You can walk to everything, train station, cinema, city hall, the river, bars, restaurants etc. The apartment is located on the second and third floor of a charming jugend building from 1910. The apartment has a comfortable balcony with incredible views of what is most likely the only catholic stave church in the world. The space Many years ago this building used to be the office of a renowned and award-winning design agency. Even if Porsgrunn is a small city, the agency recruited some of the best designers from all over the world to come and work here. And to give these designers the best possible start in a new city, this apartment was renovated and decorated to a very high standard. After the agency merged with another agency and moved to a new office (Powerhouse - google it and visit it if you are in the area), this secret gem of an apartment got listed here on airbnb.
