Donaldson Crescent is an exceptional first floor apartment offering two bedrooms, two underground parking spaces, and an elevated standard of contemporary living within one of Edinburgh’s most sought after residential addresses.

The property’s defining feature is the impressive double height, open plan living, dining and kitchen space. Floor to ceiling glazing frames uninterrupted southerly views across the landscaped residents’ gardens towards Donaldson’s — William Playfair’s iconic Grade A listed masterpiece — with the Pentland Hills providing a dramatic backdrop. The full height windows open to a Juliet balcony, creating a wonderful sense of volume and light. The space is presented immaculately, with solid wood flooring enhancing the clean, modern aesthetic.

The sleek contemporary kitchen features light grey gloss cabinetry, a coordinating Silestone worktop and a central island, complemented by a suite of high quality integrated appliances including Gaggenau induction hob and twin ovens, Siemens dishwasher, CDA wine fridge and full height fridge freezer. A separate utility room provides further convenience.

A mezzanine study overlooks the main living area, offering an inspiring workspace with further views of the Playfair building.

The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged, with a guest WC positioned centrally. To the rear, the peaceful principal bedroom enjoys garden outlooks, a walk in wardrobe, and a well appointed en suite bathroom with bath, separate shower and Villeroy & Boch sanitary ware. A second double bedroom, also garden facing, features built in wardrobes and is served by a contemporary family shower room, likewise fitted with Villeroy & Boch.

The apartment benefits from underfloor heating throughout, zoned for comfort and operable remotely via the Pelopipe app. Further features include double glazing, video entry system, excellent storage, and the option of a Natuzzi Italia furniture package by separate negotiation.

The building is serviced by a lift to all levels, including the basement, where the apartment has two secure allocated parking spaces as well as access to shared bicycle storage.

Donaldson Crescent enjoys a prime position in Edinburgh’s prestigious West End, set directly behind the former Donaldson’s School—now an exclusive residential conversion and one of the city’s most recognisable architectural landmarks.

Designed by award winning architect Richard Murphy and completed by CALA in 2018, this highly acclaimed development combines contemporary luxury with exceptional design quality. Residents benefit from access to approximately 18 acres of beautifully maintained private grounds, offering expansive landscaped spaces and serene walking paths for shared enjoyment.
