Gardeners Cottage, Leslie Mains, Leslie KY6

Gardener’s Cottage is a truly special stone-built home, offering an exceptional opportunity for a multi-generational family seeking to live together while retaining flexibility and independence, all within one impressive property. Set within the private grounds of Leslie Mains on the edge of Glenrothes, this charming home dates back around 200 years and combines period character with spacious accommodation, including a separate two-bedroom bungalow that forms part of the overall sale.

The main house is arranged over two levels and provides generous living space ideal for a larger family. The ground floor opens with a welcoming hallway leading into a bright lounge with front-facing windows and a feature fireplace, creating a warm and inviting family living area. The spacious open-plan kitchen and dining room is fitted with ample base and wall mounted units, contrasting worktops, tiled flooring and plenty of room for family dining, making it the natural heart of the home. A newly fitted bathroom completes the lower level, finished with striking tiling, rustic-style bath, sink unit and w/c.

Upstairs, the first floor offers four well-proportioned bedrooms along with a family shower room and useful landing space. The flexible layout lends itself well to changing family needs, whether for growing children, home working or extended family arrangements.

Set within the grounds, the separate two-bedroom bungalow is a major feature of the property and perfectly suited for relatives wishing to remain close while enjoying their own private living space. The bungalow includes a modern fitted kitchen and dining area opening into a lounge, two comfortable bedrooms and a shower room, making it ideal for grandparents, adult children, dependent relatives or guest accommodation.

Externally, the mature garden grounds provide privacy, space and a peaceful setting for all generations to enjoy. A gated driveway offers ample off-street parking for several vehicles and leads to a double garage, currently used as a gym but equally suitable as a workshop, hobby space or additional storage.

Leslie Mains offers a peaceful private setting close to the historic town of Leslie and only a short distance from Glenrothes, combining rural charm with convenient access to shops, schools and transport links. Surrounded by woodland walks and riverside paths, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial family home designed perfectly for multi-generational living under one ownership.
