Historic Georgian Entire House - The Royal Mile
Welcome to Russell House, a historic listed building nestled in the heart of Reid's Court, Edinburgh. Built around 1790, this Georgian property offers a unique blend of classic charm and modern convenience. The court is named after the Reid family, esteemed smiths and coach makers of the 17th and 18th centuries, adding a rich historical context to this exceptional home. Situated at the bottom of the Royal Mile, the house is only a short walk away from the Scottish Parliament, Holyrood Palace, Dynamic Earth, Edinburgh castle and many other of central Edinburgh's top attractions.
The property boasts four spacious bedrooms, featuring three double beds and one king-sized bed, providing ample accommodation for family and guests. The living room is comfortable and inviting, perfect for relaxation and socializing.
Russell House features two well-appointed bathrooms, one with a bathtub and the other with a walk-in shower on the higher floors. There is also a convenient WC on the ground floor. The kitchen is fully fitted and maintained to a high standard, with porcelain tiling and all necessary appliances for modern living.
Set just a few meters back from the Royal Mile, this 1790 Georgian property is in the ideal position for visiting Edinburgh. The gas central heating ensures the property is warm and cozy, and the entire house is in excellent condition. Each bedroom is designed to be both comfortable and spacious, ensuring a restful stay.
The house has 3 floors with 1 bedroom, the kitchen and WC all on the ground floor and the living room, 3 beautiful bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms are arranged over the 1st & 2nd floors.
The house is well-served by bus routes and is near Waverley Train Station, ensuring excellent transport links. Additionally, there is 1 private free car parking space right next to the house.
Our check-in method is simple and convenient: Self-check-in is the only option, with the key securely stored in a key safe at the property.
