Property Description

*** Offers over £175,000 for the pair ***
1 and 2 Ballindean Farm Cottages comprise a pair of traditional two-bedroom stone cottages, offered together as a rare and highly attractive opportunity in a superb rural location near Cupar, surrounded by open countryside. Set within a small row of former farm cottages, the properties enjoy excellent accessibility and benefit from extensive garden ground, which appears to incorporate a corner of the adjoining arable field, offering significant scope for enhancement or redevelopment.

Both cottages are currently in very poor condition and are not readily habitable, presenting an exceptional opportunity for purchasers seeking a comprehensive refurbishment project or potential redevelopment opportunity, subject to the necessary planning consents. Internally, the properties are arranged over a single level and retain a number of appealing traditional features, including fireplaces, stone construction and generous room proportions, which provide an excellent foundation for reimagining the accommodation.

Prospective purchasers should note that significant works are required throughout, including an area within No. 1 where the ceiling has partially collapsed, and appropriate care should therefore be taken when inspecting the properties. Services include oil-fired heating systems, which are not understood to have been operational for a considerable period, and drainage via a septic tank.

Externally, the cottages sit within generous surrounding garden grounds, providing ample space for landscaping, extension or reconfiguration, subject to the appropriate permissions. A number of attached external store areas further enhance the flexibility of the site.
