Two storey period house with separate apartment below, in the coastal village of St Monans.
Description
Brae House sits less than 150 metres from the picturesque St Monans harbour, in an elevated position which allows for lovely views over the rooftops towards the Firth of Forth with East Lothian in the background. The property is thought to originally date back to the early 19th century, is Category B Listed, and comprises a four bedroom house with a separate lower ground level apartment with its own front door.
The main house (28 Station Road) has a generous parking area to the front with a single garage. Behind it sits an enclosed garden approached by stone steps which provides elevated views to the south. There is a central paved terrace which is a lovely entertaining area with views to the Firth of Forth.
The ground floor accommodation is all situated off a spacious, timber panelled, central entrance hall. The kitchen is open plan with the dining room and has a side door leading out into the garden. It is fitted with a range of kitchen units with integrated appliances including an electric oven, dishwasher and fridge. The dining room has a large store cupboard with three doors. There are two double bedrooms on the ground floor – both with fitted wardrobes – a shower room and a utility room. The sitting room sits above the kitchen and dining room on the first floor to make the most of the light and views with windows to the south, west and north. A set of double glass doors opens up onto the main landing. There are two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom situated off the landing. A timber staircase in a store room off the landing leads up to a hatch to the attic room above. This is a generous space and may offer the potential for creating additional living space subject to obtaining planning permission and Listed building consent.
The self-contained apartment (26 Station Road) is approached by its own front door on Station Road. The accommodation includes a sitting room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. A separate door, next to the apartment’s front door, gives access to the boiler room which contains the boiler for the main house and provides useful storage space.
Location
Brae House is a prominent house situated on Station Road which leads down to the harbour-front in St Monans. The house sits in an elevated position, and captures coastal views over the picturesque rooftops of the charming fishing village.
St Monans lies on the coast midway between Elie and Pittenweem and is the smallest village in the East Neuk of Fife which is the coastal area running from St Andrews to Largo Bay. It is famous for its sandy unspoilt beaches and fishing villages with picturesque harbours. St Monans was traditionally built around the fishing, boat-building and salt industries and retains its busy harbour used by creel and sailing boats.
St Monans is home to Giddy Gannet café, the award winning Craig Millar@16 West End restaurant and the East Pier Smokehouse. There is a shop, a hairdresser and fish sheds with extensive selections of fish, shellfish and local produce. The Fit to the Core fitness studios are at Bowhouse at the top of the village which also holds markets for local producers and is used as a concert venue during the St Monans arts festival in September.
The St Monans Tidal Pool is a historic outdoor pool on the edge of the sea and offers a great wild swimming experience. The Fife Coastal Path links the Forth and Tay bridges and runs alongside the historic St Monans Auld Kirk dating back to 1265.
Neighbouring Pittenweem is host to one of Scotland’s best known summer art festivals. The nearest secondary school is Waid Academy in Anstruther where there is also a Co-op supermarket. Elie, along the coast to the west, is a popular holiday destination with a wide, sandy beach. There are many golf courses in the area including Elie, Anstruther, Dumbarnie, Kingsbarns and Crail. St Andrews is only 13 miles away. A new railway station opened last year in Leven. Which is 11 miles away.
