CLOSING DATE 24/07/2026 12:00 Closing date set for Friday 24th July at 12 noon.
A rare opportunity to acquire a truly distinctive home in a prime location, close to award-winning restaurants, an eclectic array of independent shops, pubs and cafes, and regular transport links, including bus and tram links for swift connections to the city centre and airport.
Set within the historic former Yardheads School, this impressive ground and first floor duplex apartment on Giles Street combines striking architectural character with contemporary style, just moments from the Shore.
With high ceilings, expansive windows and a mezzanine level, the property evokes the feel of a Manhattan-style loft, offering flexible, light-filled living in one of Edinburgh's most sought-after neighbourhoods.
The development is factored by James Gibb for approx. £100 per month plus a £300 deposit. This includes maintenance of communal areas, gardening and grounds, and buildings insurance.
