The property

Occupying a prime elevated position with far-reaching open views, this five-bedroom, three-bathroom house is quietly located at the top of no-through road in Inverkeithing, within walking distance of the town’s bustling high street and railway station and enjoying access to excellent motorway links. The impressive family home boasts expansive, flexible interiors arranged over three floors, extensive well-maintained gardens, an integral double garage and excellent private parking, and boasts a self-contained living area with its own private access. Accessed from the rear, the main door opens into a hallway with a WC and access to the double garage. Straight ahead, you step into the home’s impressive open-plan, splitlevel reception space (with storage) where a galleried dining area overlooks a spacious, dual-aspect living room affording wonderful open views from a bank of southeastfacing windows. Openly-adjoined to the dining area, a kitchen is well-appointed with a range of traditionally-styled cabinetry and equipped with a range of appliances, including an oven, a ceramic hob, an extractor hood, a dishwasher and space for a freestanding fridge/freezer. Accessed from the living area, a hall leads to the first of five generous double bedrooms and a shower room, whilst a short flight of stairs continues down to a landing on a mezzanine level, leading to a utility room with garden access, space for a washing machine and a dryer, and the home’s self-contained accommodation. Stepping down into a kitchen, with its own private access via an entrance vestibule with built-in storage, you find a contemporary space, fitted with modern gloss-grey cabinetry and granite-inspired worktops, and boasting a range of integrated appliances including a raised double oven, a gas hob, a statement extractor hood, and a freestanding fridge. Space is incorporated for a seated dining area and, accompanied by crispwhite décor and stylish timber-effect flooring, the kitchen flows openly into a comfortable living area, flooded with sunlight from a southwest-facing window. Leading off here is a double bedroom, neighboured by a contemporary shower room with a deluxe double shower enclosure. On the lower level, a hall with storage leads to the remaining three bedrooms and a family bathroom. All three double bedrooms enjoy a sunny, southeast-facing aspect and offer versatile floorspace for freestanding bedroom and home office furnishings. The family bathroom features a three-piece-suite, including a luxurious jacuzzi bath with a pull-out shower handset, set against a background of understated wall tiling with stylish mosaic accents. Gas central heating and double glazing ensure year-round comfort and warmth. Externally, the property’s extensive wrap-around garden grounds include a front garden which is chipped for ease of maintenance and bordered by an array of mature shrubs, as well as a landscaped, terraced side garden, framed by established planting, incorporating a patio area for al fresco dining and a garden shed for external storage. Set to the rear, a wide mono-blocked driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles and leads to a double garage.
