About This Home
Back in the Georgian times when Edinburgh's New Town was built, Dundas Street was built as a street full of tenement flats or apartments as we may call them now rather than houses. It was very forward thinking. The flats share a communal stairway and then you'll open the front door of this home and marvel at the scale. Those Georgians knew how to build brilliant homes! They are filled with high ceilings, huge windows, fine architectural details and they feel huge.
In this excellent home, the rooms are arranged off a large hallway with a stone flag floor. There's a magnificent drawing room with two large comfy sofas and a dining table to seat 6 comfortably. The kitchen is well equipped for dining at home (there are some excellent food shops on Dundas Street) and has a breakfast bar too.
For sleeping, you'll find four lovely bedrooms. There is a superking bed in the master bedroom, a kingsize bed in Bedroom 2 and a double in Bedroom 3. Bedroom 4 is a superking mezzanine bed with safe steps leading up to it. There are two shower rooms off the hallway which can be accessed by all guests.
This is a really comfortable, elegant home which is perfect for gathering friends or family together and you'll have a great time staying here.

Home Truths
One of the four bedrooms has a mezzanine superikng bed. It has a very good, safe staircase leading unto it, but it may not be a good option for very young children.

Central New Town
The Central New Town spans from Scotland Street in the East to Randolph Crescent in the West and from Princes Street in the South to Brandon Terrace in the North. It encompasses most of Edinburgh’s beautiful and enviable Georgian New Town.
In 1766 James Craig, aged 27, entered a competition to design a New Town to ease overcrowding in the Old Town. There were six entries and he won. His plan was for St Andrew Square and Charlotte Square, Princes Street, George Street and Queen Street and was presented to King George III in 1767. Edinburgh’s New Town is now world famous and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1995. The Georgian New Town is known for its graceful sweeping crescents, wide streets and private central gardens. The beautiful stone buildings have large astragal windows that we love to peep in on a winters evening to see what lies inside. The architectural details and high ceilings in Edinburgh’s New Town put Bath to shame. The architectural highlights are Charlotte Square, Moray Place and Heriot Row.
