SITUATION
The Birches is located near to the village of Thornton and the popular Fife town of Kirkcaldy. It is very well positioned for the commuter and benefits from a comprehensive offering of services and amenities in Kirkcaldy including several large supermarkets, shops, banks, health centres, restaurants, pubs and hospital. Kirkcaldy Farmers Market is a regular event selling high quality Scottish produce. A wider offering of amenities is available in Glenrothes and Dunfermline which are both close by, with St Andrews, Perth, Dundee and Edinburgh all within comfortable driving distance. There is also easy access to the lovely quaint villages of Fife’s East Neuk such as Crail, Anstruther, Pittenweem and Elie, whilst the glorious countryside and coastline in the area comprises a lovely mix of rolling hills, woods, farmland, river and beaches offering considerable scope for the outdoor enthusiast with walking, riding, cycling, sailing, shooting and fishing all readily available along with an abundance of wildlife. It is the game of golf for which Fife is best known with many highly rated courses in a comparatively small area including the Old Course at St. Andrews which plays regular host to the Open Championship along with the likes of Balbirnie, Ladybank, Lundin Links and Crail. Accessibility is excellent with the centre of Edinburgh only 30 miles distant by road. There is a main line railway station in Markinch and Kirkcaldy, whilst Edinburgh Airport is about 25 miles from the house. Primary and secondary schooling is available locally with independent schooling available at St. Leonards in St. Andrews and the High School of Dundee, along with several highly rated schools in Perth and Edinburgh
