The property

Yielding breath-taking coastal views across the Firth of Forth, with a panoramic vista of the Edinburgh skyline, this exquisite four-bedroom, three-reception room Victorian home (circa. 1850s) lies in the historic Fifeshire town of Burntisland; with a quiet setting enviably close to the seafront. End of terrace and enjoying generous internal proportions, with soaring high ceilings, the house is further characterised by abundant period features, including charming sash-and-case windows (most with working shutters), and tastefully presented interiors. Marking a fabulous approach to the property, along with its pleasingly symmetrical stone frontage, is an enchanting country-style front garden. From here, the inviting solid front door opens into a practical vestibule affording access to a spacious hall housing a handy, secondary- glazed WC. Positioned to either side of the hall are two equally well- proportioned reception areas for relaxation and formal dining; both enjoying captivating sea views, a sunny southwest-facing aspect, built- in storage and neutral decor accompanied by comfortable carpeting and intricately-detailed cornicing. The living room is further supplemented by the homely focal feature of a working fire set into a handsome period-style surround. Promising a tranquil rear garden outlook, the third reception area (also housing built-in storage) is arranged around an authentic feature fireplace and offers flexibility as a home study, a further sitting area or a fifth bedroom. Completing the ground- floor accommodation is a kitchen adjoined by a useful utility room with garden access. Designed to allow for a sociable central dining area, the kitchen boasts a contemporary high-end appearance. Offset by duck-egg blue walls and quality tiled flooring, the space is fitted with a wide collection of ivory-white contemporary cabinets complemented by stylish fixtures, integrated downlighting and dark, granite-effect worktops. Well-equipped for busy family meals and entertaining, the room also includes an impressive range cooker, paired with a striking integrated hood and neutral chequered splashback tiling, and a neatly-integrated fridge freezer and a dishwasher. Next door, the immediate utility room represents a discreet laundry area with plumbing and built-in pantry storage. From the hall, a sweeping staircase, with an ornate handrail and large picture window, leads up to a light and airy landing accommodating four large double bedrooms (with built-in storage), with all areas enjoying magnificent scenic vistas. The front-facing bedrooms benefit from a favourable southwest-facing aspect and a far-reaching outlook, southwards to Edinburgh and westwards beyond Burntisland docks to the three bridges. The rear-facing bedrooms encapsulate views of the town and its iconic Binn Hill. Finished in tranquil neutral tones and carpeted for extra comfort, all four bedrooms retain their classic cornicing detail and deep-set panelled window surrounds, whilst two rooms also boast delightful feature fireplaces. Finally, a bright and roomy double-glazed bathroom, attractively-tiled with a neutral, marbled finish, comprises a WC-suite, a wall-mounted mirrored vanity cupboard and a contemporary P-shaped bathtub with an overhead shower. The property is heated via a gas central heating system. Externally, the home is accompanied by well-tended walled gardens to the front and rear, accentuated by neat lawned areas, mature border planting and fantastic views. The front garden enjoys the property's southerly-facing aspect and sea vista, whilst the rear garden is fully-enclosed with useful store room and gated back access to a private parking space for one vehicle. Unrestricted on-street parking is also available in the immediate vicinity. Extras: All fitting floor and selected window coverings, light fittings and range cooker to be included in the sale.
