SIEZE the moment! If you want to live in contemporary luxury in the heart of a UNESCO World Heritage site within walking distance of every possible amenity and transport option, then Waverley Square in Edinburgh’s attractive old town is the place to be.
Part of the wider £240m New Waverley regeneration initiative, this development from Queensberry Properties features 66 apartments ranging in size from one to three bedrooms (many with private terraces) and all finished to an exceptional standard.
Still available, Plot 44, a galleried top floor apartment with double-height windows and an expansive living/dining/kitchen space.
There are two double bedrooms (one ensuite), and gallery space with the flexibility to create either a third bedroom or an office.
Plot 06 is a sleek three-bedroomed apartment spanning over 1367 sq ft, with an abundance of storage space - and Plot 26 is a two-bedroom apartment with an outdoor terrace accessed from the living /kitchen/ dining area.
The exterior of Waverley Square is also striking, featuring a strong mix of high-quality materials, including natural sandstone, metal and brick, with bi-fold shutters on balconies and a striking terracotta-coloured feature tower.
Hazel Davies, the firm’s sales and marketing director, comments: “Waverley Square is a luxury development in unique surroundings, close to everything that makes Edinburgh one of the most desirable cities in the world.
“From its proximity to the Scottish Parliament and the capital’s finest cultural and shopping districts, Waverley Square holds great appeal for buyers who demand a very high standard of living
“It is proving popular with international buyers and with those commuting between
Scotland and London, for whom the spaciousness of the apartments comes as a welcome surprise.”
A show apartment and unfurnished three-bedroomed walk-through apartment are open for viewing by appointment, while a virtual apartment system allows users to explore the location, properties and download particulars of Waverley Square from the comfort of their own home.
