An exceptionally charming period home in coastal St Andrews, this spacious detached residence combines authentic character with the flexibility and comfort required for modern family living.

Exclusive period home in highly coveted St Andrews

Brimming with authentic 1930s charm, Ypresville is a rare and outstanding proposition for families, complemented by excellent private parking and an enclosed, sun-filled garden that offers a beautiful space for recreation and entertaining. Ideally situated just a short drive from the historic heart of St Andrews and its sandy beach, the property also lies within easy walking distance of local schools and open countryside, striking the perfect balance of convenience and residential tranquillity.

Charming, homely spaces for relaxation and dining

Two elegant reception rooms lead seamlessly into a spectacular family room, all united by quality, warmly toned flooring.

The dual-aspect living room provides a bright yet cosy retreat, centred around a focal gas stove and boasting refined decorative detailing, along with an original pitch pine floor. These authentic features continue in the dining room, which is further enhanced by a focal gas fire in a tiled surround and a south-facing bow window framing leafy garden views. The family room is a light-filled vaulted area, offering a welcoming year-round environment with a Jotul Norwegian log-burning stove and sliding doors with plantation shutters that extend the space onto a sheltered seating deck. This room enjoys excellent efficiency thanks to the heat-retaining stove, electric infrared heaters, and an insulated maple floor.

Open-plan kitchen and conservatory

The multi-aspect kitchen extends naturally into a timber conservatory, creating a sunny breakfast spot.

Blending timeless country style with modern functionality, the kitchen features cream and natural wood cabinetry with a central island, complemented by a Belfast sink and classic racing-green décor. Premium appliances include a Smeg range cooker and upright fridge-freezer, alongside an integrated Fisher & Paykel dishwasher. A generous adjoining utility room, with external access, provides further practicality with a freestanding washing machine, and an original ceiling-hung clothes pulley and double butler sink.

Four spacious bedrooms

On the first floor, a naturally lit landing leads to three spacious double bedrooms – all overlooking the garden – and a single bedroom, ideal as a quiet study. Each is comfortably carpeted and detailed with elegant picture rails, with useful store cupboards also provided on this level, including in the dual-aspect principal bedroom.

A bathroom and a shower room for optimum convenience

A bright shower room off the entrance hall provides guest access to a WC. Upstairs, the family bathroom enjoys natural light and offers a WC-suite, bidet, luxurious corner spa bath, and generous toiletries storage.

Enchanting south-facing garden

The south-facing enclosed garden forms a private sanctuary, with established greenery creating a wonderful sense of seclusion. A central lawn, charming summer house, pergola-topped seating terrace with open fire, and a covered deck combine to create an inviting space for family and friends year-round.

Superb private parking

A gated gravel driveway provides an impressive approach and leads to a detached single garage.
