Seabraes 1-32 accommodates 219 students with a range of 7-bed flats. A popular location, just off Perth Rd and less than five minutes’ walk to campus, yet in a peaceful setting with a carpark (permits can be requested after moving in). 

Seabraes also enjoys a spacious Common Room where you will find board games, table football, table tennis, an upright piano for the musicians and large screen TV. We regularly hold events and cinema nights at the Seabraes Common Room, free of charge for student residents.
