This charming three-bedroom double upper apartment is ideally situated in historic St Andrews, within easy walking distance of the town's shops and amenities, its world-renowned university and golf course, and the scenic sandy beachfront. The HMO property offers bright, neutral interiors with a bathroom refitted last year and a shower room appointed in 2023. The common areas were also redecorated in 2024 and re-carpeted. The sunny enclosed garden is sizable and features a versatile bothy—a perfect retreat for guests or home working. The property spans the ground and first floors of a traditional sandstone terrace, with its own entrance that opens into a mosaic-floored vestibule and hall. The hall flows into a light-filled reception room for relaxation and dining. This carpeted space boasts an ornamental brick fireplace and plentiful recessed shelving. It also provides direct access to the kitchen, which opens onto the garden via a rear porch. The bright kitchen has an understated design in white and wood tones, accommodating a freestanding washing machine, microwave, gas cooker, and, in the reception room, a standalone fridge freezer.

St Andrews, Fife World-renowned for its ancient university, golfing heritage and stunning beach, St Andrews attracts more than half a million visitors each year and is regarded as one of the finest towns and best places to live in Scotland. Characterised by its narrow cobbled streets and beautiful architecture, the bustling town centre hosts a charming blend of independent shops and high-street retailers, plus diverse cafes, coffee shops, delis, greengrocers, butchers and bakeries. There are also several large supermarkets on the outskirts of the town. St Andrews enjoys international fame as ‘The Home of Golf’ – the game has been played at St Andrews Links for over 600 years, and the iconic Old Course draws thousands of professionals, amateurs and spectators from across the globe. Other tourist attractions include the 12th and 13th-century ruins of St Andrews Cathedral and St Andrews Castle, as well as St Andrews Botanic Garden. Excellent state schools can be found nearby; private schooling options include a Montessori nursery and St Leonards School. Situated in the East Neuk of Fife, St Andrews is approximately 30 minutes’ drive from Dundee and 90 minutes’ drive from Glasgow and Edinburgh. Excellent local and intercity bus links serve the town; daily direct flights to London are available from Dundee airport.

Completing downstairs is one of the three carpeted double bedrooms on offer, featuring cupboard storage and served by a shower room with a chicly aqua-panelled walk-in shower. The remaining two bedrooms are upstairs, accessed via a landing with a deep store, which had planning (now lapsed) for a fourth bedroom. Completing this level is an airy bathroom with a shower-over-bath and attractive patterned flooring. The property benefits from gas central heating and full double glazing. Outside, the generous rear garden is secure and southwest-facing. A lawn and seating areas sit beside a self-contained bothy with a lounge/kitchen (equipped with a fridge freezer, washer dryer, and cooker) and a shower room. There is a public car park nearby for parking. This property is currently on the market at the lowest price per square footage for a student HMO, 92sqm. The seller is graduating and leaving town. It is also unique in having a garden and the bothy as a guest residence.

Extras: The sale includes all fitted floor coverings, light fixtures, curtains (double-lined in the living room), and kitchen appliances in the primary residence and the bothy. Existing beds, wardrobes and living room furniture can be included, subject to negotiation.

Full profileProperty listingsHome Report
We have been helping Dundee, Fife, Angus and Perthshire families with their property needs for generations. Throughout our long history and through ever-changing property markets, we have always focussed on what our clients need, and delivered services built round them. From the 1960s onwards, Thorntons grew to become the largest Scottish-based solicitor estate agency in our operating area.  In the 1980s, we became the first local solicitor estate agent to open the now-familiar high street property shop.   A significant game-changing merger in 1990 transformed the estate agency landscape locally and the firm expanded, opening bustling property shops throughout Dundee and Angus. These property shops gave buyers and sellers their first experience of the one-stop shop’ approach by providing a full range of complementary estate agency and legal services. Building on these solid foundations the firm continued to grow and develop our offering for clients.  In the early 1990s we expanded into Perthshire.  Our most recent expansion has been into Fife in 2014 with mergers with the successful firms Murray Donald and Steel Eldridge Stewart. A number of key staff in our property team have been involved in the evolution of this highly successful operation over recent years.  They have witnessed the expansion of the firm’s market share in both existing and new build property sales, particularly evident in the boom years from 2004 to 2008.  During that period the residential property market provided tremendous opportunities for the firm to harness its strengths and invest for the future. During the less buoyant years which followed, we continued to move forward and prepare for the resurgence of activity in the property market.  Even when the market was at its toughest, we continued to invest in our people and systems to maintain our position and deliver the best service for sellers and buyers. The last 25 years have seen tremendous changes in market demands, with new technology and online opportunities opening up innovative ways for us to deliver services to clients. As well as extending our online client communication we have also invested strongly to provide late night and weekend openings. This ensures buyers and sellers can speak to someone in our branches who will be able to help – at a time that suits them. Our strong involvement with the local solicitors’ property centres continues and forms an important part of our offering.  We have also embraced newer nation-wide online platforms to give sellers the widest choice possible. We continually look to provide our services in an innovative and flexible way – always with the emphasis on what our clients need. And we look forward to building on our past as we continue to deliver top quality estate agency and property services across Dundee, Fife, Angus and Perthshire into the future. Phone Lines Open Monday to Friday 9am - 8pm Saturdays 9am to 4pm Sundays 12pm - 4pm
