About Marchmont
Marchmont is one of Edinburgh’s most distinctive residential neighbourhoods, developed in the late 19th century on land south of the Meadows. The area is characterised by its impressive four-storey tenement blocks built from red and blonde sandstone, with wide streets arranged in a grid pattern along Marchmont Road, Marchmont Crescent, and Warrender Park Terrace. Many flats retain original period features — high ceilings, ornate cornicing, and timber panelled doors — while the neighbourhood itself offers easy access to the Meadows, independent shops on Marchmont Road, and the university quarter. Whether you’re refreshing a first-floor flat on Spottiswoode Street or redecorating a top-floor home on Thirlestane Road, Bert’s Decorating has the experience these properties demand.
