Silverton, 88 Trinity Road, EH5 3JU
Set behind the stone pillars of one of Trinity’s most desirable addresses, Silverton is a truly outstanding ground floor drawing room apartment, a home where timeless elegance and thoughtful modern design blend in perfect harmony.
Converted from a distinguished period villa, this main door apartment is a rare opportunity to own a residence of exceptional scale, character, and comfort in one of Edinburgh’s most sought-after neighbourhoods.
From the moment you walk up the path to No. 88, the sense of arrival is unmistakable. A traditional split door opens into a charming vestibule and entrance hall that sets the tone for what lies ahead. The heart of this remarkable home is the magnificent drawing room, a grand, beautifully proportioned space featuring intricate cornicing, a striking fireplace with open gas fire, original working shutters, and a bay window dining area. There’s also a dedicated study zone and feature doors opening to a bright conservatory, an ideal place to soak in the evening light or entertain with views over the landscaped garden.
The kitchen is every bit as impressive: a welcoming space with a central island housing a 5-ring gas hob, Siemens appliances, a wine cabinet, and ample storage including twin Edinburgh Press cupboards. A beautiful original stained-glass window adds colour and character, while a seating area provides the perfect spot to relax or catch up on TV.
The home’s accommodation is both generous and beautifully appointed. The principal bedroom offers built-in robes and a stylish en-suite shower room, while the second double bedroom overlooks the rear garden. The third bedroom, also a double, includes fitted wardrobes. A contemporary family bathroom with thermostatic shower, a separate utility room with pulley, and access to an exceptionally spacious part floored loft complete the internal layout.
Outside, the home continues to impress. The front garden is mature, lovingly maintained, and full of seasonal interest—including a flourishing herb garden. A glasshouse, currently used as a workshop, adds flexibility, and the private driveway provides off-street parking.

A home that captures the grace of a bygone era while offering the ease and comfort of modern living—Silverton is a truly unique find in Edinburgh’s property market.
