About Newington
Newington is a well-connected residential neighbourhood in south Edinburgh, stretching along the historic route of Dalkeith Road and South Clerk Street towards the city centre. The area offers a rich mix of property styles — from elegant Georgian townhouses and B-listed villas along Minto Street and Salisbury Place to Victorian tenement flats on Causewayside and East Preston Street. Its proximity to the University of Edinburgh, the Royal Commonwealth Pool, and Arthur’s Seat makes it popular with families, professionals, and students alike. Many Newington properties have been divided into flats over the decades, each with unique decorating challenges from original cornicing to modern extensions. Bert’s Decorating has the versatility and experience these varied properties require.
