Description
North Quarter Farmhouse is a beautiful property built in 1850 which enjoys a south-east-facing walled garden with lawns to either side.
The front door opens into a hall featuring a staircase and under-stair storage. To the left is a cosy sitting room with working shutters, ornate cornicing, a fireplace, and an Edinburgh press. To the right, the dining room also benefits from working shutters, a fireplace, and an Edinburgh press. There is also a library on the ground floor, complete with an mantelpiece and cornicing.
The kitchen has tiled flooring and features a traditional Rayburn and wall panelling. Beyond the kitchen is a utility room/kitchen fitted with a sink, fridge, washing machine, and oven. The room also comprises of a useful storeroom. The ground floor bathroom comprises a sink, loo, and a bath with shower over. From here there is a back door which provides external access to a contained walled courtyard area laid with paving and gravel.
On the first floor there is a landing with a storage cupboard. This level comprises four generously sized bedrooms, with Bedroom Three featuring two additional built-in storage cupboards. There is a family bathroom, fitted with a loo, sink, and bath with a tiled surround.
At mezzanine level there is a separate staircase leading down to an external door at the side of the property. This was used to provide independent access to the first floor when the owners used it as a self-contained flat.
Outside
To the front of the house is a garden with a low wall, central gravel path leading to the front door and with lawns to either side.
Outside the kitchen to the east of the house is an enclosed yard, used as a drying green. There is a door onto Main Street and an oil tank here. This yard connects to a grass courtyard to the rear with a high stone wall. This has double gates onto Main Street meaning cars can be parked here. There is a four bay open cart shed under a tiled roof and a separate barn.
Location
North Quarter Farmhouse is set in the heart of Kingsbarns, a sought-after village in the East Neuk of Fife. The village has a distinctive square, a primary school, church, a local pub and village hall which is the venue for community events.
The house is less than a mile from Kingsbarns Beach which is reached from the village by a lane through the golf course. Below the golf course is a beautiful sandy beach and a delightful walk up to Cambo House with its popular restaurant and famous snowdrop walk. Kingsbarns Golf Links plays host to the Dunhill Links Championship every autumn and is ranked highly in the top 100 UK Golf Courses.
Kingsbarns is about 71⁄2 miles south of St Andrews, the Home of Golf. There are now eight golf courses under the management of the St Andrews Links Trust, including the world-famous Old Course which next hosts the Open Championship in 2027. Other golf courses in the area include Crail, Elie, The Fairmont St Andrews and Dumbarnie. St Andrews is also well known for its university which is one of the oldest in Britain, founded in 1413. The town provides state schooling at Madras College and private schooling at St Leonards, and Dundee High School is easily accessible. The town has a fine range of shops, hotels, restaurants and recreational and cultural facilities which include a cinema, theatre, swimming pool, golf museum and castle museum.
Access by rail, road and air is good. Leuchars railway station is on the main Aberdeen to London line and provides a fast link to Dundee and Edinburgh and a sleeper service to London. Edinburgh Airport, with its increasingly wide range of domestic and international flights, is only 49 miles.
