01 Area at a glance
Murrayfield and Ravelston form one of west Edinburgh's most established residential districts. Murrayfield mixes handsome avenues, apartments and the activity around the stadium and Roseburn; Ravelston feels more secluded, with mature trees, large plots and quieter roads.
The area is well placed for the West End, airport and city bypass while retaining access to the Water of Leith and Corstorphine Hill. Buyers should choose carefully between transport convenience and deeper residential seclusion.

My local view
Murrayfield and Ravelston are not interchangeable. I'd start by deciding whether the buyer values tram and shop access or privacy, garden size and a more secluded street.
The best purchase is often the house or apartment with the right plot and position, because those cannot be recreated later. Internal finishes can change; orientation, mature surroundings and access remain.
