Location - Take a step back in time to 17th-century Scotland when you view this exceptional Detached Family Villa in the historic village of Culross on the banks of the Firth of Forth. Culross is one of Scotland’s best-preserved and prettiest 17th-century villages famous for its role in the hit TV series Outlander, so fans definitely need to visit.
This home sits peacefully within the heart of this idyllic conservation village, a lively, friendly community, Culross is one of the most complete examples in Scotland of a Royal Burgh in superb setting of white-harled 16th and 17th century houses with red pan-tiled and cobbled streets and an ochre-coloured Palace with its beautifully reconstructed period garden at the centre of The Royal Burgh. Culross is a beautiful and historic coastal sea-port village dating back to medieval times yet lying just 12 miles west of the Forth Road Bridge and now has a vibrant social community for both adults and children with a small primary school, parks, eating places as well as a gallery, renowned Pub/Restaurant and pier. The village is served with good bus links and is within easy commuting distance to both Edinburgh and Glasgow. Dollar Academy is 14 miles to the north. The house is also well positioned for the Edinburgh Schools including Cargilfield Prep School, Fettes and George Watsons College, Edinburgh.
