Kirkcaldy blends coastal charm, rich history and all the everyday essentials

Discover Kirkcaldy

Viewforth is situated on the north eastern end of the Lang Toun of Kirkcaldy, nestled in a quiet residential area. The town of Kirkcaldy has plentiful local amenities ranging from restaurants, cafes, bars, high street shops including a large retail park and the major supermarkets you’d find in any large town. Viewforth is also on the route of a weekly fish van from Pittenweem.

The town has many large parks, beaches, a harbour and a castle to explore, as well as the Fife coastal route on your doorstep. It is the home of Raith Rovers Football team, Fife Flyers Ice Hockey team, and the largest collection of Scottish Colourist paintings at the fabulous Kirkcaldy Art Gallery (and great scones).

Kirkcaldy is close to the A92 major link road, and the East Neuk of Fife.

The development is well placed for access to schooling at primary and secondary level, and the local Fife College is in the heart of the town.

The main hospital nearby the Viewforth development is the Victoria Hospital.

Local History

Kirkcaldy is situated on the east coast of Scotland, and is the second largest settlement in Fife, and ranks 11th most populous area in Scotland.

Viewforth High School first opened its doors to the pupils on 1 September 1908 with 176 boys and 194 girls enrolled in the school.  The school welcomed its first female teachers, during the first world war, due to the shortage of male teachers.

Some of our new house types are named in recognition of prominent Kirkcaldy figures.
