Braehead House, Victoria Road, Kirkcaldy, KY1

Creatively modernised top floor 4 bed apartment with parking, set in a magnificent and substantial Grade 'B' Listed Building which lies 3/4 of a mile to NE of Kirkcaldy town centre. Braehead House overlooks the Firth of Forth from its terraced garden elevation and was designed by the renowned architect Mr James Millar. It was built in 1939 and originally used as the office of Nairn's Linoleum Works, and in the early 1994 the building was professionally converted to form 35 luxury apartments. Excellent town centre facilities and amenities are available within a few minutes walk, including the main line train station.

Entrance is via the main security door at the front, which you will arrive at after entering the walled and gated private gardens and parked in the common parking area at the front of the house. Entering into the spectacular main grand hall you will find a lift and the recently upgraded staircase leading to the upper levels of the spectacular apartment building.

This peaceful apartment marries pared-back period features with a modern aesthetic to create generous rooms bathed with natural light and has been the subject of considered changes by the current owner, sensitively retaining period features, with the result being a wonderful marriage between voluminous proportions and a fine palette, culminating in interior spaces that are at once sophisticated, warm and serene. The spacious, light-filled lounge / dining room features an array of dual aspect feature windows and moving on you will be impressed with the spacious and well equipped breakfasting kitchen with its array of units and appliances and feature Belfast sink. You will find 4 generous, versatile bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with large en-suite WC and the accommodation is completed with a modern, good-sized family bathroom with overhead shower. There is a large walk-in utility area in the hallway and an abundance of closet and storage space throughout, including a large external store.

This exclusive property boasts a well maintained and recently extensively upgraded Leisure Suite for residents and guests and comprises a Steam Room, Swimming Pool, Gymnasium and Snooker Room. There is also a Library as well as a communal refuse chute and designated store rooms. There is a designated owner's car parking space outside of the building and there is also communal parking for guests available within the grounds. Pristine and spacious communal landscaped gardens surround the building and include a private patio area with seating.

This property is well-located, just a short distance from the town centre and main-line train station, schools and High Street amenities. The town centre benefits from an array of retail outlets, cafes, bars and restaurants, plus the famous foreshore and esplanade overlooking the Firth of Forth, a modern leisure centre, library and the Adam Smith theatre. There are wonderful beaches and parks to be found in the area. Kirkcaldy is an excellent location for commuting.
