A new perspectiv­e on Edinburgh

With superb open views to the Edinburgh skyline, Pavilion offers exclusive city living in a secluded setting

-

Pavilion is a new developmen­t from AMA Homes, consisting of sixteen apartments in Inverleith, one of Edinburgh’s most prestigiou­s districts. It has already proved popular and only 4 two-bedroom and 5 three-bedroom apartments remain.

Designed by Richard Murphy Architects, the worldrenow­ned practice with 24 RIBA awards to its name, Pavilion sits at the east end of Kinnear Road, a wide cul-de-sac lined with large private houses and exclusive apartment blocks. Despite its city location it is surrounded by green space, from the playing fields of Edinburgh’s top public schools, to Inverleith Park and the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh.

The front elevation is stylish, understate­d and beautifull­y detailed, but it’s the rear of Pavilion which grabs the design headlines. Each apartment’s south facing elevation is fully glazed with patio doors opening out onto private balconies, terraces or gardens, designed to make the most of the stunning views across the playing fields to the majestic Edinburgh city centre skyline.

The interior of Pavilion is just as elegant as the exterior.

The living, dining and kitchen areas are contained in one large, open-plan space, around which family life can revolve. The south facing patio doors flood the area with light and can be opened wide to expand the space, offering the kind of indoor/outdoor living rarely available in modern apartments.

The fully-equipped kitchens and stylish bathrooms are individual­ly designed, as are the extensive built-in wardrobes which grace every bedroom. With underfloor heating, roomby-room temperatur­e control, thick wall insulation and high performanc­e double glazed windows, the apartments are also designed to be very energy efficient.

Despite the current restrictio­ns, you can still explore the beautiful show apartment and enjoy the magnificen­t views by taking a virtual tour online.
