Newmills is a popular coastal village situated approximately six miles west of Dunfermline City Centre. There are popular coastal walks, cycle paths and local shops. The site is accessed via Oakum Bay lane with residential neighbours and open protected space to the south.



The Royal Burgh of Culross, some 2.4 miles distant is a picturesque coastal village dating back to medieval times. 16th and 17th Century Culross was a thriving community and sea port, as evidenced by the architectural style of the village and surrounding properties of the period. The villages of Newmills and Culross, and their coastal paths look across the River Forth. For commuters, there is a fast network of roads leading to the Kincardine Bridge, Forth Road Bridges and M90 Motorway (Edinburgh/Perth). Bus services operate close by.

The property comprises dilapidated buildings and an area of land, which extends to approximately 0.13 hectares (0.31 acres) in total. We understand that the subject is the site of a former dwelling and farm steading historically used for agricultural purposes.



The buildings comprise a two-storey former dwelling and garage. The property appears to be of stone/brick construction, rendered externally. The roof is in a dilapidated condition.



Whilst the site was historically serviced until the mid 1990’s we are not aware of any current connections. Interested parties should make their own enquiries with reference to reinstating service connections.



The buildings are now in a poor state of repair and an asbestos survey is available from the selling agents. We have measured the outline of the buildings on Promap and this extends to approximately 3,270 sq.ft at ground level. The eastern boundary is part stone wall. A low stone wall forms the western boundary of the site but is currently largely obscured by vegetation.



We understand the garage was last used in the mid 1990’s as a garage for commercial purposes. We note there is an entry on the Scottish Assessors Association website with reference . From review of the Local Development Plan, the south section of the site is designated as Protected Open Space.
