East Leven Street, Burntisland

A historic hidden gem of a house with an enchanted private garden; number 28 East Leven Street is all that and more.
Retaining a traditional dignity, the subjects have been loved, improved, embellished and sympathetically restored. The high ceilings, sash and cash windows and period fireplaces enhance an interior that has views to the water from both front and back.
Outer door to front of building leads to 11 ft hall. Access from here to delightful breakfasting kitchen, separate utility (with door to ground floor cloaks/WC) and front lounge. A public apartment completed with multi fuel fire and large cupboard. Stairway from within this apartment to upper hall. Secondary glazed windows "frame" the rear aspect to River. Access given to 2 double bedrooms, both finished with fireplaces and in case of second bedroom, a fabulous. shuttered window. The aspect to front is again to the River. Interior completed by first floor shower room.
The appeal and specification of this home is immediate. Blending beautifully new and old, timber and quality flooring, attractive internal doors and quirky period features like Belfast sink punctuate the adaptable interior. Because it does offer flexibility of use. The ground floor lounge could serve as a bedroom, promoting main bedroom to principal, public apartment. The position of shower room allows it to act as en-suite to second, double bedroom.
The charm and appeal continue externally as you appreciate the generous, level garden grounds set to front of subjects. An area laid to lawn with cultivated borders. Included with title are private store (just along from dwelling house) and use of large, communal garage.
As a lock up and leave, holiday home, an air BnB business opportunity or simply a cottage with character and River aspect, this is a unique home to savour, enjoy and reside within. Perfect location, being a 5 minute walk of the local train station.
