Upper Strand Developments is celebrating this month following a hugely successful first year on Edinburgh's Waterfront.

Over half of its one, two and three bedroom properties have been sold, with people attracted to the area by the opportunities for first time buyers, young professionals and families. The stunning apartments some with views over the Firth of Forth and Fife, are set in a great location, with excellent transport links to the city centre and appealing incentives to buy are also generating a great deal of interest among house hunters.

These include a Sony Bravia 32" HD LCD TV and DVD recorder with Broadband, TV and Telephone package, paid for one year, with all apartments, priced from £137,500 to £197,000 and occupied by Christmas 2006, and stamp duty being exempt for properties under £150,000.

Further incentives include a tailor-made package to suit purchaser's needs, worth £2,500, legal fees to the value of £1,000, survey fees to the value of £500 and IKEA furniture vouchers to the value of £1,000 and many more.

Located within close proximity to the city centre of Edinburgh and Ocean Terminal, the development is part of the larger Waterfront Edinburgh Ltd regeneration programme, a joint venture between urban regeneration specialists, The Burrell Company, and Places for People. The area is also home to the new Telford College campus, a selection of new supermarkets and cafes.

Andrew Burrell, Managing Director of The Burrell Company, said: "Upper Strand has experienced a regular influx of interest over the last year, which we are delighted about. Many people realise as soon as they actually visit the area, the benefits of living in a desirable, well designed and affordable property close to the city centre.

"We are confident the remaining properties will follow suit."

Colin Rae, Development Director in Scotland for Places for People, added: "Upper Strand is a fantastic place for people not only buying their first property but also for those stepping up the property ladder and moving into a two bedroom home, making it a very desirable investment."

The development, which boasts spacious balconies or terraces and free secure parking, with options to purchase a space in two years, also features tree-lined boulevards, wide walkways and cycle paths, leading to squares and piazzas enhanced by sculptures, water features and extensive planting add to the overall appeal of the area.
