The five-bedroom home further boasts multiple reception rooms, including a statement breakfasting kitchen, two contemporary bathrooms, ample private parking, and magical gardens that will please the entire family. Exclusive and rarely available, the residence offers a highly sought-after rural lifestyle, surrounded by open countryside with spectacular views as far as the eye can see. Part of a small farm community, it offers a real sense of seclusion, yet it is less than a five minutes’ drive from Kingsbarns village, where a selection of amenities and a stunning beach await.

Decorated in dark olive tones and with white detailing, it is a delightful room for spending time with the family. A dual-aspect conservatory provides another space for relaxation, one that is perfect for soaking up the garden ambience whatever the weather.

The open-plan breakfasting kitchen/dining room is a focal point of the home, enjoying a tremendous footprint and triple-aspect windows. It is designed around a central island with a breakfast bar and it features an eye-catching combination of modern white cabinets and chunky wooden worktops.

Each room has generous dimensions for a wide choice of bedside furnishings and all the rooms (except bedroom three) have excellent built-in wardrobe storage. Similarly, most the rooms have dual-aspect windows as well, heightening an airy ambience. Plus, the fourth bedroom has the advantage of a fitted washbasin. Bedrooms one to four are on the first floor, off a brightly lit landing that allows extra light into the home, whilst the fifth bedroom is easily accessed on the ground floor.
