Melville Street is the central axis of the western extension of Edinburgh’s Georgian New Town (known as the Walker Estate development). It was designed by Robert Brown in 1814 and is largely unaltered, with the monumental impact of the streetscape emphasized by the width of the avenue. It is, without doubt, the grandest part of this world-famous residential scheme.
The street is impressively framed by St Mary’s Cathedral at one end and West Register House at the other. Houses along the avenue boast fine classical detailing that includes large sash and case windows and serpent lamp extinguishers, which are coiled in the railings at the entrances of many of its properties. 17 Melville Street is a short walk from Edinburgh’s most prestigious shopping streets and the capital’s world-renowned museums, galleries and theatres. Local dining includes everything from Michelin-starred restaurants to intimate bistros. The development is also close to some of the capital’s great public schools and has easy access to Edinburgh’s famous parks and gardens, including the nearby Water of Leith.
