Set within an impressive, A-Listed red brick building that was formerly Ramsay Technical Institute, this spacious flat enjoys a prime location just a few minutes’ walk from Portobello beach and High Street. With lift access, the property is positioned on the third floor and offers bright and flexible living space, ideal for modern living and entertaining.
Off the entrance hall, there is a large sitting room with striking arched windows that feature throughout the property and lend the flat a wonderful sense of character.
