A competitively priced upper flat offering spacious rooms and sea glimpses from the rear — ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking low entry cost. The layout includes porch, hall, lounge, kitchen, two double bedrooms and a shower room; the accommodation feels roomy throughout with 661 sq ft of traditional-style living space.
The flat benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and a modern shower room, reducing immediate major expense. Shared rear gardens provide outdoor space, and the property is freehold — uncommon for flats — with very low council tax and no recorded flood risk. Transport links into Leven and the Fife Circle line to Edinburgh are within reach.
Buyers should note the property sits in a very deprived, hard-pressed area; local socio-economic indicators reflect outer-city hardship. The building is a Victorian terraced stone construction and, while structurally traditional, the interior will likely benefit from cosmetic updating to match modern tastes. Access is to an upper flat via stairs, which may matter for mobility-restricted purchasers.
This is a straightforward opportunity for someone prioritising space and value over location prestige. Investors can expect rental appeal given room sizes and transport links; first-time buyers gain a substantial home at an accessible price, with scope to add value through modest refurbishment.
