Cheap council tax but limited verified property information available
This one-bedroom first-floor flat sits in a historic Georgian mixed-use building on Kirkcaldy High Street, offering compact town-centre living with coastal views towards the Forth. At around 556 sq ft the layout provides a generous reception/living-dining room, separate kitchen area, bedroom with built-in storage and a shower room. Gas central heating and fast broadband make it practical for everyday use or letting.
The property’s Freehold tenure and prominent High Street location are strong selling points for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking immediate footfall and easy access to buses, trains and local amenities. The building’s listed status and period features give character, and there is obvious potential to refresh décor and modernise finishes to add value. No private outdoor space is available — town-centre living with convenience rather than garden appeal.
Buyers should note material caveats: the property is listed, which can restrict alterations and add consent costs, and some internal redecoration and modernisation will likely be needed. The wider area records high deprivation, and there is limited information verification available — prospective purchasers are advised to obtain full searches, a survey, and any listed-building advice before committing. Energy rating is EER band D.
Overall this flat suits a first-time purchaser wanting a central, low-running-cost home or an investor looking for a straightforward rental in a transport-linked town centre. Early viewing and independent checks are recommended to confirm condition, planning constraints and service details.
