Situation
A short drive from the heart of St Andrews and minutes from the scenic Lade Braes, Lawhead Road West with its rear outlook across University Park, is a peaceful residential setting with modern convenience. Scotland’s world-famous home of golf and the site of the country's oldest university, St Andrews is a thriving town catering to students, golfers, and residents alike. There is an array of shops and amenities to meet daily needs including boutique and independent retailers selling artisan produce and goods such as St Andrews Bakery, Mitchell’s Delicatessen, and Leuchars Quality Butchers through to well-known high street stores such as Sainsbury’s Local. The property itself is within easy reach of a Morrisons supermarket and Marks and Spencer Simply Food as well as the community hospital. Thriving and cosmopolitan bars, restaurants, and cafès sit side-by-side offering fine dining through to casual lunches and drinks. Education at all levels is well-catered for and primary schooling is within walking distance together with the new Madras College. Positioned on the stunning east coast of Fife, St Andrews is the perfect location 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.

The ancient and historic town of 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 those at nearby 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 such as those at Elie, Tentsmuir, and Kingsbarns, all of which are just a short drive as is Craigtoun Country Park. St Andrews Botanic Gardens, Museum, 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 including Lawhead and Canongate Primary Schools, private options include those at St Leonards in St Andrews and The High School of Dundee and Madras College. 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.
