Description

A Home With History and Heart
2 Bedroom Duplex Apartment in a Former School Building

Once the halls of learning, now a unique place to live, grow, and unwind — this remarkable duplex apartment forms part of the iconic former Portobello High School. Expertly converted, the building blends original architectural character with considered contemporary living.

Set across two levels, the home offers something refreshingly different. On the main floor, a spacious living and dining area is paired with double-height ceilings and vast windows, creating a dramatic yet inviting space to relax or entertain. A separate kitchen offers excellent storage and functionality, with a cloakroom and hall cupboard adding everyday convenience.

Upstairs, the apartment surprises again — two generous double bedrooms, each thoughtfully styled in calming tones. One features a striking mezzanine level that overlooks the living space, ideal for a home office, reading nook or creative retreat. A modern bathroom and additional built-in storage complete the upper level.

Highlights Include:

  • Character features from a celebrated period conversion

  • Dramatic double-height living space with natural light

  • Separate kitchen with plentiful storage

  • Two double bedrooms with versatile layouts

  • Stylish mezzanine with elevated views

  • Cloakroom and ample storage

  • Excellent transport links and coastal access

  • Well-maintained communal areas

  • Secure entry system

Located where city living meets coastal charm, this Portobello address offers the best of both worlds. The sea is just a short stroll away, while central Edinburgh is within easy reach.

A truly distinctive home – filled with light, charm and possibility. Contact Home Sales and Lettings to arrange a viewing.
