is a wonderful example of New Town architecture, being of classical square design on the north, west and south sides and crescent shaped on the east, with a large and attractive mature garden area enclosed in the middle. Built in the early 1800s this established residential area has proved to be extremely popular, due to its excellent central location and first class amenities. The area is close to an excellent and wide choice of shops, including a main Tesco store at nearby Canonmills. Broughton Street, only a couple of minutes walk away, is a thriving area with a wealth of local delicatessens, coffee shops, boutiques, bars and restaurants. Also very conveniently closeby are St Andrew Square, George Street and Princes Street, with Harvey Nichols, Jenners, John Lewis as well as many other specialist shops on the doorstep. The Royal Botanical Gardens, Inverleith Park, Glenogle Baths, Drummond Tennis Club and the Water of Leith Walkway are also within easy walking distance of the property. Bus services operate on a regular basis to and from the city centre and to the surrounding areas. Waverley Train Station is under ten minutes walk away and is easily accessible, as is the city by pass ensuring swift access to outlying districts, Edinburgh International Airport and the main motorway networks. There are good local schools close by both private and public.

DESCRIPTION
