A timeless choice of new and old

An elegant show complex at 18 Murrayfield Road, right in the heart of the tranquil and leafy Murrayfield area of Edinburgh, has just opened.

The development will see 16 luxury apartments, including new-build and converted properties and a penthouse, created at the site.

As well as their exclusive address and the accompanying price tag, the development will also be age exclusive, open only to buyers aged 55 or above.

Eighteen Murrayfield Road by Lifestyle Living, as the development is called, comes from retirement home specialist, Mccarthy & Stone, but is aimed at the top end of the market.

Lorraine Paterson, sales and marketing director says: “This is a bespoke age-exclusive development that redefines apartment living for the buyer who is looking to embrace urban living in an exceptional worldclass location.

“As well as a choice of one and two-bedroomed new-build apartments and two-bedroomed conversions, our threebedroomed penthouse enjoys breath-taking panoramic views across the city skyline and is an exceptional property for one astute buyer.”

Each apartment includes fitted designer kitchens with integrated Siemens appliances, bespoke walk-in or fitted wardrobes and Villeroy & Boch sanitary ware.

The shared areas of the residence enjoy an equally impressive specification and mature gardens surround the properties. Each apartment has its own balcony or terrace.

The flats, which are priced from £440,000 to £1,130,000, might be the last word in luxury, but they also offer discreet ageappropriate practical features.

There is a secure video entry system and electric gate parking, and each apartment has a designated parking space.

The flats are low maintenance and cost effective, with underfloor heating, wheelchair access and lifts to all floors.

The building and exterior are maintained by a management team, while there is a roundthe-clock call system for added support.
