A compact two-bedroom ground-floor flat with private front garden and off-street parking, offered below the Home Report valuation. The accommodation has been freshly decorated and provides a spacious lounge, separate kitchen, two double bedrooms and a family bathroom — suited to a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking immediate rental potential.
Practical positives include a two-car driveway, garden grounds, freehold tenure, no flood risk and strong digital connectivity (excellent mobile signal and fast broadband). The property benefits from period character such as high ceilings and original mouldings in the lounge, which add appeal once refreshed.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the property sits in a very deprived, transitional area and shows dated elements (single-pane windows, older fittings). The EPC is D and the electrical/heating systems have not been tested — some updating or further inspections may be required. The overall size is small (approx. 606 sq ft), so space is limited compared with modern family homes.
At the asking price of £59,000 (Home Report £63,000), this flat offers an affordable entry to the Methil market with scope to increase value through sensible refurbishment. It is best suited to a first-time purchaser or investor prepared for modest upgrade works and to buy into a challenged local area.
