About this property

Apartment 3 forms part of the highly regarded redevelopment of The Old School, an historic building originally constructed in 1902 as a prestigious boarding school for girls and infants before later evolving into a grammar school and college.

Original features including sash windows, parquet flooring, painted brickwork and impressive ceiling heights remain central to its appeal.
