Location

Heriot Row is located in the heart of Edinburgh's New Town which was built in the late 18th and early 19th century to a layout based on plans by James Craig.

The street was completed by 1808 as part of the development by the Earl of Moray.

Overlooking Queen Street Gardens the property is within a few hundred metres of Princes Street and is particularly well located for all amenities in the city centre with excellent shopping in George Street and a lovely selection of small boutiques, restaurants and bars in nearby Stockbridge.

The main financial centre is situated less than a mile away in the West End, as are the Tram terminus and both Waverley and Haymarket train stations.

Many of the city's schools are also located within a mile or two, including The Edinburgh Academy, George Heriots, Erskine Stewart's Melville Schools and Fettes College.
