Set over three elegant levels in the heart of Elie, this stunning Victorian home has been sympathetically refurbished to blend original period charm with luxurious modern living. Just a few minutes’ walk from the long sandy beach and the shops on Bank Street and Elie High Street, it’s perfectly placed for relaxed coastal breaks with family and friends – and with Elie’s golf course close by, it’s a fantastic choice for golfers too. Two small, well-behaved dogs are welcome (supplement applies), and Wi-Fi is provided. Behind the traditional main door on Bank Street, a terrazzo-floored hall and timber staircase lead up to the first floor. Here you’ll find a beautiful front lounge with high ceilings, bay window and southerly views over the rooftops towards the Firth of Forth and Elie Harbour. Comfortable sofas, armchairs in the bay, and a feature fireplace make it a lovely spot to unwind, with TV, Freeview, Firestick and DVD for quieter evenings. To the rear, a fully fitted L-shaped kitchen with Welsh dresser flows into the dining room, creating a sociable space for cooking and long shared meals. The kitchen is very well equipped, with gas hob, electric oven, two fridges, freezer, dishwasher, washer, dryer, microwave, blender and cafetière. This floor also has a calming king-size bedroom and a contemporary family bathroom with bath and separate shower. Upstairs, four further bedrooms offer flexible sleeping for up to 10 guests. At the front, two generous bedrooms with bay windows enjoy far-reaching sea views – one with a super-king bed, the other with a king-size. To the rear, a twin room and a double bedroom look over the garden towards the golf course. A smart shower room on this level keeps mornings and post-beach freshen-ups running smoothly. Outside, a large enclosed garden is mainly lawn with mature trees and herbaceous borders – a lovely, sheltered space for children to play or adults to relax.

Elie and Earlsferry are two of the most picturesque towns in the East Neuk with a beautiful long sandy beach and a pretty little harbour. The golf links are the feature that joins the beautiful villages of Earlsferry and Elie and the local population are justifiably proud of their ancient course. The course has evolved over the centuries from a simple links golfing tract in the 1500s to the fine 18 hole course it is today. Elie town centre has lots of little shops ranging from the Elie Deli, Carol's Ice Cream Shop and the pharmacy, all the way to The Ship by the Harbour with its beach cricket and good food. Everything in Elie and Earlsferry is within walking distance, be it the Elie Ness Lighthouse, the beaches, the Links golf course and many more facilities. The bus routes are all frequent and easy to use. Taxis are available to the surrounding towns and St Andrews. 15 mins walk to Elie town centre, 5 mins walk to Elie Golf Course and less than 1 mins walk to the long, sandy Elie & Earlsferry Beach. Supermarket available in Anstruther, but lots of small local shops in Elie will provide most of what you will need.
