Hillside House is a substantial five-bedroom Victorian country home set within circa 3.5 acres of mature garden and grounds, positioned close to Cupar and St Andrews. The house retains generous period proportions — bay windows, high ceilings and large rooms — and includes a ground-floor bedroom with en-suite, four further double bedrooms upstairs, and three bathrooms overall. Several outbuildings and a sweeping driveway add to the property’s rural charm and utility.
Planning permission (21/03083/FULL) has been granted to convert the former stables into an ancillary dwelling (coach house), presenting clear potential for additional accommodation or income. The extensive plot and outbuildings also provide scope for further redevelopment (subject to consents) and for buyers seeking outdoor space or equestrian/hobby uses.
The house has many attractive features and comfortable living spaces, but it is described as a fixer-upper in parts with a neglected exterior and some renovation required. Practical points to note: EPC rating D, council tax band E (above average), average mobile signal, fast broadband and mains services. These facts make the house a strong proposition for a family seeking long-term comfortable living in a rural setting or for a purchaser wanting to add value through sympathetic refurbishment.
A viewing will suit buyers prepared to invest in updating and maintenance to unlock the property’s full potential. Its proximity to village amenities in Ceres, the market town of Cupar and St Andrews makes it convenient for schooling and cultural life while preserving a tranquil countryside setting.
