USP Throw a shape

Bank House, 3 Allan Park Road, in Craiglockhart, Edinburgh, is part of a contemporary modern development which is a little bit different.

The main-door duplex apartment is part of a wedge-shaped building and the unusual dimensions are reflected on the inside as well as the striking exterior of the building. The apartment is over two floors. The downstairs is largely openplan, with a sitting room with a dual aspect, a kitchen and dining room housed in a pentagonal room, plus an entrance hall, downstairs WC and utility room.

Upstairs the main bedroom has a similarly interesting shape, while the ensuite shower room, second bedroom and bathroom are more uniformly rectangular.

The property is in easy reach of a variety of amenities and it has an area of private landscaped garden at the front and side.

The interior is bright and stylish, with an abundance of storage in the form of fitted wardrobes and cupboards.

Craiglockhart is a few miles southwest of the city centre and offers a variety of excellent local amenities. It is also within easy access of Napier university.

Nearby Morningside Road and Bruntsfield Place offer speciality shops, restaurants and bistros and there are good bus services to the city centre.
