LOCATION & ABOUT THE FLAT
A beautiful, spacious light filled Victorian property right on the doorsteps of the Meadows (in the Old Town) in Marchmont Crescent...one of the most sought after, safe neighbourhoods in Edinburgh. Currently there are three female tenants in the flat.
ABOUT ME
I own the place and am based in Australia; sometimes for short periods, I come to EDI to tend to property and other matters. I am a professional working in the technology sector and I write and illustrate kids books. I enjoy running and reading.
WHY I OPEN MY PLACE FOR OTHERS
I got to Edinburgh 20 years ago as a student; I lived here for 9 years and ever since have lived mostly overseas. and have travelled extensively. And I still feel that Edinburgh is one of the best places to live for short or long term. So it gives me great pleasure to welcome the right people in my flat, especially if it will be your first home in Edinburgh!

"After deciding to relocate my life to Edinburgh, I didn’t know what to expect. I’m pleased to share that I’m glad I decided to start my new journey at Marchmont Crescent. My stay was comfortable, convenient and friendly. The flat came furnished with all the amenities I needed and is also well situated near a Scotmid and Sainsbury, making grocery shopping super easy. I also got to make new friends with my flatmates which made my move to Edinburgh a most pleasant experience. The owner was also really accommodating and ensured that our needs were met. In all, I am happy with my experience and would stay there again in future" - Tash, young professional
