DSS Properties to Rent in Leith

We currently have 0 DSS-accepted propertys available to rent in Leith. Edinburgh's historic port district has undergone one of Scotland's most remarkable regeneration stories. Once rough around the edges, Leith is now the city's most vibrant and diverse neighbourhood — a place where Michelin-starred restaurants sit next to traditional pubs, and converted warehouses house creative agencies alongside social housing. The housing stock is varied: traditional Victorian and Edwardian tenements inland (particularly around Easter Road and Leith Links), modern waterfront apartments at Ocean Terminal and Western Harbour, and converted warehouse lofts along The Shore. Expect to pay £750–£950 for a one-bed, £950–£1,200 for a two-bed. Waterfront new-builds command a premium. Many properties are ex-council and offer good value for the size. Transport has improved dramatically: the Edinburgh Tram now runs from York Place through Leith to Newhaven, connecting to the city centre in 15 minutes and the airport in 35. Lothian Buses routes 7, 10, 12, 14, 16, 22, and 25 provide frequent service along Leith Walk and Easter Road. Cycling along the cycle lanes on Leith Walk takes 15 minutes to Princes Street. The Shore is Leith's crown jewel — a waterfront strip of award-winning restaurants including The Kitchin (Michelin star), Martin Wishart (Michelin star), and dozens of excellent mid-range options. Leith has more restaurants per capita than almost anywhere in Scotland. Ocean Terminal shopping centre, the Royal Yacht Britannia, and Leith Links (a large public park) are all major draws. Leith suits: young professionals who want character and value, foodies and creatives, people who enjoy a diverse urban community, and anyone who wants to be near the waterfront. It's increasingly popular with families thanks to improving schools and the green space at Leith Links. Less suited to those who need to commute to west Edinburgh (the tram goes north-south, not east-west). Schools include Leith Primary School, Hermitage Park Primary School, and Leith Academy (secondary). Nearby neighbourhoods: Leith Walk (south), Newhaven (west), Bonnington (south-west), Easter Road.
