See a Slice of the High Life at Trinity Park

Cala Homes Press releases

House hunters with a yearn for high living can take a peek into one of the latest penthouses to pop up on the capital’s horizon.

Going far above and beyond your standard city apartment, the Craig Penthouse at CALA Homes award winning Trinity Park development has opened its doors to prospective buyers.

CALA Homes are encouraging those looking to be the envy of Edinburgh to view its newly launched show apartment to get a taste of the high life. Craig Penthouse Study

With its floor-to-ceiling windows leading out to a terraced area with panoramic views, the property exudes wow factor and is perfect for those looking to entertain guests.

However show stopping doesn’t necessarily mean bank breaking as CALA Homes part exchange service promises to make any move quick, simple and more readily affordable.

Sarah Stanger, Sales and Marketing Director for CALA Homes (East), said: “The word ‘penthouse’ conjures up images of something that bit special and maybe even out of reach.

“While our Craig Penthouse is certainly special, the quality and lifestyle it offers couldn’t be more accessible, whether you’re looking for an alternative family home, stylish city pad or you are downsizing.

“I have no doubt people will be surprised to learn that they can part exchange their way to a penthouse, which takes away a huge chunk of worry about selling an existing home.

“In fact, we want them to be surprised, as we hope a whole range of people who wouldn’t normally picture themselves in a penthouse will come and view this property – they’ll be surprised all over again. What’s more with its location just by Inverleith Row it also offers easy access to a range of excellent local amenities and easy access to the city centre”

The penthouse is situated at the heart of Trinity Park, which has garnered numerous awards and plaudits with its New Town inspired layout, dimensions and elegance.

With its mixture of 5 bedroom Georgian Villas, spacious semi-detached, 3 bedroom large mews-style homes and 2 and 3 bedroom apartments, it has proved a magnet for families, professional couples and retirees creating a dynamic community.

In the penthouse the expansive kitchen-dining area can easily accommodate many guests, making the perfect space to cook and entertain at the same time. Meanwhile, with three bedrooms – all with en suite facilities which have underfloor heating – are ideal for hosting overnight guests.

Yet, if peace and quiet is the order of the day, the location is perfectly tranquil. As the only property on the top floor, when the lift delivers you to the landing it feels like you are already in your home.

When guests have packed up and gone, the breakfast bar is ideal for couples, who can still make the most of the well-equipped kitchen with its pop up power points, granite work tops, integrated instant boiling water tap and ceramic induction hob.

Likewise, when the weather is favourable, the outdoor areas give a peaceful outlook – particularly from the kitchen area, overlooking the mature trees within the listed walls of the development boundary.

Since the property also comes with two private parking spaces and the building is secure and factored, it is also likely to appeal to ex pats who return to Scotland intermittently and like to catch up with friends and family while in town.

Sarah Stanger added: “We know that this kind of secure, private property is ideal for those who either travel a lot or perhaps work abroad and need a ‘lock and leave’ base in the city.

“However, it is such a flexible, wonderful space, it could just as easily appeal to a family with a couple of teenage kids who would love having their own en suite in their bedrooms.

“That is why we are urging people to put aside preconceptions about what a penthouse is. Come along and see for yourself.”

With a footprint of 2030 sq ft, the penthouse also comprises a large airy south facing lounge and an impressive hallway, designed to double as a study area with floor to ceiling windows leading directly out onto a south-facing terrace.

As well as warm, honey-coloured oak flooring, it is equipped with electric blinds in lounge, hallway and master bedroom that diffuse lights throughout. There is also extensive storage space.

The apartment is available for £795,000 and potential buyers can also look at CALA’s respected part exchange service.
