Property description The property Milldeans House is a handsome period property, set in the heart of the rolling Fife countryside.

Both the sitting room bedroom enjoy south-facing sash windows welcoming plenty of sunlight, while sitting room and bedroom have open fireplaces with tiled surrounds. Additionally, the ground floor has a kitchen with fitted units to base and wall level and a stainless steel sink and drainer, plus space for all the necessary appliances.

The staircase leads from the reception hall to the first-floor landing with its skylight overhead, off which there are two double bedrooms. Both bedrooms face south, with views across the surrounding fields. One of the bedrooms features an original cast-iron fireplace, while the other has a door leading to a 27ft eaves store room, which has the potential for conversion, subject to the necessary consents. Throughout the house, the décor is neutral and understated, and could benefit from some modernisation.
