Property Description
Welcome to Harcourt, a large three-bedroom single-storey house with a wealth of accommodation finished to high standards, offering a relaxed country and coastal lifestyle in prestigious St Andrews.
With bright and spacious accommodation, this single-storey detached house is an outstanding three-bedroom residence which is presented in move-in condition, providing buyers with an abundance of space and a blank canvas. The versatile property further boasts three charming reception areas, a quality kitchen and two washrooms. Plus, it has extensive private parking and a very generous, suntrap rear garden with a sauna. Located in the sought-after Hepburn Gardens conservation area of historic St Andrews, the home is close to open countryside, yet still within easy reach of the St Andrews town centre, the stunning local beaches, world-renowned golf facilities, and excellent amenities, as well as transport links and highly-regarded schools. It is an exceptional home that will have huge appeal to a broad demographic.
Framed by mature trees, Harcourt has a beautiful approach via a private driveway through the front garden. A double-door entrance ensures a welcoming and light-filled introduction, opening into a vestibule and central hall with generous storage and a WC cloakroom. From the outset, it is evident that Harcourt is a unique property, designed with a modernist feel.
Harcourt’s living room is a fantastic all-purpose space for relaxing, socialising, and entertaining. It has a very generous footprint, and is enhanced by crisp decoration and soft carpeting – an attractive look for new buyers. The space further boasts full-height windows facing the southeast to bring an abundance of natural light into the room, whilst framing delightful garden views. It is finished by a handsome feature fireplace. From here, bi-folding doors open into an adjacent dining room, allowing the two spaces to be used independently or united as one large space – handy for family gatherings. The dining room continues the appealing neutral aesthetic and it affords direct access to the neighbouring kitchen. In addition, there is a dual-aspect sunroom extending off the living area as well. This versatile space enjoys lovely leafy views and French doors flowing out into the rear garden – perfect for summer socialising. It also boasts a southerly-facing aspect capturing all-day sun.
The breakfasting kitchen has a modern design, which is generously appointed with handle-less cabinets and sweeping worksurfaces. It is appointed in cream and wooden hues, and has the benefit of a fitted breakfast bar for quick meals and morning coffee. It comes with an integrated oven, ceramic hob, and fridge/freezer, as well as space for an undercounter dishwasher; plus, it has a convenient serving area to the dining room – perfect for dinner parties. Furthermore, a utility room is next door, providing further storage and space for additional freestanding appliances, as well as internal access to the garage and a door to the garden.
The three double bedrooms all maintain the high standards of the accommodation, continuing the neutral décor and soft carpeting. The dual-aspect principal bedroom boasts an expansive footprint and built-in wardrobes with further storage above. It also enjoys direct access to the garden. The second bedroom is generously proportioned as well, and it features a washbasin for added convenience. Bedroom three, on the other hand, provides homeowners with further flexibility and the potential for use as a home office, if needed.
In addition to the WC cloakroom, Harcourt has a modern three-piece shower room, which features a storage-set washbasin, a toilet, a towel radiator, and a shower cubicle.
For year-round comfort, the property has gas central heating and double glazing. In addition, it has a large, floored attic that is insulated, providing a substantial space for storage and creative use.
Externally, the property has carefully landscaped gardens which wraparound the home, providing sweeping manicured lawns to the front and rear. Framed by established hedgerows and mature planting, the fully-enclosed rear garden is particularly impressive in its size and layout, providing the perfect space for families – complete with excellent privacy. It also has a patio for alfresco dining and a southeast-facing aspect for all-day sun. Ensuring private parking for several vehicles, there is a multi-car driveway and an integral garage which has useful access to the utility room.
Extras: all fitted floor and window coverings, light fittings, and integrated kitchen appliances to be included.
