It is in a very convenient location close to the A92 in Fife, on the edge of the town of Cardenden and easily accessible to Dunfermline. The farmhouse has attractive outlooks over the land and the surrounding countryside and there is potential for the purchaser to upgrade some of the farm buildings.
