Description

Lumbo Cottage West is one of a pair of semi-detached former farm cottages. It has been refurbished and upgraded to provide bright and spacious accommodation which extends to 1,361 ft2. There are new windows, a high quality kitchen and bathrooms and oak engineered flooring throughout.

The hall with its roof light provides an attractive entrance into the property. Off this steps lead down to the living room which has an exposed stone wall with a stove and underfloor heating. It has windows on three sides including two sets of French doors to the patio outside. The patio is fully enclosed by a glass screen which makes a lovely area for young children to play and for outside dining. The well fitted kitchen by Howdens is separated off the living room.

The three bedrooms are off an upper landing. Bedroom 2 has a built in shower. The principal bedroom has a French door to the front, a dressing room and en suite bathroom behind. There is also a family bathroom.

The utility room gives access to the back garden.

Garden and Grounds

Lumbo Cottage West is set in a 0.18 acre garden which is open in front with a landscaped, private garden behind.

There is a gravel parking area in front of the pair of garages (one of which belongs to Lumbo Cottage East). A footpath leads past hedges up to a terrace at the front door. There is a lawn beside.

The terraced, landscaped garden is behind the house and is given privacy by hedges dividing off Lumbo Cottage East. It has paved patios, flower beds and a drying green.

Location

Lumbo Cottage West has a rural setting just outside St Andrews. It is adjacent to Mount Melville which is a quiet, hamlet-style location. The cottage is away from the hustle and bustle of town whilst being only 2 miles from the shops, pubs and restaurants. There is a gate beside the cottage onto the Lade Braes footpath which goes through ancient woodlands all the way into the centre of the town.

The cottage is opposite the 14th green of The Duke’s Golf Course which can be seen through the trees. The Duke’s Course is owned by Kohler Company who also own The Old Course Hotel. It is a stunning parkland course with superb views over St Andrews, renowned worldwide as the home of golf. There are seven golf courses run by The Links Trust including the Old Course, host to the 150th Open Championship in 2022. Feddinch Golf Course (under construction) is adjacent and there are many other golf courses in the area including two courses at Fairmont, St Andrews Bay, Kingsbarns, Crail, Dumbarnie and Elie.

The University of St Andrews is one of the oldest in Britain (founded in 1413) and attracts students from all over the world. It is rated as the Best University in the UK for Student Satisfaction by the Complete University Guide in September 2021. The town also benefits from a cinema and the Byre Theatre.

Madras College has moved to a new site on the near side of St Andrews. There is private co-educational schooling at St Leonards. The High School of Dundee is within reach.

Beyond St Andrews is the East Neuk of Fife with its spectacular coastline which boasts fishing villages built around picturesque harbours and sandy unspoilt beaches. Leuchars railway station (4 miles) is on the main Aberdeen to London line and connects to Dundee and Edinburgh. Edinburgh Airport is 50 miles.
