4th August 2009 Print
Experience the perfect balance at Quartermile Quartermile has unveiled a selection of new build and conversion show apartments at the development, giving homebuyers a chance to experience a wide choice of luxury homes available in the heart of Edinburgh.

The properties currently available to view include striking new build show apartments located in the Foster + Partner designed Azurean building, as well as the sought-after three bed conversions, all beautifully styled by Tangram Furnishers.

The Azurean building houses two new apartments which showcase both the one-bed and two-bed styles available, offering the very best in contemporary open plan living.

Comprising 70 modern urban apartments, the Azurean occupies a great position alongside the listed Victorian conversions and next to both the main public square and the retail units on Middle Meadow Walk.

As well as the striking steel and glass exterior architecture, Foster + Partners has also been responsible for much of the design throughout the apartments with high quality, minimalist features creating an understated elegance.

Floor to ceiling height windows flood the living areas with natural light, and for warmer months the front panel of the window slides open to bring the outdoors in.

The three bedroom conversion apartments offer a different proposition. Designed by leading local architects CDA, each enjoy a unique layout to maximise the features of the original hospital buildings. They capture Edinburgh’s distinctive architecture and character, seamlessly blending old and new to give a unique combination of period style and the best in contemporary living.

Currently available to view is a south facing three bedroom garden apartment located in Simpson Hall, featuring its own private patio with views over the meadows. The apartment’s distinctive turrets have been utilised as a dining area and snug, retaining the personality of the original architecture.

In Blake Hall viewers are able to experience an alternative three bedroom layout featuring a luxurious open plan living area, and an upper gallery making use of the double height ceilings, and the master bedroom enjoys an adjoining dressing room and ensuite shower. The apartment has also been fitted with Quartermile’s cutting edge technology package to add a further dimension.

Lorraine Paterson, Sales & Marketing Director for Gladedale Capital, commented: “The new build apartments provide the ultimate in contemporary city living whilst the conversions perfectly blend period charm with modern day luxury.

“And with such a wide range of apartments now available to view, we would urge any interested buyers to come along and experience what life at Quartermile can offer for themselves.”

The mixed use development has an exciting year ahead with the second office building Quartermile Two set for completion in November at the same time as the main public square, forming the heart of this vibrant new community.
