This ground-floor, three-double-bedroom flat offers single-level living close to East Sands and St Andrews town centre — a solid choice for a first-time buyer seeking space and convenience. The accommodation is bright and well presented, with a lounge featuring a fireplace, a dining kitchen with direct access to the rear garden, and built-in storage in each bedroom. Gas central heating, double glazing, and an economical council tax band add to everyday practicality.
Outside there are low-maintenance front and rear gardens and the realistic opportunity to create off-street parking from the front garden subject to a lowered kerb and necessary planning consents — a useful value-add in this area. The property is freehold and extends to about 894 sq ft, offering an average-sized footprint with six main rooms laid out in a traditional plan.
Buyers should weigh local context: the wider area is classified as outer-city hardship/very deprived and the immediate neighbourhood is described as constrained renters. On-street parking is currently limited, and any driveway would require planning work. That said, strong mobile signal and fast broadband suit home-working and modern living, and the flat’s location keeps shops, bus links, university facilities and beaches within easy reach.
Overall this is a practical, move-in-ready ground-floor flat with short-term comfort and clear scope to improve value (parking creation, cosmetic updates). It will particularly suit first-time purchasers wanting a roomy, single-level home near St Andrews amenities, or buyers who value proximity to the beach and university without needing a loft or upper-floor access.
