SITUATION
Harlswynd Farm enjoys a highly scenic, rural setting some 2 miles to the south of the highly desirable village of Ceres and about 8 miles from the historic and extremely popular town of St Andrews, in the county of Fife. St Andrews provides excellent day-to-day facilities including supermarkets, a broad range of retailers, professional services, schooling as well as being the home to Scotland’s oldest University. Dundee lies some 16 miles to the north-east offering extensive services and facilities including two universities and airport, whilst Cupar lies some 5 miles to the north with a very good range of day-to-day amenities and services including a secondary school, independent retailers, supermarkets and sports facilities. Edinburgh can be reached in just over an hour’s journey by car with its international airport and wide array of museums, art galleries, restaurants and retail providers.
Fife is a county offering great amenity. St Andrews, the home of golf, offers numerous golf courses, including the world-renowned Old Course. As a coastal county there is a superb collection of beaches and coastal walks including the Fife Coastal Path running from Newburgh, onto St Andrews, through Elie and ending at the Kincardine Bridge. There are delightful fishing villages, numerous historical houses open to the public and a distillery at Kingsbarns.
DESCRIPTION
Harlswynd Farm is a delightful rural property, extending to about 41.5 acres (16.7 hectares) in total and centred on three terraced dwellings with traditional stables, kennels and further outbuildings. Enjoying a south facing aspect, the dwellings and buildings lie at the core of the subjects, surrounded by the land giving superb amenity with a ploughable grassland field to the north and further potential grazing with stream within the mini-glen to the south.
The three terraced dwellings are of principally traditional stone and rendered construction with slate roofs and provide extensive accommodation with good sized rooms over two floors. Subject to obtaining the necessary consents the houses
offer the potential to be re-modelled to create a principal house of scale or a principal house with annexe. The houses have been partially refurbished in recent years, including the replacement of some windows, roof repairs and installation of wood burning stoves.
The accommodation of the 3 dwellings comprises:-
Harlswynd 1
Ground Floor: Porch, Kitchen, Sitting Room and Dining Room
First Floor: 3 Bedrooms and Bathroom
Harlswynd 2
Ground Floor: Kitchen and Sitting Room
First Floor: 2 Bedrooms and Bathroom
Harlswynd 3
Ground Floor: Sitting Room, Kitchen and WC
First Floor: 3 Bedrooms, Bathroom and Box Room
Outbuildings
Harlswynd Farm benefits from a good range of outbuildings. Lying immediately to the east of the houses are the traditional stables which are of stone construction with a part-harled exterior under a slated roof and providing six loose boxes, hay store, and tack room. A range of kennels lie immediately to the north of the houses and are a single-storey range of buildings of a combination of brick and stone construction (painted) lying under a combination of slate and corrugated metal roofing. They provide kennels, wash bay and kennel run with concrete floor and stone and brick walls with metal railings.
Lying to the west are three detached outbuildings.
General Storage Building One
Of brick/rendered construction under corrugated metal roof.
General Storage Building Two
Of brick/rendered construction under corrugated metal roof.
Timber Pole Barn
The Land
Harlswynd Farm is a ring-fenced unit extending to about 41.5 acres (16.7 hectares) in total with a farm track leading directly from the minor public road to the east leading directly to the houses and buildings. The farmland is principally classified as Grade 3.2 by the James Hutton Institute, with the grassland grazing field (about 27.82 acres) lying on the north side of the yard benefitting from a south-facing elevation. There are two fenced paddocks lying immediately to the north of the kennels. Lying to the front of the terraced houses is an extensive area of rough grazing with a stream running through, but following a programme of improvement this area could provide a useful further grassland field, or alternatively could be developed to provide a more natural and wildlife-friendly parcel of ground providing great amenity to the subjects with tree and hedging additions.
