GARDENS The gardens are extensive and separated into 4 defined areas depending on the time of day: • The wooden raised deck area adjacent to the summer house is perfect for early morning coffee and breakfast as the sun rises to look out over the wild meadow and onto the Firth of Forth. • Drying lawn with beautiful plant beds that are in flower for the majority of the summer • Paved area outside the kitchen that has a fire pit and gas BBQ for the late afternoons and evenings. • Secluded decked area outside the cinema room All areas are presented with garden furniture of chairs, tables and outside electrical points and lighting. I love nothing better than pottering in the garden and I have built the front and rear gardens up from scratch. Most of the plants you see have either been grown from seed or small cuttings; you will find an array of summer flowers that attract some amazing wildlife none more so than the recently planted Wild Flower Meadow. This is an attractive area with beautiful cowslip, common sorrel, ox-eye daisy, red clover and meadow buttercups. There are also newly planted flowering Hawthorns, Golden Birch and Purple Leaved Cherry trees. Please avoid walking through this delicate, wildlife-rich part of the garden. PARKING There is ample parking either on the driveway for 2 cars or on the cul de sac for a further 2 cars. Please be mindful of our neighbour when parking on the cul de sac so as not to block his access in and out of his garage! ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Freezer - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 4 private bathrooms - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Rainfall showerhead - Shower ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Books - TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Office ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Blackout drapes - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near the sea ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Unit size: 2,390 square feet ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/75000000/74660000/74652000/74651993/e5bfaa0d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Spectacular ground floor apartment with unbeatable views across the Firth of Forth.
