- “An apartment is over £100 grand and a flat under £100k”, said my friend.
- Joking aside, there is no difference, call it what you will, the humble apartment/flat has served Fife well over the years.
- The average sale price of an apartment in Fife in 2021 was £137,940, making it an excellent first-time buyer purchase and buy-to-let investment.

The word ‘Apartment’ derives from the French word ‘Appartement’, which comes from the Italian form of the word, ‘Appartamento’. The core of that Italian word ‘appartare’ means ‘to separate’, as in ‘separate a building’.
