Plush Edinburgh townhouse on 'most sought after' street hits market for £1.9m

A rare opportunity to own a home on what is seen as ‘one of the most prestigious residential addresses’ in the capital has surfaced.

The four-bed Georgian townhouse is however being sold for a whopping £1.9m and may only be available with the aid of a winning lottery ticket.

Situated at 32 Ann Street, the home is part of a spectacular row of townhouses that were designed by the famous portrait artist Henry Raeburn.

The street, which contains homes that line either side of the cobbled road, was named after Raeburn’s wife.

It is understood that the row is the fifth most expensive street on average in Scotland’s capital and its aesthetic has been used as the backdrop of a number of filming shoots in the past.

There are multiple sitting rooms. (Retties.)

Advertised on Rightmove by Retties, the agents describe it as: “This A listed townhouse boasts an abundance of period features in its Georgian sash and case windows with working shutters, flagstone flooring, ornate cornice work and marble fireplaces.

“This handsome property benefits from two charming drawing rooms on the ground and first floor and enjoys picturesque views over Stockbridge and the New Town from the second-floor bedrooms.

There is an opportunity to modernise the property. (Retties.)

“The property sits on the doorstep of Stockbridge with its vibrant village atmosphere and excellent local amenities, Inverleith Park and the Royal Botanic Gardens.

“It is only a short walk to all the attractions in Edinburgh’s cosmopolitan city centre and lies within easy reach of the city’s major transport links.”

The ground level is made up of an entrance vestibule, a sitting room, kitchen/dining room and a bathroom.

Spacious kitchen. (Retties.)

The first floor level has a fantastic drawing room, the main bedroom with an en-suite as well as a bathroom for the whole family.

The second floor has two double bedrooms and a bathroom whilst the lower ground floor level has a study, a fourth bedroom, another bathroom and a pantry with utility cupboard.

There is also ample outdoor space with a landscaped front garden and a private rear patio garden.
