A seven-bedroom villa, once a manse occupied by former prime minister Gordon Brown, is now for sale.

The house on Kirkcaldy’s East Fergus Place is being marketed by Morton Napier at offers over £800,000.

Following a recent extension, the house has been modernised to a high standard, with re-wiring, re-plumbing, a new boiler and central heating system and re-plastering throughout.

However, the house does contain many of its original features.

Planning permission has also been granted for a garage, gym and indoor swimming pool.

Entering the house through the vestibule, you are greeted by a hallway with access to a sitting room and an ensuite bedroom.

The house is in a prime central location within the West Primary School and Balwearie Secondary School catchment areas.

Having the town centre on its doorstep means close access to varied amenities including bus and rail stations, the Adam Smith theatre, Fife College and Beveridge Park.

The Fife Retail Park and the A92 link road to the M90 are just a short drive away.

Elsewhere, a £1.3 million Lundin Links mansion with a private entrance to a stunning golf course has gone on the market.
