Situation
Positioned peacefully on the edge of St Andrews close to the Botanic Gardens and only a short drive from the world-renowned Old Course, university and town centre, Menapia enjoys a sought-after residential setting. This bustling ancient and historic university town caters to a diverse community of students, golfers, and residents offering an array of shops and amenities to fulfil daily needs. From boutique and independent retailers such as St Andrews Bakery, Mitchell’s Delicatessen, and Leuchars Quality Butchers to well-known high street stores such as Sainsbury’s Local, Waterstones, Boots, and H&M, there is something for everyone. Bustling and vibrant bars, restaurants, and cafès sit side-by-side offering fine dining through to casual lunches and drinks. The property enjoys close proximity to a Marks and Spencer Simply Food, Morrison’s supermarket, and a community hospital. St Andrews provides comprehensive education at all levels including of course at its globally renowned university. Situated on the picturesque east coast of Fife, St Andrews is the ideal base from which to explore the characterful fishing villages that make up this scenic part of Scotland including Anstruther, St Monans, Crail, and Pittenweem. Dundee to the north is a thirty-minute drive and Edinburgh to the south is approx. 90 minutes by car or just over an hour by train from Leuchars.

St Andrews occupies a wonderful position on the east coast of Fife. Surrounded by picturesque countryside, woodlands, and beautiful coastline it offers much for the outdoor enthusiast with pleasant walk and cycle routes minutes away as well as opportunities for sailing, riding and days spent on the beach. There are world-renowned golf courses to enjoy including The Old Course at St Andrews and the Championship Course at Carnoustie. Residents can also discover nearby courses such as those at Kingsbarns, Crail, and Lundin Links. In addition to the breathtaking beach at St Andrews West Sands extending to almost two miles, there are several more to explore nearby such as those at Elie, Tentsmuir, and Kingsbarns, all of which are just a short drive. St Andrews Botanic Gardens, Museum, Castle, and Cathedral are just a few of the local attractions to explore and there are several National Trust properties in the area including Kellie Castle and Hill of Tarvit. State schooling is available locally and private options include those at St Leonards in St Andrews and at The High School of Dundee. An efficient bus service connects St Andrews to towns throughout Fife, and there are railway stations at Leuchars, Cupar, Ladybank, and Dundee. Edinburgh International Airport is within reach.

General Description
Located in a sought-after setting on the edge of St Andrews, this substantial detached four/five-bedroom family home with well-presented stylish interiors offers an abundance of space, light, and comfort. A gravel driveway, bordered by a manicured lawn, mature plants, and hedging, leads to fully glazed double doors that open into a bright and sizeable south-facing entrance vestibule. Featuring terracotta floor tiles, this inviting skylit space offers a peaceful spot to sit and unwind. From here, the welcoming hallway flows into an expansive dual-aspect living room that stretches nearly the entire length of the property. Flooded with natural light, it features sliding patio doors opening to the rear garden and south-facing bay windows overlooking the front. An ideal setting for relaxation and entertaining, it exudes warmth and charm with wooden flooring and a log-burning stove set within a stone hearth. Across the hallway, an impressive dining kitchen connects seamlessly to the rear garden and a sunlit conservatory. Thoughtfully designed, a change in flooring and a peninsula counter subtly distinguish the kitchen from the dining area, creating a perfect space for everyday living. The generously sized kitchen showcases sleek grey wall and floor units, Corian worktops with integrated sink, and a colourful mosaic-tiled splashback. High-spec integrated NEFF appliances include an eye-level grill, oven, gas hob, and extractor hood, ensuring both style and functionality. Built-in cupboards in the dining area offer additional storage. Adjoining, the conservatory with its panoramic garden views, is a versatile living and reception area that further enhances the property’s appeal. Completing the ground floor is a WC and a flexible south-facing double bedroom or office, featuring a large picture window overlooking the front garden and a log-burning stove set in an elegant cast-iron fireplace. Ascending the carpeted staircase, a spacious and light-filled landing leads to four tastefully decorated and comfortable double bedrooms. The south-facing principal bedroom, with its tranquil grey colour palette, includes multiple built-in cupboards for ample storage and a stylish en-suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms are equally appealing, sharing access to a contemporary family bathroom equipped with a shower enclosure, bath, washbasin built into vanity, and a WC. Additionally, a large partially floored attic with a VELUX window provides extra space, ideal for storage or potential future development.

Exterior

To the front, there is a neat southerly lawn bordered by mature plants and hedging whilst ample parking is provided for by the detached garage and gravel driveway.

The spacious rear garden boasts a neatly maintained lawn and sandstone paving, creating charming areas perfect for outdoor dining and relaxing. A desirable timber-clad garden studio (fully insulated) adds to its appeal and would make a peaceful home office, guest accommodation, or retreat for pursuing hobbies.
