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. 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. Schooling is available in St Andrews and there are private options within easy reach including those at St Leonards in St Andrews and at The High School of Dundee.

General Description
Forming part of a small exclusive development surrounded by open countryside yet minutes from St Andrews, this stunning four-bedroom detached property with its exquisite finishes, abundance of space and light, and delightful gardens promises a wonderful family life. Designed to the highest standard throughout, a light-filled entrance vestibule equipped with useful built-in storage guides you into a spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area, the latter with French doors leading to the rear alfresco area and garden. Adorned with polished stone tiling, warm neutral tones, and oak doors, this warm and inviting living and reception space exudes a sense of relaxed comfort. Contemporary in design, the kitchen features elegant shaker-style timber wall and floor cabinetry complemented by solid stone worktops and high-spec integrated SIEMENS appliances along with a Quooker HW combined tap. A kitchen island dividing the kitchen from the dining area offers ample worktop space and is perfect for informal dining. With access to the garden the adjoining utility provides further storage. Glazed double doors then take you to a separate family room and a lounge creating a wonderful flow throughout the ground floor and providing versatile accommodation for a growing family. Flooded with natural light, each boasts two sets of French doors, with the lounge opening to the front and rear gardens, and the family room to the rear. Showcasing a tasteful interior design including oak flooring, they provide comfortable retreats to be enjoyed by friends and family alike. A convenient modern guest WC completes the ground floor before oak stairs ascend to the generously proportioned first floor. Here a luxurious carpeted principal double bedroom enjoys an unspoiled open outlook to the rear. Along with a walk-in wardrobe, it features an indulgent en-suite shower room adorned with a chrome towel radiator, Matki shower enclosure, Villeroy and Boch wall-hung hidden cistern WC, and wall-hung washbasin built into a recessed lit mirrored vanity. A second light-filled skylit double bedroom with floor-to-ceiling windows looking across the natural landscape also benefits from a spa-like en-suite shower room. The two remaining double bedrooms share access to a contemporary bathroom mirroring the style of the en-suites but with the inclusion of a bath in place of a separate shower. A large games room offers a variety of uses depending on individual needs and rounds off the internal layout.

Enjoying uninterrupted views over the surrounding countryside, the property’s rear garden with an alfresco seating area bordering an expansive lush lawn is ideal for family life, relaxation, and entertaining.
