If the idea of converting and redecorating a new home doesn’t appeal, take it to the other extreme and look into ex-show homes. The Amberwood is a two-bedroom apartment in West Mill, Westpoint Homes’ development at Colinton Village, and is ready for move-in day. And if its orange-and-grey scheme and Jackton Moor cabinetry doesn’t impress, its location on the banks of Edinburgh’s Water of Leith surely will. £450,000.
