This newly upgraded top-floor flat in central St Andrews offers practical, low-maintenance living with immediate move-in appeal. The accommodation includes a spacious living/dining room, a breakfasting kitchen with fitted units, two double bedrooms (one with a wardrobe) and a modern bathroom with an overhead shower. Recent refurbishment and included appliances and fittings reduce upfront work for a new owner.
Set within well-kept grounds and residents’ parking, the property sits within easy walking distance of the university, shops, commuter links and East Sands, suiting students, professionals or first-time buyers who want town and coast close by. Double glazing and an EPC C rating reflect reasonable thermal performance for the building’s era.
Buyers should note practical running and local costs: the flat uses electric heating, which can be more expensive than gas, and council tax is above average. The development is a mid-late 20th century block with an average overall size (approximately 654 sq ft), so space is functional rather than expansive. The surrounding area is described as deprived in broader statistics, although the immediate neighbourhood is cosmopolitan and amenity-rich.
Overall this freehold flat presents a straightforward, low-maintenance home or rental opportunity in a highly convenient St Andrews location. The recent upgrades reduce short-term maintenance, while the layout and included fixtures make it easy to occupy or let quickly.
