A top floor flat with absolutely breathtaking views out to sea has hit the market in the sought after East Lothian town.
Situated within a converted 19th century villa, the three-bedroom apartment sits at the top of the B-listed building overlooking the North Berwick coastline.
Access to the property can be gained through its own private door on the ground floor and up a turret staircase.

The reception room is a throwback with its decor but it is well lit and comes with an ornate looking fireplace for the cold winter nights.
Each bedroom is carpeted and could do with a bit of modernising but there is ample room for a young family to have their own space.
A sign that the flat was built in a bygone era, there is a serving hatch that connects the relatively spacious kitchen with the sitting room.
Advertised for £520,000 on ESPC, agents Paris Steele describe it as: “Flat 7, Hyndford House is an excellent opportunity to purchase this unique, light filled, top floor apartment forming part of this B-listed, nineteenth-century villa with open views over the North Berwick coastline.
“Accessed via its own private door on the ground floor, the staircase within the turret climbs to the top floor entrance.
“On entering the apartment there is a large welcoming hall. The reception rooms are to the west facing side of the property and include a wonderfully bright and spacious dual aspect living/dining room that provides excellent space for both dining and relaxing.
“The kitchen/breakfast room offers a good range of cream shaker style wall and base units and integrated appliances. There is room for a separate breakfast table affording views over the communal gardens below. A serving hatch connects the kitchen to the living/dining room.
“The three bedrooms are located on the opposite wing and bedroom two boasts superb coastal views. A shower room and separate WC complete the accommodation.
“The property benefits from well-kept, landscaped communal gardens with extensive lawns with mature flower beds and trees. The gardens are a wonderful environment to enjoy the property and its excellent position, and offer easy access to the Marine Hotel, golf course and beach.
“North Berwick is a peaceful coastal town lying in the heart of the East Lothian countryside amidst a backdrop of sweeping beaches and rolling farmland. A haven for holiday makers, North Berwick rail station also makes the town well placed for commuting to Edinburgh, which can be reached in around 30 minutes by train or approximately 40 minutes by car via the A1.
“There is a picturesque harbour with frequent boat trips, sailing club, tennis club, rugby and football pitches, museum/library, The Scottish Seabird Centre and an award-winning gin distillery.
“The bustling High Street boasts many independent shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs. There is a sports centre with swimming pool and two large supermarkets on the south eastern edge of town. Fringe By The Sea takes place every August and brings an eclectic selection of entertainment to the town.
“For the golf enthusiast, The West Links and The Glen offer stunning links courses, with further well-known choices in Gullane and throughout the county.
“There is excellent local primary schooling and a highly regarded High School, which consistently scores well in national league tables.
