Sleeps 10 - A wonderful 4 storey historic townhouse in the heart of St Andrews which has been tastefully renovated and refurbished over recent months. The end result is a fabulous property full of original features and traditional details but fully equipped for modern living.
The house lies towards the eastern end of South Street close to the historic cathedral and surrounded by many properties still occupied by the University. At this point South Street is a wide tree-lined boulevard with generous pavements and an almost continental feel. All that the town centre has to offer by way of shops, bars and restaurants is only a few steps away but despite that the house is located in a more tranquil part of the town centre.
There is a generous living room and separate dining room on the first floor with both rooms overlooking South Street and also on this floor is the beautifully refitted kitchen. The rooms on the first floor make wonderful use of the original exposed stone walls.
On the second and third floors the sleeping accommodation is extremely flexible with 4 double bedrooms that can either be super king size or twin bedded and two further single bedrooms, one bedroom has an en-suite shower room and there are two further shower rooms.
On the ground floor there is a generous entrance hall with a golf club storage area and through the utility area there is access to an outside courtyard area with seating.
This is a very special house for your special trip to St Andrews.
59 South Street's entrance lies next to The Crystal Shop and through the front door you enter into a lovely original tiled porch area and then on into a generous entrance hall. This area has been fitted out with golf club and shoe storage areas. If you walk past the bottom of the staircase through the door there is a small utility area with a washer/drier and some storage cupboards. Beyond this is access to the rear courtyard area which provides a sheltered and private outside space for the warmer months.
Take the impressive original staircase to the first floor and this is where you will find the property's public rooms.
There is a generous living room with large windows overlooking South Street, with working timber shutters. The room has comfortable seating for up to 10 and there is a smart TV with Sky including the Sports channel. Next to the living room is a lovely dining room with a table for 10 and a cupboard for the storage of glassware, crockery,..etc. Finally on the first floor is the newly fitted kitchen with contemporary furniture and fittings in a very traditional space complete with original exposed stone walls. The kitchen has all the equipment that you would expect including, oven, hob, microwave, dishwasher, two fridges, nespresso machine and breakfast table and seating area. This part of the house gives great space for your party simply to enjoy being in such a lovely part of the town centre.
