McEwan Fraser Legal are proud to present to the market these unique one bedroom boutique apartments, forming part of a historic residence on Dalkeith's High Street, namely 'No. 1 Edinburgh Road'.

These luxury boutique one bedroom apartments are set within the former historic residence given to the bank manager. This bank once operated at the ground floor level, situated below this residence.

This grand building is situated in the very heart of Dalkeith town centre and has many of the period features that once made it the most exclusive address in the centre.

Internally, no expense has been spared with the inclusion of solid wood worktops, real wood flooring throughout the living areas and kitchens, luxury deep pile carpets throughout the hallways and bedrooms, under-floor heating in all of the bathrooms and energy efficient panel heating. If this wasn't enough, the quality Cooke & Lewis fitted kitchens also benefit from; Bosch oven/hob and extractor hoods as well as integrated fridge, freezer, dishwasher and washer/dryers. The facade of the building has been beautifully restored and careful attention has been made to try and showcase the mix of old and new in the interior whilst also being sympathetic to the building's former nature.
