About this property
Exceptional city living with breathtaking views. Sleeps 4.
Welcome to Simpson Loan [429], a stunning sixth-floor apartment boasting an unrivalled location in the very heart of Edinburgh. Overlooking the iconic Meadows and offering far-reaching views towards the Pentland Hills, this beautifully appointed home is part of the award-winning Quartermile development — a stylish fusion of luxury living, vibrant cafés, and historic architecture, all set within the grounds of the former Edinburgh Royal Infirmary.
Living Space Step into a spacious open-plan living area, where sleek contemporary design meets ultimate comfort. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with natural light and perfectly frame the spectacular city and park views — an ideal spot to relax with a morning coffee or unwind after a day exploring the capital.
The living space includes a dedicated dining area and a cutting-edge kitchen fully equipped with everything you need to dine in style. Integrated appliances, including an electric hob, oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge, freezer, and washer/dryer. Stay connected and entertained with complimentary WiFi and a Smart TV.
Two Elegant Bedrooms The apartment comfortably sleeps up to four guests across two generous double bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed with comfort and practicality in mind.
The master bedroom features a super king-size bed, built-in wardrobes, and a sleek en-suite shower room. The second bedroom includes a king-size bed and built-in storage, offering a peaceful retreat for additional guests.
Please note: Hypoallergenic bedding is not provided.
Bathroom In addition to the master bedroom en-suite shower room, there's a luxurious family bathroom complete with a full-size bath and separate walk-in shower - ideal for relaxing at the end of the day.
Prime Location A private parking space is included — a rare and valuable benefit in central Edinburgh. Quartermile is one of the city’s most desirable residential areas, just a 10-15 minute walk from Edinburgh Castle, the Royal Mile, and the bustling Old Town.
Within the development, you’ll find a Sainsbury's, Starbucks, and Söderberg — a Swedish coffee shop and bakery — so you only need to step out of your front door to enjoy great food or a hot morning coffee.
