Description

68 North Street is a charming and well-proportioned three / four bedroom, two-storey terraced home, forming part of a traditional fisherman’s tenement in the heart of St Andrews. The property offers flexible and generously sized accommodation, combining period character with practical living and excellent development potential.

The ground floor opens into a welcoming entrance hall with useful built-in storage. A comfortable lounge with feature fireplace provides an inviting main living space and leads through to a versatile ground-floor room, ideal for use as a bedroom or home office, with direct access to a shower room. The ground floor also offers a fitted dining kitchen which is equipped with an electric hob and offers ample space for everyday dining and entertaining.

Upstairs, the accommodation continues with three well-proportioned double bedrooms, each benefitting from built-in storage. A further shower room and a separate WC serve this level. From the upper landing, a pull-down ladder provides access to a substantial shared attic space within the roof. Historically used for net making, this area presents an exciting opportunity to create additional bedroom or living accommodation via a dormer loft conversion, subject to the necessary consents.

The property further benefits from an HMO licence for three occupants (Licence No: F04879/23) and currently generates a rental income of approximately £2,300 per month, making it an attractive proposition for both owner-occupiers and investors alike.
