Thorntons are delighted to bring to the market this attractive, spacious semi-detached villa is positioned in an excellent location within a popular residential area of St Andrews but within a very easy walk or drive of the town centre with its university, shops, bars, restaurants, beaches, golf courses etc. It is also conveniently located for access to the local primary and secondary schools, leisure centre and East Sands beach. The property is presented in good order and it benefits from gas fired central heating backed up with sealed unit double glazing throughout. The accommodation comprises entrance vestibule, hallway with stairs to the upper floor, sitting room, kitchen and shower room. Upstairs there are three bedrooms and separate w.c. The front door opens into a large vestibule which provides storage space under the stairs and then a further door opens into the hall. The sitting room is a spacious room to the front of the property and a door opens to the kitchen. This is positioned to the rear of the property. It is well fitted with wall and floor units and a door opens to the rear vestibule where there is a large storage cupboard housing the boiler. The shower room at this level is accessed from the hall and equipped with a w.c and sink, and a modern shower cubicle fitted with wet walls and electric shower. Upstairs are the bedrooms and the w.c. Two bedrooms are spacious double rooms both with built in cupboards and fitted wardrobes. A further bedroom is found to the rear of the property also with a fitted wardrobe. The cloakroom is equipped with w.c and sink. From the landing there is a loft hatch with Ramsay ladder which provides access to the attic room. This has been floored and lined to provide a secure and dry storage room and, subject to the necessary permissions and planning consents, a stairway could be constructed to provide access and turn this into further accommodation. The property stands in good sized gardens. To the front the garden is separated from the road by a low ornamental wall, and is laid out with stone chips for ease of maintenance and to provide parking for two or more vehicles. The driveway leads to the side and rear of the house where there is a timber garage. A gate opens to the back garden which has an area of patio closest to the house and extends with an area of lawn and a drying green. To the bottom of the garden is a summer house with an area of decking in front of it which will catch the sun for the majority of the day. It is fully enclosed by fences and therefore makes for a secure environment for children or pets. EPC: D.
