Slow broadband speeds; mobile signal is excellent
Council Tax Band F (expensive) and area classed as deprived
Set on a quiet residential street just a short distance from St Andrews town centre and beaches, this three-bedroom detached home offers generous accommodation across multi-level living. The ground floor is bright and airy with a large lounge, family room overlooking the garden, two double bedrooms and a practical wet room. An attached garage with rear workshop and a low-maintenance paved front garden complete the exterior. The house is freehold and well positioned for local schools, transport and leisure.
The property is best suited to buyers seeking space and potential rather than a fully finished home. The upper floor is currently flexible storage/attic space with clear scope to convert into additional bedrooms or living accommodation, subject to building regulations. The kitchen and interiors will benefit from updating to create a modern, efficient layout and finishes.
Practical drawbacks are factual: council tax is high (Band F), broadband speeds are reported slow and the property sits in an area described as relatively deprived. The wet room is accessible but there is only a single bathroom facility. Despite these issues, the house’s size, garden, garage workshop and proximity to St Andrews’ amenities represent strong value for a purchaser prepared to invest in refurbishment.
