Description

2 Coastguard Cottages is an exceptionally attractive threebedroom terraced stone cottage, quietly positioned just moments from Elie’s beautiful beach, harbour and the highly regarded Ship Inn. The property forms part of the historic Coastguard Cottages row sitting on the Fife Coastal path. It has been carefully upgraded to create a comfortable, stylish home currently being used as a family holiday retreat.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors. On the ground floor, an entrance hall provides access to Bedroom 3, single in size and ideal as a child’s bedroom or home office. The hallway leads through to a generous and bright modern dining kitchen, fitted with contemporary units, wood effect laminate worktops, patterned splashbacks, electric induction hob, integrated appliances and offering ample space for family dining.

French doors open from the kitchen into the lounge, a warm and welcoming room including a charming feature fireplace. A further door leads directly out to the south facing garden, allowing easy indooroutdoor living.

On the upper floor, there are two spacious double bedrooms and a modern shower room fitted with Burlington sanitary ware and a large contemporary shower. Both bedrooms are well presented and light-filled, with the master having built in wardrobes and a sea view.

Externally, the property enjoys a rear garden, mainly laid to lawn with a small terrace area ideal for outdoor seating. The cottage also benefits from two dedicated parking spaces at the entrance, an increasingly rare asset in this central village location.
