Situation
16A Argyle Street is a most attractive modern property located centrally in St Andrews, the world renowned ‘Home of Golf’. The property is within easy walking distance of both the town’s cosmopolitan shopping district - which includes South Street, Market Street, Bell Street, Church Street and North Street - and also the historic golf links, ancient university, harbour and beautiful East and West Sands. The magnificent university town offers residents a superb mix of amenities and facilities, all of which are easily accessed from the property. The city of Dundee is some thirteen miles to the north with Edinburgh to the south. The East Neuk is nearby with its quaint picturesque fishing villages such as Anstruther, Pittenweem and Elie, whilst the bustling former county market town of Cupar is a short drive to the west. There is some particularly fine countryside and coastline surrounding St Andrews which includes a lovely mix of farmland, woodland, rivers, and hill ground. The result is home to an array of wildlife which provides an excellent choice for the outdoor enthusiast with walking, cycling, sailing, and riding all readily available. There are many highly regarded golf courses in the area including the Old Course at St. Andrews and the Championship Course at Carnoustie, both of which regularly host the British Open – most recently the 150th anniversary event was held at St Andrews in July 2022. St Andrews Links Trust have seven courses - the Old, New, Jubilee, Castle, Eden, Strathtyrum and Balgove. Other nearby courses include Dumbarnie, Kingsbarns, the Dukes, Crail, Lundin Links and Ladybank. In terms of days out Tentsmuir, Kingsbarns and Elie are a short drive away and offer good sandy beaches in addition to those found at St. Andrews itself. Popular National Trust for Scotland properties in the area include Kellie Castle, Hill of Tarvit and Falkland Palace. State schooling is available locally with independent schooling being provided at St. Leonards in St. Andrews and the High School of Dundee. Rail transport links can be found at Leuchars, Cupar and Ladybank. Dundee and Edinburgh airports are also well within reach.

General Description
Completed in 2020, 16A Argyle Street is a superb modern turreted townhouse with roof terrace, in an excellent central location. It forms part of an award-winning design by local MWP Architects. The development was built in a modern style which blends with the traditional aspects of the urban landscape of St Andrews with the sensitive use and juxtaposition of contemporary and traditional materials. The development offers well-appointed living close to the centre and is ideally positioned for both the university and the Royal & Ancient Golf Club. The impressive townhouse accommodation is spread over three levels with ground floor hall and utility room, two bedrooms at first floor level, and a stunning modern living space on the second floor opening onto a private west facing roof terrace. The circualr skylight window above the stair is a unique feature of the property.

Externally the property has a striking ashlar sandstone and smooth render finish with contrasting bronze zinc cladding and roof, and double glazed aluminium framed windows.
