Description

Blinkbonny is a beautifully presented and generously proportioned five-bedroom detached bungalow. Set within an impressive and private south-facing plot in the peaceful hamlet of Easter Newburn, near Upper Largo, the property enjoys an abundance of natural light, sunshine, and warmth throughout the day. Surrounded by mature landscaped gardens and benefiting from open countryside views, it offers a wonderful balance of space, privacy, and modern comfort.

The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged across a single level, with a central entrance hall providing access to all principal rooms. At the heart of the home is an expansive family and dining area, featuring a fireplace with log-burner, and enhanced by large windows and French doors that open onto the garden, allowing natural light to flood the space while framing the surrounding views. This inviting room flows seamlessly into a bright and airy sunroom, which provides a further reception space and direct garden access.

The fitted kitchen is well appointed with an American Fridge Freezer and dual control electric Aga offering both style and practicality. The separate Utility Room is very practical with a double sized hot water tank and controls for the newly installed Air Source Heat Pump and Solar Panels meter. The overall layout is ideal for both family life and entertaining.

Bedroom one is generously sized and benefits from a dressing area with fitted wardrobes leading through to a modern en-suite shower room. A second double bedroom also enjoys fitted storage and en-suite facilities. Two further double bedrooms, each with built-in storage, are served by a well-appointed shower room and a separate family bathroom. The fifth room is currently arranged as a study, offering flexibility for home working or additional bedroom accommodation if required.

Externally, the property is surrounded by extensive, beautifully landscaped gardens, thoughtfully designed with lawn, mature planting and seating areas, creating a tranquil outdoor setting. In addition, there is a detached double garage, a separate external building currently used as a gym, and a driveway providing ample parking. The property further benefits from a private water supply, contributing to reduced council tax.

Blinkbonny can be approached via either the A917 from Elie or the A915 from Largoward, making it equally accessible from the East Neuk villages including Elie, Anstruther and St Monans, as well as Largo, Leven and St Andrews, which lies less than 10 miles away.

Upper Largo and the neighbouring village of Lower Largo provide a range of amenities including local shops, cafés and a primary school, along with access to beautiful sandy beaches and the scenic Fife Coastal Path. The area is renowned for its outdoor lifestyle, with excellent opportunities for walking, cycling, sailing and golf.

The nearby towns of Leven and Lundin Links offer a wider selection of shopping, leisure and schooling, while the historic town of St Andrews provides an extensive range of amenities including boutique shopping, restaurants, the world-famous university and internationally recognised golf courses. For golf enthusiasts, the property is particularly well located, being approximately one mile from Dumbarnie and Charleton Golf Courses.

The property falls within the catchment area for Wade Academy, with Madras College in St Andrews also easily accessible. St Leonards School in St Andrews is available nearby, with school bus services operating in the area.

Despite its tranquil setting, the property is well connected, with road links providing access to St Andrews, Cupar and Edinburgh, while rail services from Leven and Markinch offer connections to Edinburgh and beyond. This makes Blinkbonny an ideal choice for those seeking a peaceful countryside lifestyle without compromising on accessibility.
