General Description
This beautifully presented four-bedroom property in the small village of Peat Inn, famous for its Michelin-starred restaurant, has been thoughtfully extended and upgraded by the current owners to create an outstanding rural residence close to St Andrews and Cupar. A whitewashed façade with sage green window trims creates an enchanting first impression, leading to an inviting east-facing covered porch and seating area perfect for enjoying the morning sun. From here you step into a well-appointed and sizeable utility/cloakroom, ideal for storing boots and outerwear. Adjacent, the heart of the home unfolds in a beautifully designed dining kitchen. This bespoke space with underfloor heating, features soft green cabinetry, butcher block worktops, and high-spec integrated appliances that include an American-style fridge/freezer, eye-level grill and oven, and a hob set within a central island with seating for two. Adorned with a refined décor, the dining area features an open fireplace, creating a warm and welcoming ambiance for entertaining or relaxed family meals. From here, a seamless flow takes you into a stunning triple-aspect sitting room, where natural light floods through an expansive picture window overlooking the garden. A fully glazed door opens onto the alfresco seating area, while herringbone carpeting, a soft colour palette, and a cast iron log-burning stove lend the space a sense of warmth. A versatile study, accessible from the sitting room, provides the perfect spot for home working or quiet reading. The stylish hallway, finished with elegant wooden flooring, leads to two generously sized carpeted double bedrooms each filled with natural light. One enjoys views of the surrounding landscape, the other of the garden. Comfortable and inviting, one benefits from a sleek, modern en-suite shower room featuring underfloor heating, a chrome towel radiator, WC, and washbasin built-into vanity. There is in addition, a well-appointed family bathroom with underfloor heating, a bath, separate shower enclosure, WC, and a countertop basin. Adding to the ground floor’s appeal is a magnificent dual-aspect lounge facing south and west, with French doors opening to the garden. Sash-and-case windows frame idyllic views, while a crisp colour palette enhances the sense of light and space, and an open fireplace set within a stone hearth provides a rustic focal point. Upstairs, the converted attic reveals a luxurious principal double bedroom, an enviable retreat complete with a walk-in wardrobe and a spa-style en-suite bathroom. This indulgent space features underfloor heating, a freestanding bath, shower enclosure, WC, and countertop basin, all finished in a chic monochrome scheme with marble and geometric tiling, and matte black accents. A second, light-filled double bedroom on this level is equally tasteful, providing a calm and restful space for family or guests.
A planning application has also been submitted for a proposed annex on the side of the house (see plan below)
