Beach View has to be seen to be truly appreciated. It sits overlooking the working part of St Andrews harbour where a small fleet of inshore boats land their daily catch of lobsters and crabs. The first floor main living area overlooks the harbour, the historic pier and out into St Andrews Bay which is an ever changing view - all of this can be enjoyed from a balcony accessed beyond the patio doors of the living room.

The house has been tastefully renovated to an extremely high standard and is a luxurious and beautifully equipped base for any number of different holiday types. You are no more than 10 minutes walk from the centre of St Andrews with all that it has to offer and equally you can be on the first tee of the Old Course in 10 minutes walking along the coastal path past St Andrews Castle. The East Sands beach is one minute from the house.

The house has a ground floor garage with electric door accessed off the harbour side which provides secure parking and there is further parking available on the street.

Access is either from Shorehead which brings you in at first floor level or through the ground floor garage. On entering off Shorehead there is a small hall with a WC cloakroom and stairs down to the garage and up to the bedrooms.
