Family house in stunning coastal setting on the Firth of Forth

Description

15 West Harbour Road is a detached family house, originally built in the 1970s. The house offers fully modernised living space with an integral garage, as well as fantastic entertaining spaces both inside the house and on the superb terrace overlooking the Firth of Forth.

The principal living space is situated on the ground floor, with most of the rooms enjoying the outstanding south facing views. The kitchen is open plan with the conservatory and has doors out into the garden. The kitchen fittings are by Magnet, and include fitted cabinets and counters incorporating a breakfast bar, while among the appliances are a Smeg range cooker with gas hob, Zanussi electric oven and Zanussi microwave. In the heart of the house is the dining hall which again has stunning coastal views, and opens up into the adjacent sitting room. A large single pane window overlooks the garden with the Firth of Forth beyond. Off the sitting room is a bedroom with doors leading out into the garden, and an en suite shower room. There is also a study and shower room on the ground floor. The staircase leads up from the dining hall. Situated off the landing are three bedrooms (one of which is currently used as a home office) and a family bathroom.

The principal garden at 15 West Harbour Road is south facing overlooking the Firth of Forth. The upper level is lawned, but steps lead down to a spectacular coastal flagstone terrace with unobstructed views. This has an installed hot hub (available by separate negotiation) and a dedicated barbecue and outdoor entertaining area. To the front of the house there is a second, recently landscaped, lawned garden overlooked by a raised terrace. There is also a generous parking area, off which the integral garage can be accessed. This has a utility room which also houses the hot water tank.

Location

15 West Harbour Road sits in an enviable position boasting panoramic views across the Firth of Forth. The quiet residential street leads to the harbour after which the road is named. Nearby are the landmark lime kilns dating back to the late 18th century, now protected A Listed monuments due to their importance in the Industrial Revolution.

Charlestown is a well serviced community with a doctor’s surgery and pharmacy, village store, cricket club, and hotel with pub. The nearby village of Limekilns further supports the area with everyday amenities including a gift shop, a mobile post office, church, café, hotel and bistro, and two pubs.

Dunfermline is about 3.5 miles to the north, and provides many leisure facilities and professional services, as well as local attractions such as the Abbey and the lovely Pittencrieff Park. There is a primary school in Limekilns and secondary schools in nearby Dunfermline and Inverkeithing. It is 15 miles to Dollar Academy and there are easy links to other independent schools in Edinburgh.

Charlestown is well connected, with the nearby M90 providing fast access to Perth and Edinburgh. Trains run to Edinburgh from Dunfermline and Inverkeithing. There are Park & Ride bus links at Inverkeithing (Ferrytoll) and Dunfermline (Halbeath) with regular services into Edinburgh. Edinburgh International Airport is about 16 miles away.

The region offers a range of outdoor activities such as sailing and other water sports and the popular Fife Coastal Path runs through the village. There are hillwalking and mountain biking trails in the Ochil and Cleish Hills along with riding schools nearby and for golf enthusiasts, several renowned courses in the vicinity.
