The living room is located at the front of the property and features a bay window with three large original timber-framed sash windows that flood the room with natural light. Further features include a picture rail, ornate cornice and a ceiling rose. The adjacent room is currently used as a study and also benefits from an array of period features. Across the hallway to the rear is another well-proportioned reception room with a working cast-iron fireplace with marble surround. Twin sash windows provide a green and leafy view out to the rear garden. Next door, the dining room shares the same outlook and features two original built-in dressers and an open fireplace reveal. A doorway leads through into a galley-style kitchen fitted with an array of wall and base units with contrasting work-tops and stainless steel sink/fittings. A glazed door provides direct access out onto the rear garden, whilst beyond the kitchen is a useful separate shower room.
A staircase sweeps up to the first floor to four bedrooms: two at the front and two at the rear. The master bedroom is at the front of the property and has a feature fireplace and a large bay window providing a pleasant and open outlook over Chesterfield Road. Next door is a smaller single bedroom, whilst bedrooms two and three are at the rear and overlook the rear garden. A centrally positioned bathroom is fitted with a white suite, whilst a separate w/c is situated next door.
On the top floor are two further bedrooms within the eaves, both feature cast-iron fireplaces and dormered windows that benefit from roof-top views across St Andrews and beyond.

Presented in two sections consisting of a large paved patio/eating area with a laid lawn area beyond which in turn is bordered on both sides by an array of mature trees, plants and shrubs.
