KEYS TO KNOW

Where is it: Tusculum, 3c Links Road, North Berwick.

What is it: A five-bedroomed top-floor duplex flat in a Victorian house, with private garden and garaging.

Good points: The views must be some of the best in East Lothian, taking in the beach and the harbour, the Firth of Forth and Berwick Law. For golf enthusiasts, a course is almost literally on the doorstep. Plus the flat has potential to extend its spectacular tower room and the smaller store room below.

Bad points: Because it is topfloor, the rooms do not have period proportions or high ceilings. It is top floor, but there is a lift as well as stairs.

Price: Offers over £630,000.
