Tucked away off the main road, this two-bedroom mid-terrace offers a compact, move-in-ready layout ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The ground floor provides a lounge/diner and a breakfasting kitchen fitted with integrated appliances; upstairs are two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes and a single bathroom with an overhead electric shower. The home benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and residents’ off-street parking.
Outside is a slightly elevated, low-maintenance paved rear garden — easy to manage and private. The property’s footprint is modest (approx. 878 sq ft), making it economical to run; council tax band is cheap and broadband and mobile signal are strong, which suits modern working-from-home needs.
There are some material considerations to note. The wider area is described as very deprived, and the immediate local classification indicates a hard-pressed residential neighbourhood; this will affect long-term resale dynamics. The house, while presented well cosmetically, is a 1950s post-war property and may need ongoing maintenance and targeted modernisation; reports mention exterior maintenance and potential damp issues in the locality, so buyers should budget for checks and any remedial work.
Overall this is a practical, affordable starter home or rental opportunity in Dunfermline, offering economical living costs and good transport links toward Edinburgh and the central belt. Viewings are recommended for those seeking a compact, centrally located property with realistic scope to add value through modest upgrading.
