A rare opportunity to rent a large double room in a spacious 3-bedroom flat on Crighton Place (Leith Walk) — shared by only TWO tenants.
With just one other professional in the flat, you effectively have access to a full 3-bedroom property — including a dedicated study room and a furnished guest double bedroom ready for visitors. For anyone working from home or wanting genuine space and privacy in a flatshare, this is genuinely unusual.

VIEWINGS
Viewings available in person or remotely from mid April — happy to arrange a video call if that works better for you.
Please message with a short intro including:
• A little about yourself — your job, working pattern (including whether you work from home), interests, and what you're generally like as a flatmate
• Why you're looking to move and what you're hoping for in your next place
• When you'd be looking to move in if successful
We're looking for someone who genuinely wants a quiet, comfortable home rather than just a room — so the more you can tell us about yourself upfront, the better.
There's no right or wrong answer, we just want to make sure it's a good fit for everyone.
