A stone’s throw from the picturesque and historic St Monan’s Harbour, 50 East Street enjoys an idyllic location on the East Neuk of Fife. Only twelve miles south of St Andrews this delightful village and fishing port is dotted with attractive 17th and 18th century fishermen’s cottages fostering a warm and friendly community. The village provides essential amenities with a convenience store, and a well-loved café, the Giddy Gannet. The restored 14th century parish church adds to the village’s character. Exquisite and award-winning dining is just minutes away at the East Pier Smokehouse and Craig Millar Restaurant. Nearby Anstruther boasts bustling bars, restaurants, independent boutiques, and of course its world-renowned fish bar. It also has an extensive Co-op Food. The family-run Ardross Farm Shop only a short drive from St Monans sells an array of local produce, and Bowhouse food hub hosts a monthly farmers market. Situated directly on the Fife Coastal Trail, St Monans is the gateway to the other pretty villages that lie along the coast, including Crail, Elie, and Pittenweem. Dundee to the north is a forty-minute drive and Edinburgh to the south is approx. 80 minutes by car or just over an hour by train from Leuchars.
Set amidst spectacular scenery and embraced by stunning coastline St Monans offers much for the outdoor enthusiast with pleasant walk and cycle routes along the Fife Coastal Path as well as opportunities for sailing, paddle boarding, riding and leisurely days spent on award-winning beaches. There are world-renowned golf courses to enjoy including the prestigious Old Course at St Andrews. Residents can also discover nearby courses such as those at Kingsbarns, Crail, and Lundin Links. St Monans benefits from a local bowling club along with a multi-use games area and tennis court. There are several breathtaking beaches to explore including those at Elie and Kingsbarns, both of which are just a short drive, and the area is famous for its historic tidal pools. National Trust properties include Kellie Castle and Hill of Tarvit and Pittenweem hosts a popular arts festival every August, attended by visitors from across the UK. State schooling is available locally and private options include those at St Leonards in St Andrews and The High School of Dundee.

General Description
Beautifully renovated by the current owners with careful consideration given to its heritage, this three-floor Category C-listed townhouse steps from St Monan’s harbour is characterised by historic charm and thoughtful high quality modern finishes. Elegant parquet flooring and a calm colour palette welcome you into the ground floor entrance hallway, setting the scene for the impressive interiors. Here alongside useful shoe and coat storage, there is a bespoke and open utility area complete with built-in cupboards and a Belfast sink. You then move through to a stylish shower room finished in soothing matte black, grey, and white. Complete with a washbasin built into vanity and WC, it is a useful addition to the ground floor. Returning to the hallway, the principal double bedroom is flooded with natural light thanks to a south-west-facing aspect and triple sash and case windows. Decorated with plush carpeting and neutral wall finishes it is light and airy yet comfortable and inviting. Ascending the carpeted staircase from the hallway, the first floor hosts a spectacular south-west-facing open plan kitchen and living room with views across the harbour. Tastefully combining original features with the best in modern design, an exposed stone wall and sash and case windows sit alongside oak-engineered flooring, a custom-made dining table with built-in seating, and a contemporary kitchen. L-shaped in layout wall and floor cabinetry in a soft green is complemented by smooth black worktops and a colourful geometric tiled splashback. High-spec integrated appliances include an extractor hood, hob, eye-level grill, and oven. A log-burning stove and cast-iron radiators ensure the room despite its generous proportions remains warm and comfortable. There is a WC on this floor. The second floor is home to two sizeable double bedrooms, one of which spans the length of the residence and boasts a tranquil south-west-facing view of the harbour and Firth of Forth.
