96 Inverleith Place is a spacious “C” Listed late Victorian villa of traditional sandstone construction under a pitched roof. It provides exceptional views in one of Edinburgh’s most sought after residential streets. The property offers comfortable and flexible family accommodation extending to 4347 sq ft with the additional benefit of secure off-street parking, a double garage and private gardens to the front and rear. In January 2010 the current occupiers secured Planning Permission and Listed Building Consent to replace the existing garage with a triple garage and games room above, as well as to create a Conservatory to the rear of the building. The details of the application can be viewed at http://citydev-portal.edinburgh.gov.uk/publicaccess/tdc/tdc_home.aspx using the reference number 09/02744/FUL.

Internally the property retains a number of fine features of the period including the superb timber staircase with spacious landings, decorative cornice work, stripped flooring, archways, timber sash and case windows and restored fireplaces. From the upper floors there are impressive views over Inverleith Park towards Edinburgh Castle to the south and open views over playing field to the Firth of Forth to the north.
