Location
Situated within easy walking distance of the city centre, Ainslie Place is split into three parts forming a pair of handsome Georgian crescents, set round delightful central gardens linking the tranquil Moray Place to Randolph Crescent.
Set on the quieter south eastern section, where there is a blocked off cul de sac where permit parking is often less congested, the property is situated next to Moray Place, perhaps Edinburgh's most sought after New Town address and a fine example of Georgian architecture.
Residents can apply for access into the Moray Pleasure Grounds and further terraced gardens on the banks of the Water of Leith, for which there is a modest annual subscription.
Ainslie Place is close to the heart of the city centre and financial district whilst nearby Stockbridge offers an excellent range of local boutiques and restaurants.
There is also a good choice of private schools locally including the Edinburgh Academy, Fettes College, Erskine Stewart's Melville Schools and St George's School for Girls.
Description
22 Ainslie Place is a beautifully proportioned and elegant main door townhouse offering spacious, comfortable and flexible
accommodation set over the ground, first, second and third floors. With a beautiful cupola crowning the impressive original stone stair and both south-east and north-west aspects the property benefits from plenty of natural light throughout most of the day. The property successfully blends a range of modern fixtures and fittings with extensive period charm, with a variety of original features including the astragal windows, working shutters, timber flooring and stone stair, as well as the exquisite cornicing and marble mantelpieces. Overall, this is a fine example of a main door townhouse.
The front door opens to the entrance vestibule and through a glazed door to the hall, from where the principal living accommodation is accessed and the grand stair rises to the upper floors. The sitting room, which was originally the dining room, is situated to the front of the building and has two astragal windows overlooking Ainslie Place Gardens, while the breakfasting kitchen is set to the rear of the property. The kitchen is well appointed with solid wood units and granite work surfaces. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility room and cloakroom with WC.
The stair rises to the first floor where there is a particularly fine double reception room. The drawing room is situated to the front and has exceptional cornicing and an impressive marble mantelpiece, as well as a superb outlook over the gardens to the front. Double doors open to the dining room, which could also be used as an impressive bedroom, with a bath and shower room adjacent. Off the drawing room there is a study which could also be used as a sixth bedroom.
At second floor level, the principal bedroom is set to the front and again has fine views over Ainslie Place gardens. It also benefits from an en suite bath and shower room. There is a further, generously proportioned bedroom on this floor, as well as the principal family bathroom, and a utility room under the stair which leads up to the top floor. Here there are three further bedrooms and an additional family bath and shower room.
