Buyers make a mature decision at Brunstane Court
With its highly accessible location and superb choice of spacious apartments, Sovereign House Developments is benefiting from increasing interest from mature buyers at its Brunstane Court development near Edinburgh.
Colin McLachlan, joint manager director with leading niche Scottish house-builder Sovereign, comments; “We have noticed a recent shift among the type of buyers wanting to purchase at Brunstane Court. That is because we have created a range of apartments that appeal equally to both young professionals and mature downsizers.
“Every apartment features a functional, open plan living space, allowing the kitchen, lounge and dining area to flow as one. For younger buyers, this appeals because it provides them with a large social hub. However, mature buyers like the accessibility of having everything on one level. They can also downsize from a large house without having to compromise on internal space, such is the floor size of the properties at the development.”
Comprising a choice of 82 striking one, two and three-bedroom apartments, every apartment features Sovereign’s signature high specification finish and craftsmanship approach, which again has struck a chord with more mature buyers.
As standard, every property is sold with a beautifully finished, fully fitted kitchen, including a choice of units and worktops form Sovereign’s elegant range. A stainless steel oven/hob and cookerhood, along with an integrated fridge-freezer and free standing washer dryer ensure move-in day is effortless for buyers.
In the main bathroom and en-suite to the master-bedroom, purchasers will find high quality Porcelanosa tiling, modern sanitary ware and subtle finishes such as down-lighters, highlighting each home is convenient as it is stylish – attributes that reverberate with buyers both young and mature.
Colin continues, “For young professionals, with busy working lives, they want a property that is fashionable, but also low maintenance. For more mature buyers, many of who have active social lives, they also want a home that requires minimal upkeep. Therefore, at Brunstane Court we have defined the internal space to reflect the lifestyle requirements of two very different types of buyers – but on all levels, it works well for both.”
Externally, Brusntane Courts is a contemporary building that is further complemented by a landscaped courtyard. Every home comes with the added security of an underground parking space, while all ground floor apartments come with their own private garden – another aspect that has caught the eye of mature buyers.
Situated just five miles from the heart of the Capital, Brunstane Court is also well placed to enjoy the fresh sea air, as the beach at Portobello is just minutes’ away, where long walks can be enjoyed all year round.
For those looking for something a little bit different for their leisure time – Musselburgh Racecourse is close by and Fort Kinnaird shopping centre, with is wealth of leading high street brands, is nearby should some retail therapy be the order of the day.
Queen Margaret University and Jewel and Esk Valley College are also not far from Brunstane Court – ideal for those mature buyers who want to take up a course, which they have always wanted to do, but may not had time to during their busy working life.
The development is also well served with local bus services to the city centre and beyond; while Newcraighall Train Station provides fast and frequent transport along the East Coast Mainline.
