    About this property

    • Meeting House occupies a prime waterfront position within Pittenweem, with accommodation that capitalises on the uninterrupted sea views and provides the exciting opportunity for upgrading.

      The street entrance leads onto the first floor landing, providing access to a bathroom and the principal bedroom to the left. The bedroom features a dressing room, and has access to a private rear spiral staircase to the ground floor and patio. To the right of the first floor landing are two further bedrooms, which share a Jack & Jill bathroom. One of these bedrooms also leads out on to the mezzanine level overlooking the spacious sitting room below and has spectacular views out to sea through large double height windows.

      From the main entrance, stairs lead down to the ground floor where the reception rooms are located. To the left of the hall is the breakfasting kitchen with adjoining utility room. Off the kitchen is a rear hallway with spiral staircase leading up to the principal bedroom, and access outside to the rear patio. To the right of the hall is the dining room. The striking double height living room with mezzanine level is also off the main hall and features a pair of large sash and case windows which provide stunning views over the coastline. A feature fireplace lies between the two windows and provides a pleasing element of symmetry to the room. From the living room, there is a further rear hall, off which is another bedroom, cloakroom and side entrance.

      A private rear patio provides breath-taking sea views across the Firth of Forth and beyond. A separate garage with workshop space is located just to the north of the property on St Aidan's Road. It is currently in a derelict condition, but offers the potential for restoration.
