A bright ground-floor flat with main-door access, two double bedrooms and private front and rear gardens. The living/dining room and bedrooms benefit from large windows and double glazing, creating a comfortable, naturally lit home in historic St Andrews. Gas central heating and an EPC C give year-round practicality.
The layout is straightforward and ready for updating to your taste — the kitchen has fitted units and generous worktop space, while an internal store cupboard adds useful storage. At around 710 sq ft, the flat is an average-sized, low-maintenance option for first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors seeking strong rental demand in a university town.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and a cheap council tax band. The location is quietly residential yet close to local amenities, bus routes and the university, making it convenient for everyday life and for letting to students or professionals.
Buyers should note the local area is classified as very deprived, and the property presents scope for modernisation rather than turnkey luxury. Gardens and external finishes are modest in size and will require routine upkeep. These points temper price but also present potential to add value with modest investment.
