A luxurious three-bedroom apartment found within a majestic Victorian baronial mansion near Edinburgh has just gone on the market.
The property, located within the idyllic Inzievar House, even has epic views of the surrounding countryside including looking out to the Forth Bridges. Priced at offers over £295k, 4 Inzievar House has its own private entrance and separate garden area.
Filled with incredible period features, the house dates back to 1856 and is found near to the picturesque village of Oakley in Fife.
Estate Agents Galbraith said: "The local village of Oakley provides ample amenities including a Health Centre, Chemist, Post Office and a variety of shops for everyday necessities as well as primary and nursery schooling."
They added that the nearby M90 Motorway also provides direct links to Edinburgh and Glasgow.
The grand house was designed and built by renowned architect David Bryce, who is considered the most distinguished and ablest exponent of the Scottish Baronial style and is best known for Fettes College and the Royal Infirmary in Edinburgh.
The original owner of Inzievar House was Archibald Smith-Sligo, a wealthy landed gentleman who owned coal mines and the Forth Ironworks at Oakley, with Jules Verne, the French author who pioneered the science-fiction genre, also said to have visited the house, which he called Oakley Castle.
The team at Galbraith added: "The beautiful rolling countryside around 4 Inzievar House is home to an array of wildlife and offers
great scope for the outdoor enthusiast with walking, riding and cycling all available nearby along with clay shooting and archery.
"There are opportunities to play golf including courses at Muckhart, Dollar and Saline. Hill walking on the Ochil Hills and fishing on local rivers and reservoirs are also popular attractions."
