The Old Schoolhouse is within a residential neighbourhood so fairly quiet and peaceful and only a short walk to lovely local restaurants, cafes and the beautiful Loch Leven.
The property is located at the end of the High Street, the opposite end to the shops and most cafes, restaurants etc.
Kinross also has a Leisure Centre with swimming pool, a chemist, award winning butchers, beauty salons, 2 super markets (Co-op & Sainsbury’s) and a few play parks. The play park at Kirkgate Park (on the banks of Loch Leven) is very popular with young and older children.
