    About this property

    • 2/4 York Lane is a well-proportioned, two bedroom, top-floor apartment close to excellent amenities in an incredibly desirable New Town location. The setting offers a mix of modern and traditional within a development partially created from the conversion of St Mary's Cathedral School, which was completed in 2001.

      The property is accessed via a well-maintained communal entrance stair with secure phone system off the gated courtyard area. Entering the property, the bright hallway leads to the living and dining space. Windows flood the space with light and provide a wonderful area to relax and enjoy meals.

      Set off the living room is the kitchen that can be closed off when cooking if desired or opened up to give a flow for entertaining and conversation. The kitchen is functional with a neutral design and also benefits from large windows to draw in natural light throughout the day.

      The principal bedroom is generous with built in wardrobe storage and room for freestanding furniture. The second room is also a double with a built in wardrobe but could also make a spacious office for those working from home looking for a separate work area.

      Completing the apartment is a well appointed bathroom with bath and shower.

      Residents qualify for subscription access to the beautiful East Queen Street private gardens, subject to application.
