Fantastic opportunity to purchase a stunning highly successful guest house, enviably situated on the edge of the historic town of St Andrews, a few minutes drive to the town centre, the famous Old Course, St Andrews Cathedral and Castle. This stunning, individually-designed detached property finished to a very high specification incorporates many superb modern features. The property has been cleverly designed to separate the guest house accommodation from the owners spacious accommodation. Unusual for a guest house, the owners have their own spacious private accommodation comprising a truly vast sitting room with Georgian style ceiling and two full height windows, superb living dining fully fitted luxury kitchen with two patio doors to wrap-around deck, which perfectly reflects todays desire for informal family living, utility room, spa room incorporating a seven person hot tub and patio door to deck, entrance hall with large cupboard plumbed for cloakroom, master bedroom with dressing room and en suite shower room, three further double bedrooms, two with en suite facilities.
The guest house accommodation features an attractive staircase and galleried landing overlooking the elegant reception hall below and comprises guest breakfasting room with double patio doors to deck, six guest bedrooms all with contemporary en suite facilities. The property also benefits from oak doors throughout, gas fired central heating and is fully double glazed. The low maintenance garden surrounding the property is mainly laid to stone chips and there is a wrap-around deck to the side and rear of the property and a further deck outside the guest breakfasting room. To the front of the property there are six parking spaces. Although the guest house has only been operating for a year and a half it has achieved an extremely high turnover to date with an excellent profit margin. It is very rare that a guest house the quality of Dukeside is offered to the market and as such should be viewed at the earliest opportunity.
