Description

SITUATION

Planners House is situated in a lovely harbour front situation in the East Neuk fishing village of St. Monans. In terms of local services and amenities the St. Monans area, along with nearby Anstruther and Pittenweem, provides for most day-to-day requirements with an excellent range of shops, restaurants and pubs as well as state primary and secondary schooling all nearby. About 12 miles to the north lies St. Andrews, the ancient and historic university town renowned worldwide as the “Home of Golf” and with the wonderful cosmopolitan selection of shops and facilities. Slightly further to the north-west lies the contrasting and bustling county market town of Cupar, with a full range of amenities and services to be found in the thriving city of Dundee to the north. Edinburgh is approximately forty-nine miles to the south.

Home to a wonderful array of wildlife, the delightful picture postcard coastline and countryside around St. Monans is perhaps some of the finest that Fife has to offer, making it the ideal setting for the outdoor enthusiast. There is easy access to a wide range of recreational pursuits including walking, cycling, riding, sailing and golf with many highly regarded courses within easy reach including Crail, Kingsbarns, Elie, Leven, Lundin Links and the many fine courses in and around St. Andrews. The East Neuk now benefits from a recently opened railway station at Leven and Edinburgh Airport is just over an hour from the property.

St Monans appeared in the Daily Telegraph ‘Britain’s 30 best seaside villages’ list, and boasts 2 award winning seafood restaurants, and is a short walk to the popular gastro shops at Ardross Farm shop and Bowhouse. As a seafood centre there are naturally excellent fish shops whose choice and freshness cannot be beaten.

The coastal path through Fife runs through St Monans between Elie and Pittenweem. On the route there are stunning beaches, and two tidal swimming pools.

DESCRIPTION

Planners House is an outstanding harbour front house constructed of rendered walls under a pitched pantile roof with crow step gables synonymous with East Neuk houses. The house is category B listed, dates from the 18th century and until the 1990s served as planning office for Millers Ship Yard, a legendary local boat constructor. Planners’ House had a top-to-bottom refurbish in 1999 when it was converted into a residence. The architect was careful to retain features such as interior alcoves, which give a special charm to the rooms. Views across the Forth are unrivalled.

The house offers flexible accommodation set out over 3 levels extending to circa 110 sqm (1,186 sqft) and it is suitable as a second home or a main residence.
