Palatial Penthouse Living - Edinburgh Feature Home

This stunning, light-filled penthouse in Barnton Avenue West is the last word in gracious living and 21st century chic. 

Set in a unique contemporary development, a series of terraces takes full advantage of a prime position looking south across the Royal Burgess Golf Course to the Pentland Hills beyond.

Glossy, distinctive hardwood flooring provides a glamorous grounding to the airy open plan living and dining space.  Vast floor to ceiling glazed doors open onto a Hollywood-style, sun-filled terrace.  A chic inset fire occupies a corner of a feature partition wall creating a focal point for the sitting and dining areas.  Soft inset lighting creates a tranquil ambience and simple contemporary furnishings in soft beiges and caramels complement the flooring.  An arresting piece of contemporary art establishes the dining area as an attractive spot in its own right.

The chic, 21st century kitchen is home to a selection of glamorous units including glass front, roll down and pull out sections which blend effortlessly into a harmonious yet interesting whole.  The central island unit appears to float above the pale limestone flooring and soft cream painted walls provide the perfect foil for the rich wood finish and brushed stainless steel appliances. A light-drenched breakfasting area overlooks another charming terrace.

The main focal point of the master bedroom is a  very distinctive, large print feature wallpaper.  The remaining décor has been cleverly underplayed so as not to be overpowering.  A deep quilted coverlet and plush suede headboard add comfort and glamour and Eastern-influenced dark wood bedside tables add a crisp, almost masculine feel which is reflected in the dressing area.  Simple, luxuriously full drapes frame another fabulous terrace and views over deep,  landscaped greenery.

The boutique-chic master bathroom has crisp, stylised porcelain fittings fit to grace the most glamorous of hotel rooms. 

Soft, tactile limestone tiles surround the bath and shower area while soft inset lights create a spa-like ambience.  Contemporary dark wood fittings again reinforce the slightly masculine feel and a vast mirror-fronted cabinet makes the perfect repository for everyday bathroom clutter.
