Iconic Building
Originally established in 1902 as an esteemed boarding school for girls and infants, The Old School has undergone a remarkable journey of transformation. Evolving from a grammar school to a college over the decades, it experienced its most dramatic change in 2017, when it was thoughtfully reimagined as an elegant residential development. Now home to 24 distinctive and modern apartments, the building has been expertly and sensitively converted, preserving its historic charm. Original features such as sash windows, soaring ceilings, and painted brickwork remain intact, reflecting a deep respect for the building’s heritage. This exceptional renovation is a true tribute to the enduring character, atmosphere, and storied past of The Old School.
