Close to Inverkeithing station and Park and Ride
Private off-street parking space included
Small private outdoor space to the rear
Freehold tenure with very cheap council tax
Requires full modernisation and cosmetic upgrade
Electric heating; EPC rating E
Slow broadband speeds in the area
Located in a very deprived neighbourhood—consider resale risks
This compact one-bedroom upper flat in Inverkeithing offers a straightforward, low-cost entry into the property market or a tidy rental investment. Its main appeal is location: a five-minute walk to Inverkeithing station with Park and Ride and good motorway access via the M90, making commutes across central Scotland simple.
The accommodation is efficiently arranged over two levels with a living room, galley kitchen, double bedroom with storage and a bathroom. There is a small private outdoor space and a private off-street parking space—useful extras that are uncommon at this price point. The tenure is freehold and council tax is very cheap, helping running costs stay low.
The flat requires full modernisation: cosmetic and likely systems upgrades are needed, and broadband speeds are slow. Heating is electric and the EPC is rated E. These factors reduce immediate comfort but create clear refurbishment potential for a buyer willing to invest time and money.
This property suits a first-time buyer looking to personalise a starter home or an investor targeting a low-entry refurbishment project near reliable commuter links. Be realistic about renovation costs and the surrounding area: local deprivation indicators are high, which may influence long-term rental yields and resale timing.
