Edinburgh-based developer Whiteburn is building 72 new two, three and four bedroom homes and 15 affordable homes in the grounds of the former Viewforth High School, on Loughborough Road.

They have starting prices of £240,000 for a three bedroom home, and £302,500 for a four bed.
Toria Jones, sales manager, said: ““We have already seen phenomenal interest during our pre-launch. We are very excited to have launched homes for sale, and buyers can now reserve their property off-plan.
“Viewforth offers contemporary and stylish living within an established residential area in Kirkcaldy. The development enjoys the most incredible views towards the Firth of Forth.”

She added: “Our key objective is to breathe new life into this part of Kirkcaldy and to create a great place for people to live.
Whiteburn Group has secured investment from the Housing Growth Partnership with an injection of £1.5million from its newly created £300m property fund for SME developers.
It is also the first investment by HGP that will contribute to the delivery of the new homes.
