Property types

Georgian Flat

A Georgian flat is a home within a Georgian-period building, often retaining high ceilings, large sash and case windows and classical interior detailing.

Georgian flats are particularly associated with Edinburgh’s New Town, where original townhouses and purpose-built residential buildings provide some of the city’s most distinctive period homes.

Common features include generous room proportions, high ceilings, sash and case windows, decorative plasterwork, fireplaces, panelled doors and traditional timber joinery. Layouts vary considerably, particularly where larger historic properties have been subdivided.

Renovation may involve restoring period details while introducing contemporary kitchens, bathrooms, heating, electrical services and improved layouts appropriate for modern living.
