Stunning Georgian house and coach house with immaculate accommodation and enclosed grounds
Location
Craignairn House sits in a prominent setting at the top of Ravenscraig Street, in a quiet residential area of Kirkcaldy. The street leads down to Ravenscraig Park with the Firth of Forth coastline beyond. The elevated setting provides the house with exceptional south facing views.
Kirkcaldy is a coastal town on the south Fife coastline, which provides all essential facilities including supermarkets, shops, schools, professional services and a hospital. The Fife Coastal Path is an attractive walk which links Kirkcaldy to Kinghorn and Aberdour. There are golf courses at Kinghorn, Aberdour, Kirkcaldy and Burntisland with a further selection of links courses along the Fife coast. St Andrews, the "Home of Golf", is 23 miles to the north.
Craignairn House is in a great situation for access to local amenities but it also offers fantastic commuting links into Edinburgh. The Forth Road Bridge is 20 miles away, with Edinburgh Airport and the city centre only 30 miles and 24 miles respectively. Kirkcaldy railway station is only 1.5 miles away, and is on the main east coast line which provides services to Edinburgh, Dundee, Aberdeen, and south to London. The Caledonian Sleeper offers a direct service between London and Kirkcaldy.
Services - Mains water, electricity, gas and drainage. Central heating provided by mains gas fired boilers, one for the main house and another for the coach house. Part underfloor heating to main house and coach house. Both buildings are alarmed and the main house has a service contract.

The accommodation is entered via an arched front door. The sitting room has double doors leading outside to the front, and an electric fireplace. The kitchen has fitted units, a Smeg oven, gas hob, integrated fridge and dishwasher. The adjacent utility room is plumbed for a washing machine, houses the Worcester high flow combi boiler and an under counter freezer. There is a separate WC. It has a door leading out to the side of the coach house, where there is an enclosed south and west facing patio area for outdoor entertaining with access to the generous storage rooms which were once stables.
The first floor has four bedrooms. One of them has a dressing room, along with an en suite shower room. Another of the bedrooms has an en suite shower room and an infrared sauna. There are two further double bedrooms and a bathroom with separate shower cubicle.
GROUNDS AND OUTBUILDINGS
A stone pillared entrance with electric gates leads into the property, direct from Ravenscraig Street. Next to this, there is a separate pedestrian gate with intercom with electric controlled access. An attractive cobbled drive, flanked by traditional feature street lamps, leads round to the rear of the house where there are further electric wrought iron gates. There are three separate garages with remote controlled doors, and one of which has a working pit. There is ample parking for further cars in the courtyard in front. There is a back door into the house from the courtyard, however cobbled paths lead around both sides of the house to the front door.
The grounds extend to about 0.5 acres, and are walled along the north, east and west boundaries, with fencing along the south boundary. The principal garden is to the front / south of the property. It is largely laid to lawn and surrounded by young shrubs and trees. To the east of the house is a decorative tiled patio area with pergola. There is a raised terrace outside the conservatory, offering a lovely area for evening entertaining.
