Situation

6 Balone Steading is an outstanding, spacious single storey family house standing in a wonderful quiet secluded leafy setting close to the Duke’s Golf Course at Mount Melville on the western outskirts of St Andrews. This charming tranquil property is just a short distance away from all the buzz and energy of the vibrant centre of St Andrews, and is close to the popular grounds of Craigtoun Country Park. From 6 Balone Steading it is a delightful walk into central St Andrews along the Fife Pilgrim Way, through areas of woodland and along the medieval Lade Braes. The nearby Duke’s Course is owned by Kohler Company who also own The Old Course Hotel. It is a stunning challenging parkland course with superb views over St Andrews.

Balone / Mount Melville is a quiet, hamlet-style area on the edge of St Andrews. Whilst enjoying all the benefits of the town, the house is away from the noise and traffic of the lively student areas whilst still being in easy reach of all the fantastic amenities of the “Auld Grey Toon”. St Andrews is renowned worldwide as the home of golf. There are now seven golf courses at St Andrews including the Old Course, regular host to the Open Championship which will next be staged there in July 2022. There are many other golf courses in the area including two courses at St Andrews Bay, Kingsbarns, Crail, Dumbarnie, Ladybank and Elie. The University of St Andrews is one of the oldest in Britain (founded in 1413) and attracts students from all over the world. The town benefits from a cinema and a theatre. It provides good state schooling at the brand-new Madras College campus and private coeducational schooling at St Leonards. The High School of Dundee is within easy reach. Beyond St Andrews is the East Neuk of Fife with its spectacular coastline which boasts fishing villages built around picturesque harbours and sandy unspoilt beaches. Leuchars railway station (4 miles) is on the main Aberdeen to London line and connects to Dundee and Edinburgh. Edinburgh Airport is only 50 miles away.
