Description

Stone-built, detached former mill on the rural fringes of exclusive St Andrews, offering a wealth of living space, five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a separate WC, plus delightful gardens and a large private driveway.

Perfectly blending characterful features, contemporary finishes, and neutral décor, this stone-built detached house has been converted from a former mill dating back to 1802, offering an exceptional home on the rural fringes of St Andrews, with five bedrooms, multiple living areas, and three bathrooms (plus a separate WC). The house would be ideal for families, with flexible, multipurpose rooms, delightful gardens, and private parking, and has sought-after “upside-down” living, with the living areas on the first floor and the sleeping accommodation predominantly on the ground floor. In addition to enjoying a tranquil location surrounded by picturesque countryside, the home lies within easy reach of the outstanding amenities that St Andrews has to offer, such as wide-ranging shopping facilities, excellent schools covering nursery to secondary levels, the renowned university, world-class golf courses, pubs and restaurants, leisure and fitness facilities, and the beach.

Entrance – Welcome to The Granary

An entrance hall welcomes you into the home, leading through to a second hall, with both areas neutrally decorated and fitted with terracotta floor tiles. Both hallways offer space for coats and shoes, and the latter is accompanied by cupboard storage.

Reception rooms – Multiple living areas brimming with character

The living room is filled with sunny natural light through four southwest-facing windows, and it offers ample space for configurations of lounge furniture. A stone feature wall (with a homely Riva log-burning stove inset) creates a warming focal point, flanked by a wealth of display/book shelving at both sides, and exposed beams add further character to the space.

The neighbouring, equally sunny dining room has a glass adjoining wall with the living room, creating a wonderfully light and airy atmosphere, and provides the perfect space for sit-down family meals and dinner parties.

The fabulous garden room offers tremendous potential and options for use. It is currently being utilised as a games room, sure to be a hit when entertaining guests, and features a vaulted high ceiling with charming beams. The room has characterful stone walls and flooring, and it features a Jotul log-burning stove, as well as door leading out the front garden and French doors opening onto a patio in the back garden.

The final living area is the ground-floor gym, providing a fantastic opportunity for those who like to keep fit to have a space to workout at home. The airy, well-proportioned room has characterful exposed beams, Canadian oak flooring, and features wide French doors opening to the side of the house, and it could be utilised as an additional reception room if desired.

Breakfasting kitchen – Well-appointed and timelessly styled cooking zone

The kitchen comes beautifully appointed with a wide range of timeless Shaker cabinetry, spacious Minerva worktops, and neatly integrated appliances comprising an oven, a combination microwave, an induction hob with a tinted glass splashback, an extractor hood, a fridge, and a dishwasher, whilst an American-style fridge/freezer (housed in the garden room) is included. Provision is also made for a breakfasting/snug area, perfect for morning coffee and socialising while cooking. The kitchen is supplemented by a utility room (with external access) housing additional cabinetry and storage, a handy clothes pulley, and an Ebac washing machine.

Bedrooms – Five comfortable and multipurpose sleeping areas

The impressive first-floor principal suite comprises a spacious sleeping area with large triple built-in wardrobes, an en-suite shower room, and an adjoining study, offering an ideal space for those who work or study from home. The remaining bedrooms are on the ground floor and three are accompanied by built-in wardrobes, with the fifth currently being used as a music room. The sleeping areas are all tastefully presented with muted décor and fitted with warm oak-styled flooring.

Bathrooms – Three stylish washrooms and a separate WC, perfect for family life

The principal bedroom’s en-suite has a corner shower enclosure, a WC-suite, and a towel radiator, enveloped by marble-inspired tiling and lit by skylight window. The additional shower room is on the ground floor, tiled in stylish grey, and comprises a shower enclosure and a traditionally styled WC-suite. There is also a separate two-piece WC on the first floor. Finally, a four-piece family bathroom completes the accommodation on offer, tiled to match the en-suite and replete with a freestanding bath, a separate shower cubicle, a basin set into vanity storage, a WC, and an illuminated mirror.

Gas central heating (powered by a Worcester Bosch boiler and with Tado smart controls) and double glazing ensure optimum comfort and efficiency all year round.

Gardens & parking – Beautiful, mature outdoor space and a private driveway

The delightful gardens perfectly complement the house and wrap around the front, side, and rear. The back garden features a raised patio, perfect for alfresco dining furniture, an additional paved/gravelled area with a charming pond, and a wealth of established trees and shrubs, including a beautiful blossom tree. Multiple wood stores and a shed are also included. The front garden provides a wonderful first impression of the home with colourful, leafy shrubbery. A large private driveway offers parking for multiple vehicles.

Extras: All window coverings, light fittings, integrated kitchen appliances, American-style fridge/freezer, and washing machine will be included in the sale. The gym equipment, pool table, any logs in the wood stores at the time of sale, and a log splitter are available by separate negotiation.
