Set on the ground floor of a handsome Victorian semi-detached villa, this generous two-bedroom apartment occupies a prime Links Crescent position just 250m from the Old Course and within the St Andrews Conservation Area. High ceilings, bay windows, original encaustic floor tiles and a dual-aspect living room create a strong period character, while upgraded bathrooms with underfloor heating and a quality kitchen deliver comfortable modern living.
Externally the home benefits from a gated front garden, a peaceful south-west-facing paved courtyard and a detached single-car garage accessed from a shared driveway. The freehold tenure, generous 1,236 sq ft footprint and proximity to university, beaches and town amenities make the property suitable for owner-occupiers seeking a spacious period home or investors targeting short-term/student lets and holiday rental demand.
Notable constraints are factual: the property lies in a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood and an area classified as deprived, which can bring higher footfall, local activity and variable rental demand across the year. The EPC is rated D and broadband speeds are average, which may be relevant for energy improvements and some renters. Being in a conservation area will restrict external alterations and some planning changes.
Overall, this elegant ground-floor Victorian apartment offers a rare combination of period charm, generous living space and private parking in a highly sought St Andrews location. Buyers should balance the strong location and freehold status against conservation-area constraints and local area character when considering future changes or lettings.
